INTERSTATE COMMERCE COMMISSION
[Finance Docket No. 32442]

 

NEBKOTA Railway, Inc.--Acquisition and Operation Exemption--Line 
of Chicago and North Western Transportation Co.; Exemption

    NEBKOTA Railway, Inc. (NEBKOTA), a noncarrier, has filed a notice 
of exemption under 49 CFR 1150.31 to acquire and operate a 73.5-mile 
line of the Chicago and North Western Transportation Company (CNW) 
between Merriman, at or near milepost 331.0, and Chadron, at or near 
milepost 404.5, in Cherry, Sheridan, and Dawes Counties, NE.
    The transaction includes the acquisition of incidental trackage 
rights over a 27.8-mile CNW rail line in Dawes County between Chadron, 
at or near milepost 404.5, and Crawford, at or near milepost 432.3. 
With the trackage rights, NEBKOTA will be able to interchange with 
Burlington Northern Railroad Company. The transaction was to become 
effective on or after January 10, 1994. The parties certify that 
NEBKOTA's projected revenues do not exceed those that would qualify it 
as a class III carrier.
    As a condition to the use of this exemption, any employees affected 
by the acquisition and operation will be protected by the conditions 
set forth in New York Dock Ry.--Control--Brooklyn Eastern Dist., 360 
I.C.C. 60 (1979). Any employees affected by the trackage rights will be 
protected under Norfolk and Western Ry. Co.--Trackage Rights--BN, 354 
I.C.C. 605 (1978), as modified in Mendocino Coast Ry., Inc.--Lease and 
Operate, 360 I.C.C. 653 (1980).
    If the notice of exemption contains false or misleading 
information, the exemption is void ab initio. Petitions to revoke the 
exemption under 49 U.S.C. 10505(d) may be filed at any time. The filing 
of a petition to revoke will not automatically stay the transaction. 
Pleadings must be filed with the Commission and served on Thomas F. 
McFarland, Jr., Belnap, Spencer, McFarland & Herman, 20 North Wacker 
Drive, suite 3118, Chicago, IL 60606-3103.
