Dear City Council,
I support the effort to reduce the noise of trains passing by. I love the CalTrain but it makes an extreme and unnecessary amount of noise. I know noise pollution is not always taken seriously, but please do care about this issue as it has both mental and physical health implications. Here is a recent article from The Atlantic writing about some of the surprising physical health consequences.

We should make every attempt at reducing noise where we can, especially when the noise is completely unnecessary and easily diminished as it is with the CalTrain.
Thank you for your good governance!
Best,
Soren
