Answer 1

I think I remember this...it isn't that old but set in the Depression era. It's called The Dollmaker, which is also the name of the book that it's based on. Her mother got her into a car but the girl bled to death before they could get her to a hospital. I think the mother was played by Jane Fonda, and it was a made for TV movie. The family had to leave the country to find work in a city, and the mother was good at carving wooden dolls and statues.

Answer 2

Fried Green Tomatoes (1991)
In the movie there is a little boy who losses part of his leg on a train track (trying to get a ball off the tracks?). No imaginary friend.

Celamy (2005)
In this movie the little girl creates an imaginary friend to help her deal with her mothers death. Don't think she loses a leg/s.

Do you remember any of the actors/actresses?
Any more details? How old (black & white or color)?

Additional note:
In the movie Fried Green Tomatoes - the story moves back and forth between the present day (1991) and that past (1930's).
The part where the boy loses his leg takes place during the 30's.
