Case Details

Barbara Greenstreet, 42, of Virginia Beach, was injured in the wreck of the 'Old 611' steam engine, sustaining back injuries that required disc removal and constant pain, leaving her unable to work. She won a $900,000 verdict from a Portsmouth jury.

Additional Notes

Attorney Willard J. Moody, Sr. represented Ms. Greenstreet. She received four times more than the $200,000 settlement offer. The accident also led to headaches and a brain tumor diagnosis a year later, which her lawyer argued was aggravated by the incident.
