I have a few questions raised by the GTH, and some directly about the GTH I'll put in a second message.

Can anyone say for sure if rail lines and traffic will definitely be removed from the city?

I've heard different people both say two different things:
one: that this GTH will eliminate trains from the city as they will skirt along the outside instead
two: that rail relocation is multi-billion dollar project that would take decades


Regarding the downtown rail yards I've also heard two stories:
one: everything is being removed soon to make way for stadium
two: proper environmental removal of the grounds will cost too much and take too long, and is not in anyone's scope

So it's unclear to me, what will be net change to the average citizen who encounters train crossings in the city? Will the rail yards downtown be completely removed or will they stay?
