    NEBKOTA Railway, Inc.--Acquisition and Operation Exemption--Line 
    of Chicago and North Western Transportation Co.; Exemption
    
        NEBKOTA Railway, Inc. (NEBKOTA), a noncarrier, has filed a notice 
    of exemption under 49 CFR 1150.31 to acquire and operate a 73.5-mile 
    line of the Chicago and North Western Transportation Company (CNW) 
    between Merriman, at or near milepost 331.0, and Chadron, at or near 
    milepost 404.5, in Cherry, Sheridan, and Dawes Counties, NE.
        The transaction includes the acquisition of incidental trackage 
    rights over a 27.8-mile CNW rail line in Dawes County between Chadron, 
    at or near milepost 404.5, and Crawford, at or near milepost 432.3. 
    With the trackage rights, NEBKOTA will be able to interchange with 
    Burlington Northern Railroad Company. The transaction was to become 
    effective on or after January 10, 1994. The parties certify that 
    NEBKOTA's projected revenues do not exceed those that would qualify it 
    as a class III carrier.
        As a condition to the use of this exemption, any employees affected 
    by the acquisition and operation will be protected by the conditions 
    set forth in New York Dock Ry.--Control--Brooklyn Eastern Dist., 360 
    I.C.C. 60 (1979). Any employees affected by the trackage rights will be 
    protected under Norfolk and Western Ry. Co.--Trackage Rights--BN, 354 
    I.C.C. 605 (1978), as modified in Mendocino Coast Ry., Inc.--Lease and 
    Operate, 360 I.C.C. 653 (1980).
        If the notice of exemption contains false or misleading 
    information, the exemption is void ab initio. Petitions to revoke the 
    exemption under 49 U.S.C. 10505(d) may be filed at any time. The filing 
    of a petition to revoke will not automatically stay the transaction. 
    Pleadings must be filed with the Commission and served on Thomas F. 
    McFarland, Jr., Belnap, Spencer, McFarland & Herman, 20 North Wacker 
    Drive, suite 3118, Chicago, IL 60606-3103.
    
        Decided: January 14, 1994.
    
        By the Commission, David M. Konschnik, Director, Office of 
    Proceedings.
    Sidney L. Strickland, Jr.,
    Secretary.
