Survey signals wariness of future DM&E traffic Rochester, Minn., residents oppose a likely increase in local freight train traffic, according to a public opinion survey conducted last month. The Rochester Coalition, which commissioned the survey, issued a press release and executive summary describing the findings. The telephone survey, conducted by Washington, D.C.-based KRC Research, found that seven in 10 residents oppose the likelihood of faster and more frequent trains through Rochester on the Dakota, Minnesota & Eastern Railroad line. The line is owned by Canadian Pacific. CP intends--and is required as a condition of the DM&E purchase--to invest $300 million in the next five years to upgrade the line, parts of which are incapable of safely handling heavy traffic.
