What about the steady stream of trucks coming in over the Verrazano. How many of those shipments would have gone by rail, if it didn't require the trip up to Selkirk to cross the Hudson...Also, (and I'm putting my NIMBY hat on here) the residents along the CSX River Line *hate* the increased traffic, when they moved in there were 17 trains a day, over the past 20 years it's jumped to well over 50. If this tunnel cuts down on that traffic, it can be seen as a benefit to upstate. |
