FREIGHT TRAIN CRASHES INTO MOTOR HOME IN BURLINGAME, CA.—? CALL TRAIN ACCIDENT INJURY LAWYERS IF YOU’VE BEEN INJURED.
Many may remember the deadly train accident in Southern California a couple of years ago in which dozens of people were killed when the train engineer failed to stop in time. Train accidents may occur more frequently than many people think. The size and weight of its cargo makes the train incredibly difficult to stop in a short period of time. Often, trains will travel at a reduced speed through towns or cities, but accidents still may happen as a result of negligence, or some other event.

On April 25, 2009 in Burlingame, a city south of San Francisco, a freight train struck a motor home that was stalled on the tracks. The motor home belonged to a couple from Oregon, and was stuck on the tracks near Broadway Avenue. The RV’s driver and other good Samaritans were attempting to push the RV over the tracks when they saw the train approaching quickly. The train was unable to stop and slammed into the RV just seconds after the people ran to safety. No one was injured by buildings and vehicles in the area reported minor to moderate damage from the flying debris. There is no report whether the engine of the train suffered any damage. Caltrain, which shares the same railroad tracks, was delayed for hours after the accident.
