Brookings, SD vote on DME proposal
Posted by solzrules on Wednesday, November 1, 2006 4:06 PM

Apparently Brookings, MN will vote on the agreement they have with DME regarding the upgrade to their rail line. 

check out the short article in this link:

It is interesting to note the mayor was the author - not the railroad (I suppose the mayor could be a stooge of the railroad, but I find that highly unlikely).  I am curious what Brookings thinks the benefits will be to this if they reject it.

 

You think this is bad? Just wait until inflation kicks in.....

CORRECTION:

Brookings is in South Dakota, not Minnesota.
