Fargo, ND (Forum News Service) - BNSF Railway, owner of an oil tanker
train that derailed near Casselton and exploded in 2013, says that federal
law may shield it from a civil lawsuit filed last month by the train's
engineer.
.
Any injuries suffered by the engineer, Bryan Thompson of Fargo, "are the
result of unknown causes for which BNSF is not responsible," the rail
giant said in an answer to Thompson's complaint.
.
Thompson claims he has suffered from PTSD since the Dec. 30 accident, when
the oil tanker he was operating collided with an oncoming grain train that
veered off the tracks just west of Casselton. The result was a dramatic
scene of fireballs and smoke rising into the air as crude oil burned.
.
BNSF was using a defective car, and the company did not properly inspect
its tracks, Thompson alleges in his lawsuit, filed in Cass County District
Court. The company also did not warn him of the dangers he faced carrying
crude oil on the rails, he claims.
.
BNSF accepts no responsibility for any damages in the answer, which was
provided to The Forum by Thompson's attorney.
