Art. 6270. [6416] [4360] SHALL TAKE SUBJECT TO LIEN. Any
company organized under the preceding article shall take the
property so purchased subject to all incumbrances, judgments,
claims, suits, claims for damages and for right of way against the
old company and subject to all debts and claims for damages accruing
against any receiver who may have been appointed for the old company
to the same extent that such property would have been liable in the
hands of the railroad company from which it was purchased; and such
new company may be made a party to every suit pending against the
company from which it is purchased, or which may be pending against
any receiver of such company, to enforce any right against such new
company; and the new company may be sued to enforce any such
rights, without joining the old company, or the receiver; and, in
case any judgment has been rendered against the old company, or
against a receiver for such company, and for which the property is
liable, execution may be issued on such judgment against such
property in the possession of the new company without any suit
therefor. When a corporation is formed under the provisions of the
preceding article, service of process may be had upon any agent of
such corporation in any county where suit may be pending. Such
service shall bind each railroad operated or owned under such
charter, in the same manner as if it were one railroad.
