Roberts v. B and O 8 W case re damages for injuries
The decision holds that a workman need not know about defective conditions to negate constructive notice if he had no opportunity to know. A railroad that builds two tracks so close that cars may cut clear is liable to a switchman injured while performing his duties, even if he is unaware of the improper construction. A switchman is not required to inspect yard tracks for defects.
