A man walking near the train tracks at Frankford Road in Carrollton, a suburb of Dallas, Texas, died when a Denton County Transportation Authority (DCTA) commuter train struck and killed him. The DCTA connects with the Dallas Area Rapid Transit’s (DART) Green Line, which connects much of the D/FW area by light rail.
Today’s accident isn’t the first involving Dallas area trains. Earlier this year, school children on a DART platform were injured when a DART escalator malfunctioned, throwing them down the stairs to the subterranean platform below. Several people were also injured in June when DART and Trinity Railway Express (TRE) trains were responsible for carrying thousands of North Texans to the Dallas Mavericks victory parade in downtown Dallas.
Have you been injured by a Dallas area train? You’re not alone. D/FW trains are responsible for safely transporting paying riders. Personal injury isn’t part of the bargain. Don’t sit on your rights!
