I have been a resident of Roselle IL for 28 years. I live very close to the railroad tracks that are being impacted. I feel that merger would be disastrous to all the small communities along the tracks. Most of these communities are small and have no underpass as Roselle does. I feel that the environmental impact will be terrible along with all the noise that all the extra train traffic will cause. Not to mention the dangers of how many people are crossing the tracks on foot due to the fact it is a major transportation line for the regions metro trains. Please reconsider this acquisition for the sake of our small communities. There are other rail lines that are more dedicated to rail freight. (Received via project website)
