This property is' not so possessed and used. It is used as a trolley road, which is not a railroad use. Camden and Atlantic Railroad Co. v. Atlantic City, 29 Vroom 316.
The character of the property taxed is therefore that of property not used for railroad purposes, and it has been lawfully taxed by Jersey City alone.
