Would real estate agents be more successful if they stated up-front that the home includes an "elephant in the living room"? In Dave's case: The owners must love trains, or be "stone deaf".

A few blocks from our residence, the concrete walls along the Interstate should be higher and laminated. Some homes even have second floor windows on the freeway side. Deduct one or two hundred grand? Or love trucks?
