A CSX signal maintainer from Savannah, Georgia, suffered a back injury that required surgery after lifting a spool of wire that weighed over 100 lbs. onto the back of his CSX maintenance truck. The truck had no winch or hoist to load heavy materials so everything had to be loaded by hand, even though signal maintainers were required to regularly handle equipment weighing in excess of 100 lbs. CSX claimed the signal maintainer injured his back deer hunting. After two days of trial, the case settled for $350,000.
