The Not Subtle Effect of Infrasound

 I am tired, because Military Ocean Terminal Sunny Point is taking its toll.  Most people don't know about America's largest deep water port.  It is located at the mouth of the Cape Fear River just below Wilmington, North Carolina.  "MOTSU" is the reason why there is no cruise terminal in North Carolina.  If you want to embark a cruise, you must travel to Charleston or further south on the Eastern Seaboard.  If you travel north you have Norfolk, where there is a terminal.  It is located in the midst of our nation's naval military industrial complex.  Why does North Carolina not want a cruise ship terminal in Wilmington?  The Department of Defense (now War Department) does not want it.  They do not relish passenger ships with 5000 cones cruising past America's largest military deep water port.  There are three piers which accommodate three cargo vessels and a vast array of railroad feeder tracks that supply this loading dock.  It has evolved into container shipping.  This is how military supplies are transported to Europe arriving at a military base in Germany.  Munitions and other kinds of equipment are loaded onto these large ships.  The ships sail across the Atlantic providing the proper gear for the United States military.  Because of America's new war with Iran, rail traffic from various military bases to Sunny Point has increased.  This is active revenue for rail companies.  It is easy to recognize.  Fayetteville has enough rail traffic of its own, and often it is overwhelming and destructive to the local civilian community.  There are three major railroads that intersect in downtown Fayetteville.  CSX, the Aberdeen and Rockfish, and RJ Corman.  How can rail traffic be harmful to those not traveling on Amtrack?  "I Could Write a Book."   It would seem those who supported Donald Trump also think it is not possible.  That warm fuzzy sentimental feeling about Thomas the Tank, Lionel, and the Polar Express will not allow them to fathom the dangers of EMF and low frequency alternating current.  Why would electromagnetic waves (radio waves) be emanating from diesel-electric locomotives?  It is an  operative question.  I have a rail study sitting on my desk that explains why.  Locotrol by Wabtec is one reason.  Precision Scheduled Railroading is another.  As railroads downsize their locomotive fleets and eliminate workers, they have begun to use satellite enhanced remote control.  Burlington Northern and Santa Fe  is experimenting with three mile long trains.  These monstrosities require consists in three different places in a train.  They are running three C40-9W's as the front consist, in the middle, and at the end.  That is nine locomotives for one train.  Locotrol is what that allows them to do this.  This system provides wireless control of 4400 horse power freight locomotives, so there are no operators in these additional consists.  In a nutshell every diesel/electric locomotive produces low frequency sound waves or infrasound because of the firing rate of the engine.  Common speeds of these locomotives is 650 rpm's at idle and 1050 for full power.  Each formula of cycles per second produces a corresponding low frequency sound wave which cannot be heard.  Every running locomotive produces its on wave that never stops propagating, even at idle.  In simple mathematical terms as in physics, if you group three locomotives together, their engine revolutions are not synced.  Each one is producing its own soundwave at a slightly different phase than the others.  If you place three more of these a mile away in the middle of a train, and three more at the end of the train, then you have an ambulatory circus of infrasonic pollution.  Google infrasound, and the results for this search will explain how destructive it is to the human body.  The Nazi's studied and used infrasound for various reasons in World War ll.  Never have I liked these waves, because after I discovered them in 1990, their effects never have ceased to make my life more difficult.  This is because of music.  Since Donald Trump has been President, and since Hunter Harrison sealed the deal with Precision Scheduled Railroading in America, the harmful effects of the rail industry have worsened.  When Sunny Point is loading equipment, infrasonic pollution is at its absolute worst on the East Coast.  In Fayetteville, the location of Fort Bragg, the sound waves are so strong they literally can push you over or hinder your gait.  That is now.  Logically I am not able to play music, because these immense, powerful, sound waves negate my efforts.  They have a negative effect of music.  As the music modulates these invisible and inaudible demons, it makes the music unpleasant.  Although I was an avid model railroader and appreciate and understand the importance of the "Iron Horse" in America's development, I despise the rail industry.  Their only goal today is producing revenue for shareholders.  The real world ramifications of a nine locomotive freight train ambulating the American landscape are dire and destructive for the surrounding population.  I have experienced the worsening of this sonic impact over the last decade.  In extreme cases people can die.  Donald Trump said he was getting ready to wipe out an entire civilization.  His administration sets no example for compassionate behavior toward their electing constituents.  It is the opposite.  They do not care if the common American taxpayer is being hammered by infrasound.  The effects of this plague are the same as they always have been, and it is well documented.  If you have questions about your own personal health, consider the effects of infrasonic pollution from America's rail industry, including the Strategic Rail Corridor Network.  (STRACNET)  We may be killing Iranians with bombs, but we are harming Americans in a much more subtle way.
