Train accident

Train accidents are fortunately very rare in this country. When a rail accident happens it becomes a major news story, in particular because of the injuries that can be caused. A serious train accident involving derailment or collision is often catastrophic and can result in fatalities and serious injuries, including life-threatening burns. In a less serious train accident, maybe a low speed derailment, passengers may still experience painful injuries as they are thrown around their carriage.

Some railway accidents may not involve the train itself and could involve a slip or trip on a station platform or when embarking and debarking the train.

Personal injury compensation claim
If you or a loved one has been involved in a train accident then you may be entitled to claim personal injury compensation from the rail company involved. YouClaim can help you to do this and will guide you through the process compassionately and professionally. If the accident was caused by defects on the track, equipment or premises, or by employee error, then the train company is likely to be found liable. If an independent maintenance contractor has carried out work on the railway then they will be liable to pay accident compensation if their labour is found to be defective. If a collision was the cause of injury then the train driver could be found responsible, if proven to have been negligent.
