WE MOVED TO SOUTH HOLLAND 4 YEARS AGO. WE FELL IN LOVE WITH THE COMMUNITY AND OUR HOME. HOWEVER, AFTER ABOUT A MONTH WE WERE READY TO MOVE. THE TRAINS WERE UNBEARABLE. THE TRAINS IDLE BEHIND OUR HOME ALL NIGHT, THE CONDUCTORS ON OCCASSIONS WOULD BLOW THEIR HORN NON-STOP WHILE IDLEING IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT FOR NO APPARENT REASON. WE ARE UNABLE TO REALLY ENJOY OUR BACKYARD OR OPEN OUR WINDOWS BECAUSE OF THE IDLING TRAINS, FUMES FROM THE TRAIN ETC. AS SOON AS ONE TRAIN GOES BY HERE COMES ANOTHER ON THE OPPOSITE TRACK. I LOVE SOUTH HOLLAND AND I HOPE THAT THE CANADIAN NATIONAL RAILROAD WILL MOVE THEIR TRAINS OFF THE RAIL LINES THAT RUNS INTO OUR COMMUNITY AND TO THE EJ&E RAILWAY THAT THE RUNS THROUGH THE OUTLINE SUBURBS. I BELIEVE THAT WILL BE FAIR AND WE CAN FULLY ENJOY OUR COMMUNITY.
