franchises, or any part thereof, to any other railroad corporation, whether
organized under the laws of this state or of any other state or territory, or
under any Act of Congress, upon such terms and conditions as its board of
directors deem expedient and for the best interests of the corporation, when
and as authorized by the affirmative vote of stockholders holding stock in the
corporation entitling them to exercise not less than 66 2/3 percent of the
voting power, given at a stockholders meeting called for that purpose, or when

receiving the conveyance or lease may hold and operate the railroad franchise
and property within this state, build and operate extensions or branches
