Reading the string of replies about the "Ghost Train" crossing fatalities in Missouri got to me thinking about the crossing accident near Castle Rock, WA on July 3, 2006 where 4 were killed when the car pulled out into the path of a sounthbound Talgo after a northbound freight had cleared the crossing on the first of two tracks. This occurred on a private crossing after the end of a county road and a suit was filed wanting the railroad or county to pay damages because the crossing not being better protected. Does anyone recall how this came out? I was able to Google enough information to get the date of the accident, but could not find any outcome of the case. I was working out of the area by June 2007 for a period of time and never saw any more on the case.

Thanks,
Dan Hein
