Just a few more details... <br />The STB Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) blew the Rochester complaints out of the water. Mayo Clinic was the primary complainer, claiming that vibration from the increased rail traffic would cause their MRI machines to blur test results, but the STB's researchers discovered that the Mayo buildings produce more vibration than would reach them from the railroad, and that since the MRI machines were already protected against the building's vibrations, trains would not affect them. This info is in the EIS on the STB's website. <br /> <br />Second - a former C&NW co-worker who now works for the DM&E says that the results of their bid on the I&M should be announced around the first of the year. If DM&E gets the I&M, or at least part of it, they'll have access to the big gateways and not have to give their coal traffic to barges or the CP at Winona. <br />
