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.
Rosedale is an unincorporated community in Braxton and Gilmer counties in the U.S. state of West Virginia. It lies at an elevation of 778 feet (237 m). The town throughout the 1950's and 1960's was very large due to a boom in natural gas and was heavily populated. However, the boom ended around the 1970's and the town greatly diminished. The population dropped severely as well. Rosedale was also home to Rosedale Elementary School until it was removed due to population drop.
