Re: Surrey calls for slower trains, Feb. 26.
I fail to understand why Surrey council wants slower trains.
Much has been written about the blocking of the two access routes to Crescent Beach. A five-minute crossing at 30 mph will become 15 minutes at 10 mph, thus tripling the time that first responders may have to wait to service Crescent Beach.
This seems to be possibly more dangerous than the train itself.
