Glb railroad proposes coming thru our and many many other peoples land. Com Ed has a easement thru the farm, pipe line has a easement along the farm, Kent Creek flood control took with eminent domain thru our farm,now a train diagonally thru our farm land. Roads will be closed, emergency services delayed, farm owners fields cut in half, danger to wildlife, children will have a longer bus commute to school, and if a derailment, the pollution to land and water, etc. We are out in the country to enjoy the peaceful life, raise crops and animals, let our children and grandchildren live in a quiet peaceful setting. So many reasons not to allow this. There's no reason to have this, just greed.
