Central Railroad Co.

    Illinois Central Railroad Company (IC) has agreed to grant 
temporary overhead trackage rights to Union Pacific Railroad Company 
(UP) over IC's line between a connection with The Indiana Harbor Belt 
Railroad Company (IHB) near IC milepost 17.9 (Highlawn) and Moyers 
Intermodal Terminal near IC milepost 20.9 in Harvey, IL, a distance of 
approximately 3 miles.
    The transaction was scheduled to be consummated on or after 
September 17, 2001, the effective date of the exemption.
    The purpose of the trackage rights is to permit UP to operate over 
IC's trackage for delivering or receiving intermodal cars, trailers, 
and containers at the Moyers Intermodal Terminal.
    As a condition to this exemption, any employees affected by the 
trackage rights will be protected by the conditions imposed in Norfolk 
& Western Ry. Co.--Trackage Rights--BN, 354 I.C.C. 605 (1978), as 
modified in Mendocino Coast Ry., Inc.--Lease & Operate, 360 I.C.C. 653 
(1980).

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.
