After reading many different articles on coal passing through the different states, towns, and living in Marysville on the east side of the tracks, nothing could be worse than waiting for the train to pass then waiting for a light to finally get on your way. I had to take my wife to the emergency room and was delayed by a train and sat for 15 minutes, thinking this is not good and could be the cause of delayed 911 emergencies. The few trains we have now are too much for this area with all the contested traffic we have. The only solution I would have if this was to happen is before coal is allowed to travel as many trips as planned we need overpasses to be able to continue on our way without delay.
