[STB Finance Docket No. 34534]


Columbia & Reading Railway Co.--Acquisition Exemption--Frank Sahd 
Salvage Center, Inc.

    Columbia & Reading Railway Co. (CRRC), a noncarrier, has filed a 
verified notice of exemption under 49 CFR 1150.31 to acquire from Frank 
Sahd Salvage Center, Inc. (Sahd Salvage) approximately 2.5 miles of 
rail line, from milepost 39.3 in the Borough of Columbia to milepost 
37.2 in West Hempfield Township in Lancaster County, PA. Sahd Salvage 
has agreed to transfer the rail line to CRRC so that it may develop 
common carrier rail operations, which will be provided by a to be 
determined third party. CRRC is a corporate affiliate of Sahd Salvage.
    CRRC certifies that its projected annual revenues will not exceed 
those that would qualify it as a Class III rail carrier and that its 
annual revenues are not projected to exceed $5 million.
    CRRC states that the parties intended to consummate the transaction 
on or about August 9, 2004, the effective date of the exemption (7 days 
after the exemption was filed).
    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. 34534, must be filed with the Surface Transportation 
Board, 1925 K Street NW., Washington, DC 20423-0001. In addition, one 
copy of each pleading must be served on Jeffrey O. Moreno, Esq, 1920 N 
Street, NW., Suite 800, Washington, DC 20036.
    Board decisions and notices are available on the Board's Web site 
at http://www.stb.dot.gov.

    Decided: August 20, 2004.

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