DON'T WANT TRASH OR THE TRASH TRAIN

WE, THE residents of Bradshaw Road in Montgomery County, do not want the Roanoke Valley's trash or trash train running through our property.

Why us? It's their landfill. We do not want to sell our property or lose our homes. Norfolk Southern says some homes will have to go. If we don't give permission, it will simply condemn and take what it needs for the rail spur.

It will be impossible to sell a house in our area; our property value will be ruined. Bradshaw Creek floods badly now. If the boundaries are disturbed, some of us will be in real danger.
