There are numerous federal and state regulations governing the conduct of railroads, while at the same time creating some protection for railroads, even when they cause injuries to individuals. For example, workers’ compensation claims by railroad employees are covered under a separate federal law known as the Federal Employers’ Liability Act of 1907 (FELA).
