I wish to register my opposition to any new railway being built named the Great Lakes Railway or any other as it is unneeded and appears to me to be an attempt to land grab. The Ill Farm bureau as well as all county Boards and farm bureaus and several grass roots groups have come into opposition to this so called railway. It doesnot need to be built and even it's market railways have said thy will not use it. In addition another public private partnership called CREATE is reducing congestion in rail transport further reducing the need for the GLB from being built. In short a bad idea with no market and many many people living and working along it's route oppose it. Tim Ryan
