Description
This is an appeal from a decree which permanently enjoined appellants, defendants below, from enforcing a certain ordinance passed by the City of Duluth, insofar as such ordinance prohibits the use of a certain General, Electric 44-ton Diesel electric engine in performing certain switching movements in the switching yards of appellee in the said city, unless the engine be manned with a crew of not less than one qualified engineer or operator and one qualified fireman or helper. Defendants, who are here appellants, are officers of the City of Duluth, Minnesota, while the plaintiff is a railway company organized under the laws of the State of Wisconsin, owning and operating a system of railroads extending from a point on Lake Superior, in Wisconsin, into and through the State of Minnesota, with lines from St. Paul, Minnesota, to Duluth, Minnesota, and through and into the State of North Dakota and other states, and is a common carrier by railroad of interstate and intrastate commerce. The parties will be referred to as they were designated in the lower court.
