Train rides fun for many

In response to the negative remarks in Speak Out about the train and railroad crossing in Jackson, I have these comments to make.

This person should ride the train and see the happy and excited faces of young people riding a train for the first time and the pleasant memories older folks experience remembering train rides from the past. It is sad that some people cannot see the pleasure young and old alike get from riding the train, but can only see dollars and cents.
