The lawsuit stated that “Union Pacific’s engineer and conductor could have stopped the train before striking the plaintiff if the lights on the locomotive were bright enough to illuminate [the] plaintiff on the tracks.'

Johnson’s attorneys, Kyle Findley of Arnold & Itkin Lawfirm, argued that Union Pacific train operators failed to adhere to their own safety manual which requires operators to “take the safe course …. In case of doubt or uncertainty.”

Evidence showcased at the trial proved that the operators of the train did not apply brakes until they were within 50 feet of her vehicle.
