MEMORANDUM AND ORDER
JULIE A. ROBINSON, District Judge.Plaintiffs Kiatona Turner and Therman Turner, Jr. bring this wrongful death and survival action to recover damages arising from the collision between a Union Pacific train and a pickup truck operated by their father, Therman Turner.1 Melissa Stone-barger brings this action individually and as the Representative of the Estate of Veronica Hogle, to recover for the wrongful death and survival of her daughter, who was a passenger in Mr. Turner’s vehicle. The accident underlying this case occurred on October 29, 2012, at a railroad grade crossing in Brown County, near Hiawatha, Kansas. This matter is presently *1233before the Court upon Defendant Union Pacific Railroad Company’s (“Union Pacific”) Motions for Summary Judgment 1) seeking dismissal of Plaintiffs’ negligence claims on the grounds'that they are either preempted by the Federal Railroad Safety Act, 49 U.S.C. § 20101 et seq. (“FRSA”), or otherwise fail as a matter of Kansas law (Doc. 83); 2) seeking dismissal of Plaintiffs’ claims on the grounds that they are barred by the Kansas Statute of Repose, K.S.A. 60-513(b) (Doc. 85); and 3) seeking an order that Plaintiffs’ survival claims fail as a matter of law (Doc. 87).2 For the reasons discussed in detail below, the Court grants in part Union Pacific’s motion with respect to preemption of Plaintiffs’ inadequate warning devices claim; denies the motion with respect to Plaintiffs’ unusually dangerous/ultrahazardous crossing claim under Kansas law; denies the motion with respect to Union Pacific’s statute of repose defense; and grants Union Pacific’s motion with respect to Plaintiffs’ claims for punitive damages based on their survival claims.
1. Summary Judgment Standard
Summary judgment is appropriate if the moving party “shows that there is no genuine dispute as to any material fact and the movant is entitled to judgment as a matter of law.”3 A fact is only material under this standard if a dispute over it would affect the outcome of the suit.4 An issue is only genuine if it “is such that a reasonable jury could return a verdict for the nonmoving party.”5 The inquiry essentially determines if there is a need for trial, or whether the evidence “is so one-sided that one party must prevail as a matter of law.”6
The moving party bears the initial burden of providing the court with the basis for the motion and identifying those portions of the record that show the absence of a genuine issue of material fact.7 When the moving party does not have the ultimate burden of persuasion at trial, it has both the initial burden of production on a motion for summary judgment and the burden of establishing that summary judgment is appropriate as a matter of law.8 “The moving party may carry its initial burden either by producing affirmative evidence negating an essential element of the non-moving party’s claim, or by showing that the non-moving party does not have enough evidence to carry its burden of persuasion at trial.”9
Conversely, if the moving party has the burden of proof, a more stringent summary judgment standard applies. Where the movant bears the burden of proof on a claim or defense, to obtain summary judgment, it cannot force the nonmoving party to come forward with “specific facts showing there [is] a genuine issue for trial” merely by pointing to parts of the record that it believes illustrate the absence of a *1234genuine issue of material fact.10 Instead, the moving party must establish, as a matter of law, all essential elements of the issue before the nonmoving party can be obligated to bring forward any specific facts alleged to rebut the movant’s case.11 In this case, Union Pacific bears the burden on two affirmative defenses — preemption and statute of repose.
If the moving party properly supports its motion, the burden shifts to the non-moving party, “who may not rest upon the mere allegation or denials of his pleadings, but must set forth specific facts showing that there is a genuine issue for trial.” 12 In setting forward these specific facts, the nonmovant must identify the facts “by reference to affidavits, deposition transcripts, or specific exhibits incorporated therein.” 13 If the evidence offered in opposition to summary judgment is merely colorable or is not significantly probative, summary judgment may be granted.14 A party opposing summary judgment “cannot rely on ignorance of the facts, on speculation, or on suspicion, and may not escape summary judgment in the mere hope that something will turn up at trial.”15 Put simply, the nonmoving party must “do more than simply show there is some metaphysical doubt as to the material facts.” 16
Finally, summary judgment is not a “disfavored procedural shortcut”; on the contrary, it is an important procedure “designed to secure the just, speedy and inexpensive determination of every action.”17
II. Evidentiary Objections
The parties have objected to the admissibility of certain evidence submitted in support of summary judgment. The Court addresses them at this time.
A. Objections to Affidavits Offered by Union Pacific
Plaintiffs object to the affidavits of Albert Cathcart and Paul Fulsom on the grounds that they are not based on personal knowledge and are thus inadmissible under Fed.R.Evid. 602. Rule 602 requires that a testifying witness “ha[ve] personal knowledge of the matter” testified to.18 Also, Fed.R.Civ.P. 56(c) requires that affidavits be made on personal knowledge and “set forth such facts as would be admissible in evidence.... The court may permit affidavits to be supplemented or opposed by depositions, answers to interrogatories, or further affidavits.” “Under the personal knowledge standard, an affidavit is inadmissible if ‘the witness could ,not have actually perceived or observed that which he testifies to.’ ”19 Statements of “mere belief in an affidavit must be disregarded.”20
*1235Plaintiffs object to the affidavit of Albert Cathcart, who was employed by the Kansas Department of Transportation (“KDOT”),21 and Paul Fulsom, a private contractor.22 Plaintiffs urge that Cathcart and Fulsom lack personal knowledge of the work done on the particular subject crossing at issue in this case, and that their testimony is based on merely looking at documents.
Rule 602 recognizes that the personal knowledge requirement can be provided by the witness himself, stating “[e]vi-dence to prove personal knowledge may consist of the witness’s own testimony.”23 Here, both witnesses attest that they have “personal knowledge of the matters set forth in [their] Declaration^] and [were] competent to testify thereto.” “Rule 56[ (c) ]’s requirements of personal knowledge and competence to testify may also be inferred if it is clear from the context of the affidavit that the affiant is testifying from personal knowledge.”24 Here, it is clear from the context of the declarations that both Cathcart and Fulsom are competent to testify to the matters discussed in their respective declarations.
Cathcart was a long time KDOT employee, and responsible for administering projects and maintaining KDOT’s project files regarding federally funded highway-railroad grade crossing sign placement projects for the State of Kansas. In the early 1990’s, KDOT undertook Project 106 X-1922-01 (“the Project”), which used federal funds to install new reflectorized cross-bucks and advance warning signs at various railroad grade crossings in several counties in Kansas, including Brown County. Cathcart was the Coordinating Engineer for the Project. Fulsom was the project superintendent for the private contractor that was awarded work done on the Project, Paul J. Fulsom, Inc., and “was personally involved with this work and was present at the locations where this work was performed.” The Court finds that personal knowledge of the subject matter attested to can be inferred based on the declarants’ respective positions with KDOT and Paul J. Fulsom, Inc. Further, the statements made in both declarations are particular and detailed, which further supports their attestations of personal knowledge.25 Plaintiffs’ objections are overruled.
B. Objection to Expert Report of James Loumiet
Union Pacific objects to the consideration of James Loumiet’s unsworn expert report to avoid summary judgment. Although Mr. Loumiet executed a separate affidavit summarily stating his opinion on the sight-restrictions, it- does not verify or incorporate his expert report.26 This court has repeatedly emphasized that, when tested at summary judgment, the proponent of expert testimony may not simply *1236present the unsworn report of the proposed expert.27 Plaintiffs’ failure is compounded by their failure to include this evidence in a separate statement of additional facts, as discussed below. Nevertheless, Mr. Loumiet’s unverified report is cited in Union Pacific’s statement of un-controverted facts and attached to its memorandum in support of summary judgment.28 Rule 56(c) states that “[a] party may object that the material cited to support or dispute a fact must be presented in a form that would be admissible in evidence.” 29 There is no dispute at this point that the facts contained within the expert report could be reduced to admissible evidence at trial, since at this point there have been no Daubert motions filed and Mr. Loumiet would presumably testify at trial; Rule 56(c) states that the objection is proper only when the facts cannot be presented in an admissible form.30 Accordingly, the Court will consider Mr. Loum-iet’s expert report on summary judgment.
III. Uncontroverted Facts
Before reaching the uncontroverted facts, the Court addresses Plaintiffs’ failure to comply with the local rule for summary judgment responses, which requires: “if the party opposing summary judgment relies on any facts not contained in the movant’s memorandum, that party shall set forth each additional fact in a separately numbered paragraph, supported by references to the record, in the manner required by subsection (a), above.”31 As noted by Union Pacific, Plaintiffs have included numerous factual matters that they claim create a genuine issue of material fact, but do not set forth any statement of additional facts in the manner required by the rule. Instead of setting forth the additional facts in separately numbered paragraphs, supported by references to the record, Plaintiffs refer to the evidence in the argument portion of their response brief. Under D. Kan. Rule 56.1(b)(2), the Court considers only those facts that the parties include in their statement of facts, in numbered paragraphs with proper record citation and support.32 The Court does not consider facts that the parties discuss only in the argument section of their briefs and not in the statement of facts.33
*1237The following facts are either uncontro-verted, stipulated to, or viewed in the light most favorable to Plaintiffs, the non-moving parties.
On October 29, 2012, at approximately 9:55 a.m., Therman Turner was driving a 1999 Ford F-150 east on 260th Road in Hiawatha, Kansas. Veronica Hogle was a passenger in the truck. As Turner drove the truck east over the 260th Road railroad crossing, DOT Crossing No. 814-762E (“the Crossing”), it was struck by a Union Pacific train that was traveling north. Both Therman and Hogle were pronounced dead at the scene of the crash.
Warning Devices
On the date of the accident, two Union Pacific Claims Representatives, Clint Peb-sworth and William Herring, responded to and investigated the accident. As part of their investigation, the Claims Representatives took measurements and photographs at the scene.34 Two refleetorized cross-buck signs were located at the Crossing, one at the southwest corner, the other at the northeast corner.35 The series of photographs were taken while positioned 50, 25, and 15 feet west of the near rail at the crossing, with the camera facing south. Shown in the photographs at 25 feet is an approaching freight train and a railroad crossbuck sign. The photographs also depict the trees and other brush that existed at the time of the accident. Stephen Spare owns the property adjacent to the southwest quadrant of the crossing.
From 1970 until his retirement in 2008, Albert D. Cathcart was employed by KDOT.36 Cathcart’s work at KDOT included working in the position of Coordinating Engineer for KDOT’s Bureau of Design from 1994 to 2008. Cathcart was responsible for administering projects and maintaining KDOT’s project files regarding federally funded highway-railroad grade crossing sign placement projects for the State of Kansas. In the early 1990’s, KDOT undertook Project 106 X-1922-01 (“the Project”), which used federal funds to install new refleetorized crossbucks and advance warning signs at various Northeast Kansas & Missouri Railroad Company (“NEKM”) railroad grade crossings in several counties in Kansas, including Brown County. Cathcart was the Coordinating Engineer for the Project.
The KDOT Plan of Proposed Railroad Crossing Signing-Federal Aid Project document for the Project (“the Plan”) contains a table that identifies each of the NEKM crossings within Brown County, Kansas, at which warning devices were to be installed under the Project and for each crossing identified, the specific type and number of *1238warning devices to be installed.37 The Crossing was to receive two reflectorized crossbuck signs and two advance warning signs as part of the Project.38 KDOT bid out the work of placing the reflectorized railroad crossbuck signs and advance warning signs called for in the Project to private contractors. The private contracting company that won the bid for this work was Paul J. Fulsom, Inc.39 Paul J. Fulsom, Inc. completed the work for the Project, including the work in Brown County, Kansas, in accordance with the Plan and specifications for the Project in a satisfactory manner and in compliance with all applicable Federal and State rules and regulations on or before June 10,1997, and KDOT accepted and approved the work performed by Paul J. Fulsom, Inc. on or before July 10, 1997.40 KDOT paid Paul J; Fulsom, Inc. in full for all work performed as part of the Project, and all work was complete and approved on or before August 1,1997.
FHWA Project STP X192-(201) is the Federal Highway Administration (“FWHA”) designation for KDOT Project 106 X-1922-01. The Federal government funded 80% of the Project’s costs for railroad right-of-way sign installation, i.e., re-flectorized crossbuck signs, for FWHA Project STP X192-(201); the railroad funded the remaining 20% of costs. The Federal government funded 100% of the cost of the Project’s costs for installing advance warning signs. In other words, 80% of the costs of installing each reflec-torized crossbuck sign at each crossing that was included in FWHA Project STP X192-(201) and/or the KDOT Project was-paid for with Federal government money. The Federal government did not pay for the installation of reflectorized crossbuck signs at 80% of the crossings included in the Project, nor did the railroad pay for 20% of the crossings included in the Project. KDOT did not attempt to apportion the funding of grade crossing improvements in a manner that allocated 100% of federal funds for the improvement of 80% of the crossings within a specified cross-buck upgrade project, with the remaining 20% of the crossings funded entirely by the railroads.
Several sections of track and the railroad grade crossings that intersected that trackage, which were formerly owned by the NEKM, were purchased by Union Pacific in 1999. The former NEKM trackage and Crossing at issue in this case was included in that 1999 purchase.
Paul Fulsom was the project superintendent for a construction company known as Paul J. Fulsom, Inc.41 Paul J. Fulsom, Inc. was selected by KDOT through a bid process to perform the work called for in the KDOT Project. As project superintendent, Paul Fulsom personally managed and oversaw the work done by Paul J. Fulsom, Inc. on the Project. As part of the Project, Paul J. Fulsom, Inc. placed reflectorized crossbuck and advance warning signs at public grade crossings in Brown County, Kansas, unless these public grade crossings were already signalized with electronic signals, i.e., flashing lights and crossing gates. The work of Paul J. Fulsom, Inc. for the Project included the removal of existing crossbucks at public grade crossings along NEKM railroad tracks in various counties in the State of Kansas, and the installation of new reflec-torized crossbucks for those public grade *1239crossings. Pursuant to its contract with KDOT regarding the Project, Paul J. Ful-som, Inc. placed reflectorized crossbucks and advance warning signs at the railroad grade crossing that intersects 260th Road in Brown County, Kansas, known as DOT Crossing No. 814-762E, on or before June 10, 1997.42 Fulsom attests that he was personally involved with this work and was present at the locations where this work was performed and that the reflectorized crossbucks shown in photographs taken shortly after the October 29, 2012 accident are the same type as those that were installed by his company through the Project.
Train Horn
A post-accident horn test found the decibel output at an average of 99.0 decibels, which is above the Federal Railroad Administration (“FRA”) minimum of 96 decibels. Plaintiffs’ expert, James Loumiet, opines that the locomotive horn was sounded approximately 13.7 seconds before impact with Mr. Turner’s truck.
Track and Train Speed
Zebulon Kreifels is a Manager of Track Maintenance for Union Pacific, a position he has held since January 2011. Kreifels holds a certification as a qualified track inspector pursuant to 49 C.F.R. § 213.7, and he held this certification in October 2012. Kreifels was the Manager of Track Maintenance for the territory that included the crossing at issue in this case at'the time of the accident. In that capacity, Kreifels was responsible for ensuring that regular inspections of the railroad track were conducted to ensure whether the track complied with the safety standards imposed by the FRA as found in 49 C.F.R. Part 213. At the time of the accident, the track that went 'through the crossing had been designated by Union Pacific as Class 4 track under the FRA track safety standards, 49 C.F.R. § 213, and met all requirements for Class 4 track.
On and before October 29, 2012, the maximum track speed for Class 4 track is and was 60 miles per hour. The Event Recorder for the lead locomotive and the Track Image Recorder (“TIR”) from the lead locomotive show that the train was traveling approximately 41 miles per hour in its immediate approach to the crossing and shortly before the accident.
Ruth Turner, Mr. Turner’s ex-wife and mother of Kiatona Turner and Therman Turner, Jr., testified that he had driven and traveled over the subject crossing in both directions, east bound and west bound, on occasions prior to the date of the accident. Ms. Turner testified that she was unaware of any changes at or near the Crossing within the ten years preceding the accident in 2012, including changes to the signage, the conditions, or the vegetation in the quadrants and the terrain at or adjacent to the crossing. Melissa Stone-barger, Veronica Hogle’s mother, offered similar testimony
IV. Discussion
Union Pacific seeks summary judgment on Plaintiffs’ claims that allege Union Pacific was negligent because 1) it failed to install adequate warning devices; 2) the crossing was unusually dangerous or ultra hazardous; 3) the train was traveling at an excessive speed; 4) Union Pacific failed to properly sound the train’s horn or other audible warning devices; 5) the train crew failed to keep a proper lookout and negligently failed to slacken speed; 6) Union Pacific failed to clear its right-of-way of vegetation; and 7) the train sounded a “short” horn. Union Pacific argues further that 1) Therman Turner’s negligence *1240was the sole cause of the accident; 2) Plaintiffs’ claim is time-barred by the statute of repose; and 3) Plaintiffs are not entitled to an award of punitive damages. In their responses, Plaintiffs stipulated to drop, acquiesce and/or not pursue any survival claim as well as three negligence claims: 1) that the train was traveling at excessive speed; 2) that the train crew failed to keep a proper lookout and negligently failed to slacken speed; and 3) that the train crew failed to sound an emergency horn. Plaintiffs did not respond to Union Pacific’s argument regarding train horn audibility. The Court grants Union Pacific summary judgment on these claims.
A. Federal Preemption
Union Pacific contends that federal regulations preempt Plaintiffs’ inadequate warning device and unusually dangerous/ultrahazardous crossing claims under the FRSA preemption provision.43 The Supremacy Clause of the United States Constitution is the source of preemption.44 Under the Supremacy Clause, federal law trumps or preempts state law whenever the two are in conflict. “Preemption can be express or implied — either way, the effect is the same: preemption renders the relevant state law invalid.”45
The FRSA expressly preempts state railroad law. Subsection (a) of the FRSA preemption provision, 49 U.S.C. § 20106, outlines the scope of FRSA preemption: “Laws, regulations, and other orders related to railroad safety ... shall be nationally uniform to the extent practicable.”46 The FRSA does not preempt all railroad law: “A State may adopt or continue in force a law, regulation, or order related to railroad safety or security until the Secretary of Transportation ... prescribes a regulation or issués an order covering the subject matter of the State requirement.”47 Moreover, states may adopt a “more stringent law” if it is necessary to eliminate a “local safety or security hazard.”48 As the Supreme Court has noted, the FRSA “displays considerable solicitude for state law.”49
Before 2007, courts held that a federal regulation preempts state law under subsection (a) if the regulation “substantially subsume[s] the subject matter of the relevant state law.”50 The regulation must do more than simply “touch upon or relaté to [the] subject matter” of the state law.51 Congress amended the FRSA provision in 2007 by adding subsection (b), which is a “[cjlarification regarding State law causes of action”:
(1) Nothing in this section shall be construed to preempt an action under State law seeking damages for personal injury, death, or property damages alleging that a party—
*1241(A) has failed to comply with the Federal standard of care established by a regulation or order issued by the Secretary of Transportation ... or the Secretary of Homeland Security ..., covering the subject matter as provided in subsection (a) of this section;
(B) has failed to comply with its own plan, rule, or standard that it created pursuant to a regulation or order issued by either of the Secretaries; or
(C) has failed to comply with a State law, regulation, or order that is not compatible with subsection (a)(2).52
The 2007 amendment did not, however, change the language of subsection (a), and clarified the regulation to solve an ambiguity, rather than to change substantive law.53 Instead, the amendment preserves cases such as Norfolk Southern Railway Co. v. Shanklin,54 in which the Supreme Court analyzed whether a regulation covers state law.55 “The amendment ... clarifies that even when a regulation covers the subject matter of a claim, the claim can avoid preemption if the railroad violated a federal standard of care or its internal rule.”56
The preemption analysis under the amended FRSA requires a two-step process. First, the court “asks whether the defendant allegedly violated either a federal standard of care or an internal rule that was created pursuant to a federal regulation. If so, the plaintiffs claim avoids preemption.”57 If not, the court proceeds to the second step and “ask[s] whether any federal regulation covers the plaintiffs claim.”58 “A regulation covers — and thus preempts — the plaintiffs claim if it ‘substantially subsume[s] the subject matter of that claim,’ ” relying on precedent including cases that predate the 2007 amendment.59
1, Adequacy of Warning Devices
Plaintiffs first claim that Union Pacific failed to comply with a federal standard of care established by a regulation. Specifically, the Federal Highway Administration (“FHA”) has enacted regulations establishing what constitutes an adequate warning device for projects installed with federal funds. 23 C.F.R. § 646.214(b)(3) and (4) set forth guidelines for selecting the appropriate warning devices for installation at grade crossings improved with federal funding:
(3)(i) Adequate warning devices, under § 646.214(b)(2) or on any project where Federal-aid funds participate in the installation of the devices are to include automatic gates with flashing light signals when one or more of the following conditions exist:
(A) Multiple main line railroad tracks.
(B) Multiple tracks at or in the vicinity of the crossing which may be occupied by a train or locomotive so as to obscure the movement of another train approaching the crossing. .
(C) High Speed train operation combined with limited sight distance at either single or multiple track crossings.
*1242(D) A combination of high speeds and moderately high volumes of highway and railroad traffic.
(E) Either a high volume of vehicular traffic, high number of train movements, substantial numbers of schoolbuses or trucks carrying hazardous materials, unusually restricted sight distance, continuing accident occurrences, or any combination of these conditions.
(F) A diagnostic team recommends them.
(ii) In individual cases where a diagnostic team justifies that gates are not appropriate, FHWA may find that the above requirements are not applicable. (4) For crossings where the requirements of § 646.214(b)(3) are not applicable, the type of warning device to be installed, whether the determination is made by a State regulatory agency, State highway agency, and/or the railroad, is subject to the approval of FHWA.60
The Supreme Court in Shanklin held that by virtue of the FRSA, these regulations preempt state law tort claims challenging the adequacy of warning devices that are installed in part with federal funds.61 Plaintiffs contend that Union Pacific has failed to establish that the warning devices were installed with federal funds. Plaintiffs base this argument on allegations that Union Pacific’s exhibits and records provide no specific individualized information on the Crossing in this case. Plaintiffs argue that Catheart and Fulsom have no personal knowledge and cannot tell from their records whether the crossbucks and advance warning signs were installed at the Crossing as part of the Project. Plaintiffs assert that the KDOT Plans that allow crossbucks that are in compliance with the Plans to remain raises a fact question whether the specific crossbucks on the Crossing were replaced as part of the Program, or left alone because they complied with the replacement signage. The Court disagrees.
Union Pacific has presented evidence showing that federal funds were expended on the upgrading or installation of reflec-torized crossbucks and advance warning signs in various Kansas counties, including Brown County, and that funding was for 100% of the crossings that were upgraded. The affidavit of Catheart and the KDOT records reveal that Crossing No. 814762E is located in Hiawatha, Kansas, in Brown County. The KDOT Plans show the specific Brown County railroad crossings and the equipment and upgrades included for each crossing. All of the crossings listed in Brown County were to be upgraded with reflectorized crossbucks and 36" diameter advance warning signs; Crossing 814-762E was to receive two of each.62 The affidavit of Fulsom reveals that his construction company was awarded the bid to perform the work as outlined in the KDOT plans, that he personally oversaw the work that Paul J. Fulsom, Inc. did on the Project, and that his company placed the reflectorized crossbucks and advance warning signs on the Crossing on or before June 19, 1997. Fulsom attests that he was personally involved with the work on the Project, was present at the locations where this work was performed, and that the photographs from the Crossing on the date of the accident show crossbucks that are the same type as those his company installed as part of the Project. The photographs of the crossbucks at the Crossing show reflectorized tape attached to the support posts of the crossbucks. Plain*1243tiffs, however, do not present any evidence to create an issue of genuine material fact with regard to the participation of federal funds in the installation of the warning devices at the Crossing at issue in this case. The Court concludes that federal funds did participate.63
Plaintiffs further contend that their claims are not preempted because Union Pacific violated the provisions in 23 C.F.R. § 646.214(b)(3) that require automatic gates and flashing lights because the crossing condition included 1) unusually restricted sight distance; 2) continuing accident occurrences; and 3) a diagnostic team recommendation. Again, the Court disagrees. The Tenth, Eighth and Third Circuits have rejected a similar argument that subsection (b)(3) creates a federal standard of care that requires Union Pacific to install automatic gates and flashing lights.64 Subsection (b)(3) does not impose on railroads an ongoing duty — instead, it “displace[s] state and private decisionmak-ing authority.”65 “More importantly, subsection (b)(3) ‘placets] the responsibility for implementing adequate warning devices on the State, thereby preempting any cause of action alleging a railroad failed to properly install an adequate warning device.’ ”66 Railroads cannot, “as a matter of law, fail to comply” with subsection (b)(3).67
In this case, KDOT installed crossbucks and advance warning signs at the subject crossing with the use of federal funds and the help of NEKM, the crossing’s previous owner. While Union Pacific, as the current owner, has a duty to maintain the crossing devices, the State of Kansas is ultimately responsible for ensuring that the devices comply with subsection (b)(3).68 As a result, subsection (b)(3) does not impose on Union Pacific a federal standard of care.69 Absent a federal standard, Plaintiffs can avoid preemption only if there are no federal regulations that cover the subject matter of their inadequate-device claim.70 The Supreme Court, however, has concluded that subsections (b)(3) and (4) cover the subject matter of such claims.71 Accordingly, Plaintiffs’ inadequate warning devices claim is preempted, and the Court grants Union Pacific summary judgment on this claim.
2. Unusually Dangerous or Ultrahaz-ardous Crossing
Union Pacific argues that subsection (b)(3) and (4) also preempt Plain*1244tiffs’ claim that the Crossing was unusually dangerous or ultrahazardous because of sight-restricting trees and vegetation. To the extent that Plaintiffs claim that the presence of vegetation or trees rendered the Crossing sight-restricted and ultrahaz-ardous, thus requiring warning devices beyond the crossbucks and advance warning signs, Union Pacific is correct — such a claim is an attack on the adequacy of the warning devices present at the Crossing, as discussed above. However, Plaintiffs also claim that the Crossing was rendered ultrahazardous due to Union Pacific’s failure to clear sight-restricting vegetation from its right-of-way and adjacent property: “Kansas law is clear [Union Pacific] had every obligation to reduce or eliminate brush or sight obstructions to ensure a safe crossing.”72 To the extent this obstructed view claim is unrelated to the warning devices, it is not preempted by subsections (b)(3) and (4).73 Thus, the Court will address Union Pacific’s argument that this negligence claim fails as a matter of law.
Kansas law imposes upon a railroad the duty to maintain safe grade crossings. In 1939, the Kansas Supreme Court noted: “It is the general rule that when a train is rightfully on a crossing and [a] motor vehicle is driven into it, with resulting damages, the sole cause of such damages is the fact that the driver of the motor vehicle drove it-into the train.”74 The railroad has a right to make reasonable use of a crossing, and, ordinarily, the presence of a train on a railroad crossing is of itself an adequate warning to the driver of a vehicle on a highway, and special safeguards need not be employed in the absence of unusual surroundings, conditions, and circumstances.75 This rule has been modified and Kansas now recognizes that “unusually dangerous conditions” can exist where “mere presence of the train on the crossing may not adequately warn users of the highway of the danger in time to avoid a collision.”76 The critical factor is whether “the motorists’ perceptibility of the train .occupying the crossing is substantially impaired through no fault of their own.”77 “Where a crossing is unusually dangerous, such reasonable care must be exercised by the railroad as common prudence dictates. Under these circumstances, where a train.occupies a crossing, the railroad is under a duty to use reasonable means to warn and avoid injury to the traveling public.”78 “The character of the means will depend on the particular conditions and circumstances surrounding the crossing.”79 Where obstructions to view *1245exist the precautions necessary may take the form either of lower speed or commensurate warnings such as a flagman.80 Whether a railroad crossing is more than ordinarily dangerous is generally a question of fact, although the sufficiency of the evidence to establish that fact remains a question of law.81
Plaintiffs contend that had the trees and Vegetation been cleared or the line of sight adequate, the accident would not have occurred. Plaintiffs argue that “[wjheth'er vegetation existed in the immediate right of way or not, [Union Pacific] holds a duty to keep the crossing safe and eliminate unusually dangerous conditions.” Plaintiffs offer as support the expert report of James R. Loumiet, in which he states that the Crossing had “unusually restricted sight distance in all four crossing quadrants due to trees and vegetation in the quadrants.”82
Citing the Railroad-Highway Grade Crossing Handbook, published by the FHWA, and A Policy on Geometric Design of Highways and Streets, published by the American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials, Mr. Loumiet states that in ordér to provide drivers with adequate track sight distance at a crossing, clear unobstructed sight triangles must be provided in all four quadrants.83 His analysis using the formula for a 55-mph roadway speed limit indicates that the crossing in this case needed to provide motorists at least 470 feet of track sight distance when viewed from a location 570 feet from the tracks on the roadway.84 In this case, actual site distance to the south from 570 feet west of the tracks on the ,roadway, i.e., the approaches for the subject pickup truck and train, was only about 20-25 feet down the tracks.85 Using the formula for a 20-mph roadway, the crossing needed to provide motorists at least 325 feet of track sight distance when viewed from a location 130 feet from the tracks on the roadway, and in this case the actual track sight distance was about 80 feet.86 Mr. Loumiet opined that the trees and vegetation in the quadrants were a factor that rendered the Crossing “very sight restricted,” and thus ultrahazardous. Other factors in his conclusion were the tracks were curved, the crossing was used by large trucks and agricultural equipment, and traffic control was inadequate. Loumiet further concludes that one or more of the following remedial measures should have been implemented prior to the collision: installation of active warning devices; use of a flagman; and removal of sight restricting trees and vegetation from the crossing.87 It is Mr. Loumiet’s opinion that if one of these remedial measures had been implemented, the collision probably would not have occurred.88
*1246Union Pacific contends that Kansas has long recognized that a railway company is not ordinarily chargeable with negligence where the obstructions of the view are outside its right-of-way and beyond its control.89 Thus, it argues, because Plaintiffs have not presented any evidence that Union Pacific failed to control vegetation on its right-of-way or that any vegetation on its right-of-way obscured Mr. Turner’s view of the train, it had no obligation to remove the alleged vision obstructions. However, the cases cited by Union Pacific predate cases that modify Kansas law regarding the railroad’s duty with respect to an unusually dangerous crossing. Plaintiffs do not limit their claim to one of negligence for failure to maintain the right-of-way, but instead maintain that the crossing was unusually dangerous, which would not appear to limit a claim of a crossing obstruction to one contained within the right-of-way.90
Moreover, the record does not support Union Pacific’s claim that the undisputed evidence demonstrates that its right-of-way for “over several hundred feet from the south edge of the crossing was clear of any vegetation that could have materially obstructed a motorist’s view of approaching trains.”91 Union Pacific submits the declaration of Mr. Herring to describe the photographs taken at the scene of the accident.92 Herring attests to the authenticity of the photographs and that they accurately depict the condition of the Crossing on the date of the accident. Significantly, Herring offers no explanation of the significance of the photographs, in particular the extent of Union Pacific’s right-of-way, or whether they photographs depict the adjacent property owned by Mr. Spare. Indeed, other than the photographs, Union Pacific does not submit any evidence regarding the trees and vegetation, the condition and extent of its right of way and adjacent property, or the line of sight for the Crossing. The Court declines to make any conclusions of law based on the record before it. Thus, material questions of fact remain as to whether the Crossing was unusually dangerous, and whether that created a duty on the part of Union Pacific to take extra precautions. Summary judgment is denied on this claim.
B. “Short” Horn
Although they dropped any claim that Union Pacific failed to sound an emergency horn, Plaintiffs allege that Union Pacific’s horn was sounded 1.3 seconds short in violation of 49 C.F.R. 222.21. Subsection (b)(2) of that regulation provides' that “the locomotive horn shall begin to be sounded at least 15 seconds, but no more than 20 seconds, before the locomotive enters the crossing.” Union Pacific does not argue that this claim is preempted,93 instead focusing on Plaintiffs’ lack of evidence establishing that the purportedly short horn was the proximate cause of the *1247accident.94
In support of this claim, Plaintiffs again cite Mr. Loumiet’s expert report. Mr. Loumiet states that the locomotive event recorder data yielded information that the locomotive horn “was sounded approximately 13.7 seconds before impact” with Mr. Turner’s truck.95 Mr. Loumiet does not offer any opinion or further discussion regarding the short horn. Mr. Loumiet does opine that the crossing was extrahaz-ardous at the time of the collision, which was a contributing factor in the collision.96
Plaintiffs respond that causation is a question of fact for the jury. While this is ordinarily the case, “the plaintiff must normally prove the [purportedly] negligent act was a cause in fact of the plaintiffs injury.”97 To obtain summary judgment, “the movant need simply point out to the court a lack of evidence for the other party on an essential element of that party’s claim.”98 Because Plaintiffs have failed to come forward with any evidence that the short horn was the cause in fact or proximate cause of the accident, summary judgment is warranted.99
In so ruling, the Court notes that Plaintiffs also assert that Mr. Loumiet will give his deposition after the response had been filed, and provide evidence to support the short horn claim and causation.100 Fed. R.Civ.P. 56(d) states that “[i]f a nonmovant shows by affidavit or declaration that, for specified reasons, it cannot present facts essential to justify its opposition, the court may: (1) defer considering the motion or deny it; (2) allow time to obtain affidavits or declarations or to take discovery. ...”101 The .nonmovant must explain: (1) why facts precluding summary judgment are unavailable; (2) what probable facts he can find through further discovery; (3) what steps he has taken to obtain such facts; and (4) how additional time will allow him to controvert facts.102 “A party may not invoke- Rule 56[d] by simply stating that discovery is incomplete but must state with specificity how the additional material will rebut the summary judgment motion.”103 Plaintiffs have made no such showing or request, and granting Union Pacific’s motion on this claim is proper.
C. Mr. Turner’s Negligence
Kansas has adopted comparative negligence, embodied in K.S.A. 60-*1248258a, in which the loss is borne by each tortfeasor in proportion to his or her share of the total fault.104 The jury or the court will determine the percentage of negligence attributable to each of the parties and the total amount of damages sustained by each of the claimants.105 Where the fault of a negligent plaintiff is greater than 50%, no judgment can be entered against the defendant.106 Union Pacific contends that Mr. Turner’s negligence was the sole proximate cause of the accident, and no reasonable jury could conclude that he was less than 50% at fault for causing his own death and the death of Ms. Hogle.
Union Pacific argues that Mr. Turner violated several aspects of Kansas law when he 1) drove his pickup truck in front of the oncoming train; 2) ignored a railroad crossbuck sign that acted as a yield sign requiring him to stop for an oncoming train and proceeding only when safe to do so; and 3) violated statutory and common law governing the duties of motorists at crossings, including K.S.A. § 8-1551. That statute provides in relevant part:
(a) Whenever any person driving a vehicle approaches a railroad grade crossing under any of the circumstances state in this section, the driver of such vehicle shall stop within fifty (50) feet but not less than fifteen (15) feet from the nearest rail of such railroad, and shall not proceed until he or she can do so safely. The foregoing requirements shall apply when: ...
(3) A railroad train approaching within approximately one thousand five hundred (1,500) feet of the highway crossing emits a signal audible from such distance and such railroad train, by reason of its speed or nearness to such crossing, is an immediate hazard; or
(4) An approaching railroad train is plainly visible and is in hazardous proximity to such-crossing.107
Union Pacific claims that Mr. Turner ignored all of these responsibilities when he drove his truck into the path of a train that was clearly visible, was sounding its whistle or horn, and was in obvious proximity to the crossing. Union Pacific contends that photographs taken at the scene show a clear and unobstructed view from fifty feet west of the crossing that would have allowed Turner to see the approaching locomotive had he looked.108 Under these circumstances, Union Pacific argues, Turner had the duty to stop and yield to the train. Because his failure to do so was the sole proximate cause of the accident, no reasonable jury could conclude that he was less than 50% at fault for causing his own death and the death of Ms. Hogle.
Plaintiffs respond that the issue of Mr. Turner’s comparative fault is a question of fact for the jury. The Court agrees. “As a general rule, the presence *1249or absence of negligence in any degree is not subject to determination by the court on summary judgment, for such a determination should be left to the trier of fact.”109 As discussed above, a material disputed fact remains as to whether the Crossing was unusually dangerous. Further, § 8-1551 assumes that the driver of the vehicle can either hear or see the approaching train, and thus must stop to yield. Mr. Loumiet’s report opines that Mr. Turner did not see the train in time to avoid the collision, and notes skid marks appear in the gravel near the tracks.110 Accordingly, a material issue of fact remains on the issue of Turner’s comparative fault, and summary judgment is denied on this issue.111
D. Statute of Repose
Union Pacific next argues that any claim that the crossing was unreasonably dangerous is time-barred by the Kansas Statute of Repose, K.S.A. 60-513. This statute states in part:
(a) The following actions shall be brought within two years: ...
(4) An action for injury to the rights of another, not arising on contract, and not herein enumerated....
(a) ... the causes of action listed in subsection (a) shall not be deemed to have accrued until the act giving rise to the cause of action first causes substantial injury, or, if the fact of injury is not reasonably ascertainable until some time after the initial act, then the period of limitation shall not commence until the fact of injury becomes reasonably ascertainable to the injured party, but in no event shall an action be commenced more than 10 years beyond the time of the act giving rise to the cause of action.112
Union Pacific contends that the alleged “act giving rise to the cause of action” was
the geometric configuration of the Crossing, the angle of the intersection of 260th Road and the tracks at the Crossing, and/or the existence of trees or vegetation near the Crossing but not on Union Pacific’s right-of-way, which existed more than ten years before the accident. In addition, the crossbuck signs and advance warning signs were selected and placed at the Crossing in 1997.
To determine if the statute of repose is applicable, it must be decided when the act giving rise to the cause of action occurred. Plaintiffs urge that this act is the vegetation and trees existing at the time of the accident that, coupled with the angle of the track, created a sight restriction that rendered the crossing unusually dangerous. Plaintiffs allege that Union Pacific failed to properly warn and maintain the crossing, *1250and a material issue of fact exists regarding whether the line of vegetation fluctuated over the ten-year period 'of repose. Union Pacific argues that Plaintiffs failed to come forward with evidence to establish any changes to the crossing during the ten years preceding the accident. But Union Pacific bears the burden on its affirmative defense, and on summary judgment, must show that the undisputed facts establish every element of the defense entitling it to judgment as a matter of law.113 The Court agrees with Plaintiffs that for Union Pacific to succeed on its affirmative defense, the Court would have to accept that there was no change to these trees and vegetation in the ten years before the accident.114 The deposition testimony of Ms. Turner and Ms. Stonebarger and the series of photographs of the Crossing fall short of meeting this burden. Union Pacific’s citation to Klose v. Wood Valley Racquet Club, Inc.,115 is distinguishable because that case involved a structural hazard, not one caused by tree and vegetation sight restrictions. Accordingly, although the Court acknowledges that the application of. the statute of repose is a question of law, it cannot decide that question upon the summary judgment record before it. Summary judgment is denied on this defense.
E. Punitive Damages
Union Pacific first argued in its motion for summary judgment that Plaintiffs cannot make a viable punitive damages claim under the facts of this case. Specifically, Union Pacific contends that it did not know or have a reason to know that there was a high degree of probability that its conduct would result in injury, and that it acted “with wilful or wanton conduct, fraud, or malice” toward Plaintiffs or the general public. Plaintiffs respond that a genuine issue of fact remains regarding how long Union Pacific knew the ultrahaz-ardous crossing should be upgraded to lights and gates before the accident in this case.
In its reply, Union Pacific notes that Plaintiffs responded to its motion for partial summary judgment on Plaintiffs’ claims for the survival of Veronica Hogle and Therman Turner, Sr., by dropping and acquiescing to such claims, which are no longer being asserted.116 Thus, Union Pacific argues, the only claims remaining in the case are for wrongful death, and Plaintiffs’ claims for punitive damages fail as a matter of Kansas law.
The Court agrees. Under Kansas law, punitive damages are not recoverable in wrongful death cases.117 A plaintiff is *1251only entitled to an award of punitive damages for a survival action.118 The Pretrial Order separately sets forth damages for survival and wrongful death: Plaintiffs are claiming between $1 million and $7 million in survival damages for pain, mental anguish, and terror suffered by Veronica Ho-gle; and wrongful death damages suffered by Melissa Stonebarger, Kiatona Turner, and Therman Turner, Jr., capped at $250,000.119 Because Plaintiffs are no longer pursuing any survival claims, and their only remaining claims are for wrongful death and pecuniary Wentling damages, Union Pacific is entitled to judgment as a matter of law on Plaintiffs’ punitive damages claim.
IT IS THEREFORE ORDERED BY THE COURT that Defendant Union Pacific’s Motions for Summary Judgment are granted in part and denied in part as follows:
1) summary judgment is granted with respect to Plaintiffs’ claims of inadequate warning devices, excessive speed, proper lookout, failure to slacken speed, failure to sound emergency horn, train horn audibility, and punitive damages; and denied with respect to .Plaintiffs’ claims that the railroad crossing was unusually dangerous under Kansas law and that Therman Turner was the sole cause of the accident (Doc. 83);
2) summary judgment is denied with respect to Union Pacific’s affirmative defense of statute of repose Doc. 85; and 3)summary judgment is granted on Plaintiffs’ survival claims (Doc. 87).
IT IS SO ORDERED.

The Pretrial Order was entered nearly three months after the original deadline, at the request of the parties. Although Union Pacific filed its motions for summary judgment by the dispositive motions and discovery deadlines, the parties deferred the depositions of eight witnesses, including the parties' experts, until December 31, 2014, *1237while the parties pursued settlement. To date, it appears the only expert that has been deposed is Mr. Loumiet, who was deposed on November 21, 2014, after Plaintiffs filed their response to the motion for summary judgment; the depositions of Union Pacific's experts have been postponed pending resolution of Union Pacific's request for review of a discovery matter that Plaintiffs contend is key to the depositions. The parties have also agreed that motions to exclude or limit testimony of experts will be filed by January 15, 2015. Trial is currently scheduled to begin April 27, 2015. That being said, Union Pacific does not rely on any expert testimony or evidence in support of its motions, nor do Plaintiffs invoke Fed.R.Civ.P. 56(d), and the Court proceeds to analyze Union Pacific's motions on the record before it, such that it is.
