Well I fail to see what all the crying over spiltr milk is about. This is what we are talking about correct? http://www.visi.com/~mfrahm/dme/plant/dmeprb0.jpg With the $2.5 billion going to construct the orange segment and expand a few sidings along DM&E's exiting line? For example, If I owned a house in Rochester, and wanted to convert it into a hotel, (expanding it's volume and capacity) I'd have zoning requirements I'd have to comply with, proving there was adequate parking, fire protection, etc, and that the day to day operations were not going to cause a nusianceto the existing neighbors. There would be a hearing in which surrounding neighbors would be entitled to pitch any objections, And the same thing seems to be happening here, just on a larger scale. The real "hard knocks" that I see here is that the City of Rochester has a party (the Mayo Clinic) on it's side whom cannot be taken lightly and just brushed aside. That is the real fly in the ointment here isn't it? That the railroad can't just do as it darn well pleases and get away with it? The City found itself a formidable bodyguard. That's the breaks, I guess.
