Investigation Summary
Employee #1 was removing the chocks from an unstable stack of 60 ft steel railroad rails. Four bundles of three rails each were being hoisted at one time by a forklift, each bundle weighing 700 lb. During a lift, one of the bundles became caught up in the stack by a heading wire and eventually fell from the forks. It is not known if this bundle struck Employee #1 when it fell, or if the rails turned on their sides or were hoisted on their sides, swung several feet and struck him. Employee #1 died of head, back, and leg injuries.
