Comment EI-21849

Received or sent (printed as 4/7/2016)

I am concerned about the proposed railway for many reasons. First I am very concerned because the train route cuts right through our township. My children's bus route will be affected and I am highly concerned for the children's safety. Also I am worried because the proposed train will be running very close to my house and I am concerned about possible derailment which could poison the soil. We have well water and I plant a big garden every year. We also have goats and chickens . I am concerned that first responders will not be able to respond to emergencies. And finally I hate that they will be hauling hazardous material through our precious farm land!
