SMITH, Judge.

David J. Felder brought this action under the Federal Employers Liability Act seeking damages for injuries which he sustained while employed as a switchman by Union Pacific Railroad. A jury found the railroad negligent and thus liable for damages. The trial court initially entered judgment in the amount of $39,278, including $4,278, in pre-judgment interest. However, the pre-judgment interest was subsequently deleted from the award.
