MONCTON, N.B.—A man waited an “excruciatingly long time” on railway tracks after his electric wheelchair allegedly became stuck, according to a new lawsuit claiming damages in his death. “Stephen Harel knew his fate. He knew the train was going to hit and kill him, and that must have been awful,” lawyer Brian Murphy said Monday. “The CN train could not stop in time. No one is faulting the conductor of the CN train, but there is no way he could stop from colliding with Stephen Harel,” Murphy said.
