Railroad Accident Reconstruction
Every year, trains move approximately 33% of all American exports across 140,000 miles of rails. And around 40% of all long-distance freight is moved by trains. As a society, we rely on the safety and functionality of the rail system for economic stability. So, when something goes wrong, a railroad accident reconstruction can be a pivotal piece of evidence.
Our accident reconstruction services are specifically tailored for lawyers, legal teams, and law offices working with injury clients.

Our dedication to the truth is rooted in the evidence of each and every reconstruction we work on.

Railroad Accident Reconstruction for FELA and Personal Injury Claims
The United States is a country that heavily relies on motor vehicle travel. We’re used to traveling by car and sharing the road with big tractor-trailers. What we’re far less familiar with is the functionality of railroads and trains.
Whether you’re a lawyer helping an injured worker seek FELA benefits or are part of a legal team pursuing compensation for a victim hurt in a train crash, it’s your job to educate the investigators and jurors about the nature of train travel, transportation, and accidents.
Visual aids are a necessary component of successful FELA, personal injury, and wrongful death claims. We say this because today’s courtrooms rely on so much more than just verbal testimony.
Our railroad accident reconstructions can be used as admissible pieces of evidence in cases against even some of the biggest freight and railroad companies, like:
- BNSF Railway
- Union Pacific
- CSX Transportation
- Canadian National Railway
- Norfolk Southern Railway
Improving Your Chance at Fair Compensation
The key to a successful claim is in the details. Broad facts don’t win cases—specific evidence does. Advocacy Digital Media proudly partners with lawyers to highlight important and relevant evidence, breaking facts of the case down into manageable chunks that are easily understood by jurors.
We can help you illustrate and animate virtually every aspect of a railroad accident, no matter how complex. This includes:
- Multiple perspectives (including victim’s perspective, engineer’s perspective, overhead shots, and more)
- Mechanical failures
- Gate arm or crossing signal malfunctions
- Speed of the engine and involved vehicles
- Mechanism of derailments
It’s your job to stand up and fight on behalf of your client. It’s our job to make sure you’re equipped with the visual tools and legal demonstratives you need to be in your best fighting condition.
