RE: STB Finance Docket No. 35087 I ask you to please consider all the implications the purchase of the EJ&E Railway by CN Railway Company will cause to the envirnonment and safety of the Barrington, Illinois community. The present EJ&E line was not designed to carry the magnitude of lines that CN proposes. I am extremely concerned about the pollution and safety of our community's citizens. The tracks cut through our small town numerous times. The weave of train traffic would be so great as to cause a real problem of health & safety issues for our residents. Please do not allow such an atrocious disregard for the human element to happen. Please do not allow this purchase.
