Administrative History

Annual reports were submitted by railroad companies to the Public Service Commission pursuant to Section 46 of Chapter 429 of the Laws of 1907. The reports were previously filed with the New York State Board of Railroad Commissioners as authorized by Chapter 525 of the Laws of 1890. That commission was abolished and its duties, powers and functions transferred to the Public Service Commission by section 80 of Chapter 429, Laws of 1907.
