The railroad will prolong the case enough years to move a couple
million more coal trains and then after they win....

The number one reason anyone would hate a coal train right
now is being stuck at a RR crossing waiting for one to pass by.
Out of the city coal trains do 50mph and it's not a long wait.
But a coal train having to slow down to pass through a city
like a 20-25mph can have car-traffic backed-up quite a ways.
Then toss-in a few "lost my air" and you have a city cut in
half until the train gets moving again. Marysville and Mt Vernon-
Burlington and Bellingham will need some over/under passes
built.
