INTERSTATE COMMERCE COMMISSION
[Finance Docket No. 32814]
Gateway Western Railway Company; Trackage Rights Exemption; The
Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe Railway Company
The Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe Railway Company (ATSF) has agreed
to grant limited local trackage rights to Gateway Western Railway
Company (GWWR) over approximately 8.3 miles of rail line from milepost
1.7 at Santa Fe Junction in Kansas City, MO, to milepost 10.0 at
Morris, KS.1
\1\ On December 1, 1995, GWWR filed a corrected statement with
regard to the milepost markers and the approximate total mileage
involved in this transaction. This notice includes the updated
figures.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
GWWR contends that the trackage rights will allow it access to two
shippers on ATSF's line in Kansas City, KS. Accordingly, those two
shippers will obtain additional rail service options and GWWR will have
new potential sources of traffic. The trackage rights were to become
effective on December 1, 1995.
This notice is filed under 49 CFR 1180.2(d)(7). If the notice
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 2 and served on: Thomas J. Litwiler, Oppenheimer Wolff
& Donnelly, Two Prudential Plaza, 45th Floor, 180 North Stetson Avenue,
Chicago, IL 60601.
\2\ Legislation to sunset the Commission on December 31, 1995,
and transfer remaining functions is now under consideration in
Congress. Until further notice, parties submitting pleadings should
continue to use the current name and address.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
As a condition to the use of this exemption, any employees
adversely 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).
Decided: December 8, 1995.
By the Commission, David M. Konschnik, Director, Office of
Proceedings.
Vernon A. Williams,
Secretary.
