The train can be heard in most of the Villages on the western edge of TV. For many people it is not a problem. Chatham happens to be the closest Village to the tracks. Jan's problem is more unique because he backs on the tracks and open space, and there is no buffer. :dontknow: My heart goes out to Jan and his wife.

We can hear the train from our home in TV but we are further from the tracks than in Chatham. We like the sound. Many in our neighbourhood feel the same way.
