[STB Finance Docket No. 33908]


Arkansas Midland Railroad Company--Lease and Operation 
Exemption--Union Pacific Railroad Company

    Arkansas Midland Railroad Company (AKMD), a Class III rail carrier, 
has filed a verified notice of exemption under 49 CFR 1150.41 to lease 
and operate pursuant to an agreement entered into with the Union 
Pacific Railroad Company (UP), approximately 7.42 miles of UP's rail 
lines in North Little Rock, AR, as follows: (1) A portion of the 
Carlisle Industrial Lead from UP's milepost 130.33 to the end of the 
line at UP's milepost 131.38, including side tracks appurtenant 
thereto, and (2) from UP's milepost 292.00 to UP's milepost 297.93, 
including side tracks appurtenant thereto, connecting with UP's 
mainline in North Little Rock Yard near milepost 343.40. AKMD certifies 
that its projected revenues as a result of this transaction will not 
result in the creation of a Class II or Class I rail carrier.
    The transaction was scheduled to be consummated on or after August 
11, 2000.
    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 will not automatically stay the transaction.
    An original and 10 copies of all pleadings, referring to STB 
Finance Docket No. 33908, 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, one copy of each pleading must 
be served on Joseph D. Anthofer, 8041 Manderson Circle, Omaha, NE 
68134.

    Decided: August 15, 2000.

    By the Board, David M. Konschnik, Director, Office of 
Proceedings.
