Mum of straight-A student, 16, killed by train sues Network Rail for £22,000 mirror.co.uk

A mum whose teenage daughter was killed by a 'silent' night train is suing Network Rail over her child's death. Straight-A student Milena Gagic, 16, died instantly when she was hit by the vehicle, which was travelling at around 55mph, at the level crossing in Halifax, West Yorkshire, in December 2014. She had gone to the crossing late at night with her best friend, Amelia Hustwick, because it was 'a nice place to hang out', Central London County Court heard. They sat between the train tracks 'laughing and giggling' because they wrongly believed trains did not run at night.
