    Central Kansas Railway, L.L.C.--Lease Exemption--Union Pacific 
    Railroad Company
    
        Central Kansas Railway, L.L.C. (CKR), a Class III rail common 
    carrier, has filed a notice of exemption under 49 CFR 1150.41 to lease 
    from Union Pacific Railroad Company (UP) and operate two rail lines 
    totaling approximately 170.7 miles: (1) Between milepost 747.5, at 
    Towner, CO, and milepost 491.20, at Bridgeport, KS; and
        (2) Between milepost 530.6, at Lindsborg, KS, and milepost 545.0, 
    at Sid, KS.
        In conjunction with the lease of these lines, CKR will acquire 
    incidental overhead trackage rights over UP's 6.30-mile rail line 
    between milepost 545.0, at Sid, KS, and milepost 551.30, at Salina, KS.
        The transaction is expected to be consummated on or after October 
    3, 1997.
        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
    
    [[Page 52807]]
    
    a petition to revoke does not automatically stay the transaction.
        An original and 10 copies of all pleadings, referring to STB 
    Finance Docket No. 33470, must be filed with the Surface Transportation 
    Board, Office of the Secretary, Case Control Unit, 1925 K Street, N.W.,

    225, Washington, DC 20005.
    
        Decided: October 1, 1997.
    
        By the Board, David M. Konschnik, Director, Office of 
    Proceedings.
    Vernon A. Williams,
    Secretary.
