Ogeechee Railway Company--Lease Exemption--Line of Central of
Georgia Railroad Company
The Ogeechee Railway Company (Ogeechee), a Class III rail carrier,
has filed a verified notice of exemption under 49 CFR 1150.41 to lease
from Central of Georgia Railroad Company (CGA), a subsidiary of Norfolk
Southern Railroad Company, and operate approximately 42.6 miles of rail
line. The rail line to be leased includes: a previously abandoned line
of railroad between former milepost GF-152.0 near Vadalia, Toombs
County, GA, and former milepost GF-171.0 near Kirby, Emanuel County,
GA; and CGA's active line-of-railroad between milepost GF-171.0 near
Kirby, GA, and the southern line of CGA's line of railroad between
Millen and Tennille, GA, at milepost GF-194.6 near Midville, Burke
County, GA.1
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\1\ Ogeechee certifies that its annual revenues will not exceed
those that would qualify it as a Class III carrier and its revenues
are not projected to exceed $5 million.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
The earliest the transaction could be consummated was November 23,
1998, (7 days after the notice of 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. 33683, must be filed with the Surface Transportation
Board, Office of the Secretary, Case Control Unit, 1925 K Street, N.W.,
