Amtrak Warehouse Clerk receives compensation for injury

Amtrak agreed to settle a 53-year-old Philadelphia Amtrak warehouse clerk's claim for back injuries he sustained when he fell in a truck trailer parking lot in 1998. The settlement came during the first day of trial in federal court in Philadelphia. The clerk slipped and wrenched his back while working the night shift in an a lot used to store truck trailers in Amtrak’s Penn Coach Yard in Philadelphia. There was evidence that Amtrak did no inspections, maintenance, repair of the unlighted parking lot. Over time, the lot developed potholes and accumulated debris, which made it difficult to walk, especially at night in the dark.

Awarded: $190,000
