I really dont consider it out of line for people to be worried about this. Pan Am seems to have a pretty bad environmental record already, and they seem to half ass everything in the first place, so why shouldnt people be worried about there drinking water being threatened by such a careless company? It wouldnt be suprising for the lot to be built and then run at half the volume it was intended. Sure, there might be industrial infrastructure in the area but that can't act as an excuse to keep building and building, eventually you just have to stop. I think the bottom line I'm trying to say is that, yeah you might be railfan and you want to see all your favorite spots filled to the brim with traffic so you can take your pictures, but in reality that has nothing to do with you, and whole lot more things are much more important than some new intermodal facility. You might label the people protesting as tree huggers or hippies, only because they arent psuedo-civil engineers on the weekends, and they just don't care about railroads, they care about drinking water
