    Dallas, Garland & Northeastern Railroad, Inc. (DGNO), a Class III 
rail common carrier, has filed a notice of exemption under 49 CFR

approximately 7.5 miles from Union Pacific Railroad Company (UP) 
between (1) DGNO milepost 753.7 and the end of the line near Oakland 
Avenue in Garland, TX, and (2) UP milepost 214.8 and the end of the 
line near Westmorland Road in Dallas, TX.
    In conjunction with the lease of these lines, DGNO will acquire by

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
