§ 4951.46.
If any company or person neglects or refuses to construct and maintain a fence as
provided in section 4951.45 of the Revised Code , the owner of any land abutting on the line of the right of way of such person or
company may construct the fence, so far as his lands abut on the right of way. When such owner has completed the fence, he may present for payment, to the ticket
agent of the company at the station nearest the track so fenced, an itemized statement
of the expenses of such construction. If such person or company neglects or refuses for thirty days to pay such account,
such landowner may recover the reasonable cost of such fence from the owner of the
railroad or railway in any court of competent jurisdiction.
