<p>[quote user="Murphy Siding"] The Rochester group (TRG for short) has said in the past, that they didn't want coal trains running through their fair city on those naughty, old, DM&E tracks.(!) Nevermind, that we all know(TRG included) that DM&E would have had to improve the tracks. Now, TRG can *demand* that CP fix up the tracks before running lots of coal trains through town. They can also *encourage* CP to work with them on grade crossing and safety issues. Once these things are accomplished, (which DM&E or CP was going to do anyway), TRG can claim *victory*, as they will have *gotten what they wanted all along*. Everyone lives semi-happily for a fair amount of time.[/quote]</p><p>With all the*energy* that has been put into this conflict already, can you imagine all the "I told you so's" that will be flying after there eventually is a grade crossing accident in Rochester? Double that if an ambulance happens to be involved. </p><p> </p>
