Chicago Short Line Railway Company; Trackage Rights Exemption;
Consolidated Rail Corporation
Chicago Short Line Railway Company filed a verified notice under 49
CFR 1180.2(d)(7) to acquire overhead trackage rights from Consolidated
Rail Corporation (Conrail) over 9.65 0.05 miles of rail
line, as follows: (1) The 0.05-mile segment between
Conrail's right-of-way line and the point of switch of the new
interlocked switch in Conrail's Chicago Line at milepost
509.5, in South Chicago, IL; (2) the 7.40-mile
segment comprising main tracks (including appurtenant sidings,
crossovers, and connecting tracks) of the Chicago Line between milepost
502.6, at Indiana Harbor, IN, and milepost
510.0, at South Chicago; (3) the 0.20-mile
segment of the BRC connection lead between the connection with the
Chicago Line main track at milepost 509.7, in South
Chicago, thence westerly to Conrail's property line at Rock Island
Junction, IL; and (4) the 2.0-mile segment of Conrail's
Calumet River Line between its connection with the Chicago Line at
milepost 0.0, in South Chicago, and milepost
1.9, at South Chicago, plus 0.1-mile through
110th Street Yard to LVT (Republic) Steel. The trackage rights were to
become effective on such date as the parties may agree in writing as
provided in their trackage rights agreement, but not sooner than the
effective date of the exemption.
As a condition to this exemption, any employees adversely affected
by the trackage rights will be protected under Norfolk and Western Ry.

Mendocino Coast Ry., Inc.--Lease and Operate, 360 I.C.C. 653 (1980).
If the verified notice contains false or misleading information,
the exemption is void ab initio. Petitions to reopen the proceeding to
revoke the exemption under 49 U.S.C. 10505(d) may be filed at any time.
The filing of a petition to reopen will not stay the exemption's
effectiveness. An original and 10 copies of all pleadings, referring to
Finance Docket No. 32838, must be filed with the Office of the
Secretary, Case Control Branch, Interstate Commerce Commission,
