No trains will be traveling on the <br />Wayzata to Hutchinson line. Since there will be no trains and since there is no railroad, the <br />local road authorities are requested to install the appropriate exempt signage at the railroad <br />crossings as well as in advance of the railroad crossings. <br />The enclosed Exempt Signing Order lists those crossings that fall within Westonka School <br />District 277. Exempt signs in advance of crossings are black lettering on yellow <br />background and exempt signs at the crossings are black lettering on white background. <br />Have a safe day! If you have any questions feel free to call or write. <br />Sincerely, <br />Tom Gellerman <br />Railroad Administration <br />cc: <br />Bob Swanson <br />OFRW, Mn/DOT <br />Vem Genzlinger <br />Hennepin Co Engineer <br />Gregory Allen Gappa <br />Orono City Engineer <br />Jeffery Roos <br />Mo’jnd City Engineer <br />Barbara A.
