    Common Types of Train Accidents in Jacksonville

    Train accidents can occur for several reasons. These include:

    • Derailment
    • Railroad crossing collisions
    • A vehicle colliding with a train
    • Train colliding with another train
    • Train hitting a person

    While these are common reasons for train accidents, railroad crossings remain at the top of the list. More train accidents happen at railroad crossings than anywhere else in the U.S. Trains can stall on the track, posing a risk for oncoming locomotives. Vehicles can also get stuck on the track, and drivers may not always pay attention to crossing signs. At night, it’s not always easy to spot a train sitting on the tracks. This can result in a collision.

    Potential Damages After a Train Accident

    Every train accident case is different, but the recoverable damages are often the same. These include compensation for:

    • Medical expenses
    • Lost wages
    • Diminished earning capacity
    • Disability
    • Pain and suffering
    • Emotional distress
