§ 123. Power of commissioner to order changes in time schedules;

running of additional cars and trains. If, in the judgment of the

commissioner, any railroad company or street railroad company does not

run trains enough or cars enough or possess or operate motive power

enough, reasonably to accommodate the traffic, passenger and freight,

transported by or offered for transportation to it, or does not run its

trains or cars with sufficient frequency or at a reasonable or proper

time having regard to safety, or does not run any train or trains, car

or cars, upon a reasonable time schedule for the run, the commissioner

shall, after a hearing either on his own motion or after complaint, have

power to make an order directing any such railroad company or street

railroad company to increase the number of its trains or of its cars or

its motive power or to change the time for starting its trains or cars

or to change the time schedule for the run of any train or car or make

any other suitable order that the commissioner may determine reasonably

necessary to accommodate and transport the traffic, passenger or

freight, transported or offered for transportation.
