On a snowy night in Selkirk, New York, a Conrail conductor tripped in a pothole in the employee parking lot and fell onto his shoulder. The injury required a surgical repair of a torn rotator cuff and extensive physical therapy and treatment for chronic pain. Despite surgery, the injury prevented the conductor from returning to work after 28 years of working for the railroad. On the second day of trial in the United States District Court in Albany, Conrail agreed to pay the locomotive conductor $472,000 to settle the case.
