The railway will interfere with The elk wintering migration range. The wells draw would be a poor route due to the power line that runs in the canyon. Argyle has on both sides faults where are springs come from that feed are cabin would be affected. Pollution will be a big issue due to inversion the forest and vegetation will be destroyed due to the exhaust fan at the tunnel exit noise pollution will be extreme with seven trains a day rattling up and down. If a train accident of any kind happens it will be a major catastrophe with oil spill getting in to are water supply for animals and human consumption. Fires started by trains with our landscape it would be extremely hard to fight and burning up thousands of acres of forests and fires in the canyon are very hard to fight an other reason Wills Draw should be taken off the board as an option.
