Hendrickson represents the families of those who have been lost in train tragedies.
Most train accidents occur from either two trains colliding, trains hitting cars or pedestrians at railroad crossings, and single trains coming off the tracks. These accidents can typically be attributed to damaged or poorly maintained tracks, derailing, inexperienced drivers at crossings, or mechanical failure. Insufficient safety precautions at crossings play a part in many of the collisions that occur throughout the country.
