Network Rail is being sued by the son of a couple killed when their car collided with a train at a level crossing in Caithness two years ago.
Angus MacKay and his wife Margaret, both 81, from Inverness, and Mr MacKay^s brother Donald, 66, of Latheron, died in the incident.
The MacKays^ son, Donald, said he hoped his action would highlight what he said were shortcomings in crossing safety.
Network Rail said it could not comment on the legal action at this stage.
The crash happened at an unmanned, gate-free level crossing in Halkirk in September 2009.
