A "Shocking" Lawsuit |

I'm wondering if the fact that catenary wire is not easily or normally accessible to people who aren't employees, drunk or otherwise, might be a factor in Amtrak's defense. Whether barriers such as fences or gates were in place at the yard's entrances, OTOH, will certainly be at issue here. But, as countless incidents involving heavy machinery such as Amtrak trains have shown, drunkenness and stupidity can, and does, overcome even the most creative engineering or administrative controls. |
