I support the Canadian National Railway (CN) to buy the underused Elgin, Joliet and Eastern railroad (EJ&E) Chicago is a wold class city with too many trains. These trains limit growth in certain areas do to pollution, noise and saftey concerns. REDUCE THE TRAIN VOLUME Chicago neighborhoods deserve the same consideration as suburban communities. Reducing freight train congestion is an economic and environmental benefit to the entire region. Many Chicago communities have borne the brunt of freight congestion for years. It’s time for our communities to see some rail congestion relief and for the burden to be balanced across the region.
