Utah Train Accidents

In 2007, the Bureau of Land Management in Utah conducted a safety inspection regarding areas of the workplace, including workplaces that involve any type of interaction with railroads. Unfortunately, when a train accident occurs, it is usually a worker on duty that is injured or killed as a result. The inspection process will involve training staff members better and making sure everyone recognizes safety hazards. When one worker is negligent, another worker may wind up suffering because of it.

According to U.S. Government sources, in 2007 there were 89 reported railroad accidents/incidents in the State of Utah resulting in 45 deaths or injuries. During the ten years of 1998 to 2007 there were 1,059 reported train accidents/incidents causing 686 deaths or injuries in the State of Utah.

In 2007 there were also 25 reported on-duty injuries to railroad employees in the State of Utah. For the ten years of 1998 to 2007 there were 481 reported on-duty injuries to railroad employees.

The number of reported highway-rail collisions in Utah totaled 15 in the year 2007. These resulted in 6 injuries in 2007. Over the ten year period of 1998 to 2007 there were 178 reported highway-rail collisions resulting in 88 deaths or injuries.
