Train accidents often occur because of human error, problems with the track, equipment, and/or signal. Oftentimes many people are injured because of train accidents. There are many factors that lead to a railroad accident and there are many people who may be liable. It is the responsibility of the railroad company to maintain the tracks and the train. But truck and car drivers are responsible if they do not follow laws that are intended to protect against accidents. People who are injured in train accidents may be compensated for their injury, lost income, and pain and suffering.
Neffs is a small village in North Whitehall Township in Lehigh County, Pennsylvania, United States. Neffs is located at the junction of Pennsylvania Routes 873 and 329, about one mile north of Schnecksville. Historically, the town was called Unionville, after the Union Church that was established there in 1797. The first store was built in 1815. The current town name is a reference to Abraham Neff, the first postmaster at the Neffs post office. Neff laid out the village while running a coach business and a local hotel. The area was then called Neffsville, which was later shortened to Neffs. The current day Neffs post office was built in 1967. At that time the first non-agricultural manufacturing plant was built in Neffs by Ted Ambrosino, who established Ambro Fashions. The town was so concerned about the influx of additional mail and post office activity, that it applied for and won, a federal grant to build an upgraded modern post office facility. The U.S. Postal Code (zip code) for Neffs, PA is 18065.
