Ohio Revised Code Title XXXVII. Health Safety Morals § 3707.011

(A) As used in this section, “railroad company” means a suburban railroad company or an interurban railroad company, as those terms are defined in section 4905.03 of the Revised Code.

(B) A railroad company shall maintain railroad rights-of-way that it owns or controls and that are located within a city and within unincorporated areas of townships surrounded by the city in such condition as to keep them free of refuse of any kind or quantity reasonably expected to be dangerous to life or health, including at least garbage, bottles or other containers, and paper. Failure to so maintain such rights-of-way is a nuisance subject to this chapter.

(C) A railroad company may bring a civil action to recover its costs in complying with this section, including attorney's fees, from the persons or entities responsible for depositing refuse on the rights-of-way.
