Please say NO to the purchase of the EJ&E railroad line. The impact it will have on our communities is detrimental. The line runs 100 feet from homes, parks, sports fields and our schools!!! It intereferes with traffic flow in an already congested area as well as stops our emergency vehicles in route to urgent care situations. The enviormental pollution from that many trains running through our yards" and the increased vehicle emissions as cars sit idling for the 10 minutes it can take the train to pass. The reason we moved to the suburbs is to raise our children in a lower pollution enviorment. It is ridiculous that our government would allow this purchase when we have SO MUCH TO LOSE! It is the american families that live in these communites that will suffer greatly from this purchase. Not to mention CN has a HORRIBLE safety record and that frieght could spill out into our schools! Please say no!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
