Funny, Novato sure didn't seem to think NWP freight ops were a boon to their community... are not they the only town in Marin that actually sees freight? The rest of 'environmentally conscious' Marin sure leaped to the NWP's aid when Novato was after them... not.
The only thing most of Marin is conscious of is the status of their bank accounts, FB pages, and where they parked their Mercedes/BMW/Porsche/etc. In case you haven't noticed, being "green" is lifestyle choice rooted more in affluence than any real desire to save the planet. Poor or Middle Class + Green = suckers.
