SUMMARY: The Commission under 49 U.S.C. 10505 exempts from the prior

control by RailTex, Inc. of Dallas, Garland & Northeastern Railroad, 
Inc. (DGNO) subject to standard labor protective conditions. RailTex

into an independent voting trust, which RailTex seeks to dissolve by 
acquiring control of DGNO.

to stay must be filed October 20, 1995. Petitions to reopen must be
