Pickens Railway Company--Acquisition and Operation Exemption--
Norfolk Southern Railway Company

    Pickens Railway Company, a Class III rail common carrier, has filed 
a notice of exemption under 49 CFR 1150.41 to acquire and operate 18.47 
miles of rail line in Anderson County, SC, from Norfolk Southern 
Railway Company from milepost V-109.5, near Honea Path, to milepost V-
117.77, near Belton, and from milepost Z-0.0, near Belton, to milepost 
Z-10.2, near Anderson.
    The transaction was expected to be consummated on or after July 8, 
1997.
    If the notice contains false or misleading information, the 
exemption is void ab initio. Petitions to revoke the exemption under 49 
U.S.C. 10502(d) may be filed at any time. The filing of a petition to 
revoke does not automatically stay the transaction.

Finance Docket No. 33423, must be filed with the Surface Transportation 
Board, Office of the Secretary, Case Control Unit, 1925 K Street, N.W.,
