Subdivision 1. Publications to use. Every railway company, telegraph company, express company, or other company or corporation doing business as a common carrier which has or maintains a station in a city within the state shall publish in its printed matter published for the public, and use as the name of that station only, the name of the city in which the station is located or by which the city is or may be incorporated.

A railway company, telegraph company, express company, or other common carrier is prohibited from using or continuing to use within the state a different name for its station from that of the city where the station is located or from that which is in use by the local government post office, unless a city or post office on the same division of a railroad in this state has a name which is so similar as to be confusing in the dispatch of train orders.
