"The county has spent about $3.5 million on the case....They will, however, continue their fight for train safety" - think of how much safety could have been improved around local road crossings with that $3.5 million wasted...

Well if they had spent it on improvements then the POS lawyers would not have lined there pockets. I was told years back that in WA state they had there income exempt from taxes that other business had to pay for there labor workers.   They are the ones that drive things like the suits you see on TV ads the one for aspestos it a rip off as that huge pile, not the smaller one they pay out of is still growing intrest as they have it tied up in courth and have had for may years. So nothing new about this dea. Just taxpayer money.
