A train accident in the University Park, Illinois area has reportedly resulted in a $6 million settlement. According to reports, a young woman died when a train slammed into her vehicle two years ago. As a result, the family filed a wrongful death suit that has since been settled. It is reported that the gates, lights and bells at the train crossing were not working at the time of the train accident.
