     § 2301.  Operation and distribution of facilities of common
                carriers.
        Every common carrier shall furnish a reasonably sufficient
     number of safe facilities, and run and operate the same with
     such motive power as may reasonably be required, in the
     transportation of all such passengers or property as may seek,
     or be offered to it, for such transportation, and shall operate
     its facilities with sufficient frequency, at such reasonable and
     proper times, and to and from such stations or points, as the
     commission, having regard to the accommodation, convenience, and
     safety of the public, may require; and, when required by the
     commission, shall change the time schedule for the operation of
     its facilities, and, generally, shall make any other
     arrangements and improvements in its service which the
     commission may require. If, at any particular time, a common
     carrier may not have sufficient facilities to meet the
     requirements for the transportation of property, then it shall
     lawfully distribute all available facilities among the several
     applicants therefor without discrimination between shippers,
     localities, or competitive or noncompetitive points, in
     accordance with such regulations as the commission may
     prescribe. Such regulations, in the case of common carriers also
     engaged in interstate commerce, shall conform so far as
     practicable to those prescribed by any Federal regulatory body
     on the subject. Preference may always be given in the supply of
     facilities for transportation of fuel, livestock, or perishable
     matter.
