I will be brief since a picture speaks a thousand words. But this one may need some explanation. You see with all the crude oil and frack sand train traffic necessitating a second rail section through our area, one thing mentioned at the DNR informational meeting by a union representative in the positives was more jobs for locals. Really?
FACT: Rail beds and bridge rail overpasses were long overdue for repair besides the second rail construction.
The cabin lodging below is 11 miles south of La Crosse. Cabins have been frequented for the last 6 months by Burlington Rail employees, obviously not local.
Every cabin has a Burlington Northern logo'ed truck in front of it.
I know, I know at least the rail is finally being made safer and at least the area motels are full but what happened to giving locals jobs?
Oh, maybe our folks are building the new safer train cars.
Not. (uttered sarcastically)
