INTERSTATE COMMERCE COMMISSION

[Finance Docket No. 32447]

 

Burlington Northern Railroad Co.--Trackage Rights Exemption--City 
of Dallas, City of Fort Worth, and D/FW Railtran

    The Cities of Dallas and Fort Worth, TX and D/FW Railtran 
(RAILTRAN) have agreed to renew overhead trackage rights to Burlington 
Northern Railroad Company (BN). The trackage rights extend from 
milepost 611.4 at North Fort Worth to milepost 643.9 in Dallas. BN will 
continue to operate its own trains with its own crews over the RAILTRAN 
line under these renewed trackage rights.
    These trackage rights represent a renewal of trackage rights 
originally granted to BN's predecessor in an agreement dated November 
16, 1911, by RAILTRAN's predecessor. This exemption is filed pursuant 
to City of Dallas, City of Fort Worth and D/FW RAILTRAN--Petition for 
Declaratory Order, Finance Docket No. 32406 (ICC served December 30, 
1993). This exemption was scheduled to become effective January 13, 
1994.
    This notice is filed under 49 CFR 1180.2(d)(7). If the notice 
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: Michael E. Roper, Burlington Northern 
Railroad Company, 3800 Continental Plaza, 777 Main St., Fort Worth, TX 
76102-5384.
    As a condition to the use of this exemption, any employees 
adversely 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).

    Decided: January 26, 1994.

    By the Commission, David M. Konschnik, Director, Office of 
Proceedings.
Sidney L. Strickland, Jr.,
Secretary.
