Delphos Terminal Company, Inc.--Acquisition and Operation 
Exemption--Indiana Hi-Rail Corporation

    Delphos Terminal Company, Inc. (DTC), a noncarrier, has filed a 
verified notice of exemption under 49 CFR 1150.31 to acquire and 
operate approximately 3.8 miles of rail line owned and operated by R 
Franklin Unger, Trustee of the Indiana Hi-Rail Corporation (Hi-Rail). 
The rail line to be acquired is located between approximate milepost 
73.7 (Valuation Marker 3891 + 00.9), at or near Delphos, OH, and 
approximate milepost 77.5 (Valuation Marker 4090 + 00), at or near 
Landeck, OH, together with the interchange trackage connecting such 
line and Consolidated Rail Corporation (Conrail), at or near 
Delphos.1
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ DTC indicates that it will contract with another entity, at 
the time of filing intended to be Conrail, to perform rail services 
over the line as a contract operator.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The transaction was scheduled to be consummated after the October 
24, 1997 effective date of the exemption. The transaction is related to 
the Hi-Rail Trustee's filing of an Amended Plan of Reorganization with 
the Board in STB Finance Docket No. 33491 on October 3, 1997.
    If the verified notice contains false or misleading information, 
the exemption is void ab initio. Petitions to reopen the proceeding to 
revoke the exemption under 49 U.S.C. 10502(d) may be filed at any time. 
The filing of a petition to revoke will not automatically stay the 
transaction.
    An original and 10 copies of all pleadings, referring to STB 
Finance Docket No. 33496, must be filed with the Surface Transportation 
Board, Office of the Secretary, Case Control Unit, 1925 K Street, N.W., 
Washington, DC 20423-0001. In addition, a copy of each pleading must be 
served on Andrew P. Goldstein, Esq., McCarthy, Sweeney & Harkaway, 
P.C., 1750 Pennsylvania Avenue, N.W., Suite 1105, Washington, DC 20006.

    Decided: October 22, 1997.

    By the Board, David M. Konschnik, Director, Office of 
Proceedings.
Vernon A. Williams,
Secretary.
