Letter to the Editor for May 12, 2022

I am a native of Baker City who strongly opposes the city’s efforts to silence the warning horns of the Union Pacific trains.

Baker City embraces its history and the U.P. is part of that. A handful of newcomers are trying to silence these horns from warning the public that a train is approaching, and they have allies on the city council. Please join me in stopping this movement from muzzling a necessary safety policy and piece of Baker City’s rich heritage.
