I have heard the stories of trauma from these engineers who will never forget the feeling, not being able to avoid hitting and killing someone on the tracks. Safe crossings are fundamental to coexistence of trains and communities. A safe crossing includes horns when trains approach. Always. Parkville is charming. But charm is not the strongest argument for the train horns. Safety is. You can’t have farmers markets and fairs and beer fests next to the train tracks without it. While i appreciate the new safeguards of the fencing between the parks and trails and the tracks, horns remain a key part of the safety system designed to protect humans. It only takes one tragedy. We have lived and we have thrived with the train. Do not let selfish financial interest detract from something that keeps our community and its visitors safe. I love the sound of the train horn. I live near the tracks. It doesn’t bother me. Now, that yippie dog my neighbor lets out on their deck to bark for hours annoys the heck out me. Can you do something about that? Leave the horn!

We love the sound of the train whistle. These business owners knew of the tracks location when they bought/rented the space. Whistles are for safety and I’m sorry, but I would rather deal with the inconvenience of the “noise” and save a life vs anybody getting hit. Trust me, I know somebody that barely survived getting hit by a train in their car in rural KS. WHISTLES SAVES LIFES!

I enjoy the sounds of “home” when on the water or out on the deck at my residence. The train whistles are just a part of the local community charm , just as airplane jet engine noise from KCI and revving of race car engines from the track in KCK (yes, we that too from MO).
If potential businesses don’t care for the train whistles, then maybe they aren’t the right business partner for Parkville, MO.
