It has happened in many cases, almost as a matter of routine. In grade crossing accidents caused by vehicles that disregard gates,lights & bells, the railroad will come after the individual, the individuals insurance company or the driver of the vehicle's estate to recoup damages to its equiptment, at the very least.In this case, its safe to assume that the M-7 involved is totaled. The cost of that, cost of labor involved in the cleanup, & repairs to the right of way,compensation for the deceised & hospitalization costs...etc..etc. Bottom line here, as a guess, were talking several million $$$ here. |
