Train Accidents
Despite ongoing measures to increase the overall safety of railroad transportation, train accidents continue to occur at an alarming rate. The result of these horrific accidents are traumatic, and can cause life-altering injuries and even death.
We rely on trains for many different reasons; to travel, to bring us to and from work, to transport goods and services and to cart-away hazardous materials. Considering the frequency in which this mode of transportation is used, it is no surprise that train accidents do happen. An accident can happen for any number of reasons; collision with another train, vehicle or person, mechanical failure, driver negligence or operator fatigue. Regardless of what causes the incident, train and subway accidents are extremely serious and can have terrible results.
An additional concern for train passengers is robbery, assault, rape, slip and falls and malfunctioning equipment. Unsuspecting travelers have unfortunately become a common target for thieves and vandals. Sub-par walkway, ramp and curb conditions have caused unnecessary slips trips and falls. If you or someone you know has been involved in an incident involving a train, you may be able to recover a significant monetary reward for your injuries.

The facts are substantial; the Federal Railroad Administration reports that on average, 3000 train-related accidents happen every year, resulting in nearly 1000 fatalities. Thousands more suffer from significant injuries caused by the accident while hundreds more are injured from physical assaults. Additionally, train accidents involving hazardous materials have resulted in severe environmental damage, causing increased concern by the communities that live in the surrounding areas where these accidents have occurred.
