#5 As a long-time rail buff and model railroader with fond childhood memories of B&O sleeping cars, I am outraged. No railroad station deserves to be insulted this way.

#6 I'm not sure about having to be dead. How many public projects in West Virginia are named after the late Klansman (and U.S. Senator BTW) Robert Byrd?

#7 About 1900 boardings or de-boardings per day at the station; probably about 1000 people since most users take round trips and probably of the 1000, on any day, about 800 of them are frequent users.

It will be an image that is burned into their minds.

#12 Ride'n that train
High on ice cream
Casey Joe you better,
watch your feet.

Plugs on the head
Thumb in behind
And that commotion,
37 million pork-rinds

#13 Surely 37 MILLION in taxpayers money wasn't spent for the benefit of just 1,000ish local house-owners (who'll reap any benefit through higher house prices).
