East Chattanooga Belt Railway Company--Acquisition and Operation 
Exemption--Norfolk Southern Railway Company

    East Chattanooga Belt Railway Company (ECBT), a noncarrier, has 
filed a verified notice of exemption under 49 CFR 1150.31 to acquire by 
lease and operate a line of railroad currently owned by Norfolk 
Southern Railway Company (NS) beginning at approximately NS milepost 
448, in the vicinity of CP 23rd Street, railroad valuation station 
1+25, and extending to valuation station 5633+27, at the intersection 
of the rail line and Awtry Street, a distance of approximately 4.4 
route miles in Chattanooga, TN.
    The parties report that they intend to consummate the transaction 
on or after the April 4, 2001 effective date of the exemption (7 days 
after the exemption was filed).

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.
