A woman has filed a lawsuit against Metra after a toilet exploded and caused her "injuries of a 'personal and pecuniary nature,'" WBBM 780 reports. Specific details aren't discussed at great length but the word "splattered" is mentioned so you can use your imagination. Julianna Mandernach claimed the January 2009 incident occurred when she flushed a toilet on board a car on the the Chicago-to-Joliet/Rock Island line. The amount of damages sought was not announced and her attorney refused comment on the specific nature of her injuries.
