  • Pedestrians, motorists, or cyclists who are in the crash area when the accident occurs
  • Passengers riding inside the train
  • Train operators or other railroad employees
Even though train accidents are less common than automobile accidents, the immense size and speed of a train often results in multiple catastrophic injuries and/or deaths. Examples of injuries caused by train accidents may include:
  • Loss of a limb, hand, or finger
  • Back injuries, spinal cord injuries
  • Broken bones and or bone fractures
  • Burn injuries
  • Crush injuries from being trapped beneath wreckage

  • Head injuries, concussions, and other traumatic brain injuries (TBI)
  • Nerve damage and/or damage to internal organs
  • Severe bruises and contusions
  • Soft tissue injuries, such as muscle sprains

CAUSES OF TRAIN DERAILMENTS AND RAILROAD ACCIDENTS

Whether the underlying cause of an Amtrak Train crash or SEPTA crash is the train operator negligence, most accidents originate back to a mistake that was made by an Amtrak or SEPTA employee. Many trains still operate with outdated technology that may not meet today’s safety requirements. Failure to update this technology places potential victims at risk of severe injury or death.
