Citing ZERO Environmental Hazards NYS Agenda 2030 Fascists THROW THEIR WEIGHT AROUND
“It is unsightly,’’ Mr. Cuomo told reporters recently in Glens Falls. “It is out of character with the Adirondacks. Nobody goes to the Adirondacks to look at old trains. They go there to look at the natural beauty.’’
YES Mr. Cuomo They Stop at Gas and Diesel Stations and DRIVE There up Route 87 Give It a Break Andrew Cuomo …. Have You lost Your mind ????
The Old D&H Rail Storage Yard at Whitehall was a Tourist Destination for DECADES. Like the Aircraft Grave Yards …. People Love Them ….. Mr. Cuomo You and Your SOCIALIST Eco Freaks are DEAD WRONG
BUT THE FACTS ARE ….. NO LEAKING / THE CARS DO NOT LEAK
Mr. Ellis downplayed the argument that the line of parked rail cars are unsightly, noting that they are over two miles from the nearest road. “The cars are really out of sight, out in the middle of nowhere, in a place that’s seldom seen,” he said.

CRIMINAL TRESPASSING Oh Absolutely
That report and photographs of Bauer standing next to passenger cars owned by Iowa Pacific and its tourism railroad operation the Saratoga and North Creek Railway apparently prompted a letter from the company that instructed Bauer and his organization to stay off the railroad’s property. The railroad said in its letter, copied to State Police, that the railroad would seek to have “criminal charges brought against you for unlawful trespass.”
IF THE State Highways and all those RVs and SUVs and other Transportation Systems that Allow Eco-Tourists to TRAVEL to the Park and Live in the Park …. Rail Cars make all that possible. IF New York State had ENVIRONMENTAL VIOLATIONS They Would Have Jurisdiction BUT DEC has found ZERO ENVIRONMENTAL HAZARDS or PROBLEMS … ZERO
Cuomo: Rail tankers don’t belong stored in Adirondacks | Local …
Oct 25, 2017 – “The certified inspector found the Saratoga & North Creek Railway to be in full compliance with federal requirements. The inspected rail cars were properly secured with hand brakes set, and there were no violations found. The department has inspection jurisdiction, pursuant to a state participation …
The Adirondacks a HOTBED of AGENDA 2030 … 2050 and Full Of SOCIALISTS
Lastly Heavy Trucks and Rail are the very LIFE of the Adirondacks , The Rail Roads are CRUCIAL to the State and the Whole Nation ….. The efforts by the Adirondack Mountain CLUB and all these Tree Hugging Zealots should cause ALL Food and Lumber, The ESSENTIAL COMMODITIES transported by Rail to be CUT OFF for the Environmental Socialists …. These People are INSANE. God Bless the Rail Roads

I am to Understand That TREE HUGGERS are Upset that the Cars are in the Adirondacks. The area has Huge numbers of Highways and other Surface Transportation that ALLOWS THESE TREE HUGGING ZEALOTS to drive by SUV and RV to come Play In The Park. The Gas and Oil Used by these ZEALOTS In my opinion should be DENIED TO THEM. Rail Roads Built America and I understand the STATE DEC have found ZERO Environmental Issues or Spills.
I love Nature as much as Anyone …. BUT I also support Rail Roads and the Rule of Law. I see ZERO Legal Grounds and LESS ENVIRONMENTAL Dangers being posed by these Cars. I would ask for a LEGAL STATEMENT as to Any Reason the cars should be REMOVED.
Thank You

I am greatly concerned that Rail Cars that pose ZERO Environmental Threat to anyone have become the TARGET of a Witch Hunt by New York Governor Cuomo and a GANG OF ENVIRONMENTAL Zealots who ALL USE OIL AND GAS and the Nation’s Highways and Air Transportation even Railways.
I have witnessed the AGENDA 21 Dismantling of the Adirondacks and Catskill Parks and frankly see NO LOGICAL REASON whatsoever that the Cars Stored on the Tracks violate any Environmental Safety Laws.
I would imagine “IF” Andrew Cuomo and His attack dogs had an environmental issue New York Courts would have Jurisdiction. Obviously there is none.
I ask that the Surface Transportation Board understand ECONOMIC GROWTH is important to New York and as such SPECIFICALLY Cite any Environmental Threat these Cars pose.
In closing, We Love the Rail Road here in Upstate and support the Men and Women of Your Industry 100% ….. NYS DEC and Andrew Cuomo NOT SO MUCH.
Thank You

The state Department of Transportation sent an inspector to the rail line last week, the day after the cars arrived, to check that they were intact and stored correctly, and a DOT spokeswoman said there were no problems found.
“The department inspected the rail cars on October 19, 2017,” spokeswoman Carol Breen said in an email. “The certified inspector found the Saratoga & North Creek Railway to be in full compliance with federal requirements. The inspected rail cars were properly secured with hand brakes set, and there were no violations found. The department has inspection jurisdiction, pursuant to a state participation agreement with the Federal Rail Administration, to ensure compliance with and enforce federal safety regulations on an active railroad.”
I write to QUESTION the Lawfulness of ANY REMOVAL of Rail Cars Parked in the Adirondacks . I find the Use of Idle Tracks OUT OF THE WAY and OUT OF SIGHT to be a Great Use for the Tracks.
