So Cal train accidents can involve commuter trails, freight rail lines, cars, or pedestrians, and that means that road vehicle or train occupants can get hurt or killed in crashes. When a commuter train is involved in a crash, multiple partied may be responsible: train engineers, rail maintenance companies, Metrolink, and others. Discovering who is to blame is complicated, so if you or a loved one has been involved in a train-related accident in the San Fernando Valley, get legal help now at 1-800-ALAWPRO.

A San Fernando Valley chain-reaction crash involving a Metrolink commuter train resulted in the injuries of 6 people including train, car and pickup truck occupants. The train hit a pickup truck that had been struck by a car attempting to avoid an ambulance. The crash happened on railroad tracks running parallel to a major road in Pacoima. Four car and truck passengers suffered major injuries while 8 train passengers had minor injuries.

Meanwhile Metrolink is in the news for other reasons: bypassing a federally safety requirement. Apparently Metrolink was allowed a waiver, allowing the rail service to bypass posting signs reminding their train operators to slow down after exiting a rail station. An LA area train crash that killed more than two dozen people last year allegedly involved the engineer speeding after leaving a station.
