INTERSTATE COMMERCE COMMISSION
[Docket No. AB- (Sub-No. 115)]

 

Missouri Pacific Railroad Company--Abandonment--in Miami, 
Franklin, and Osage Counties, KS; Notice

    The Commission has found that the public convenience and necessity 
permit Missouri Pacific Railroad Company (MP) to abandon a portion of 
its line of railroad known as the Hoisington Subdivision, between 
milepost 335.5, near Osawatomie, and milepost 388.25, near Osage City, 
and the Topeka Industrial Lead, between milepost 368.3, near Lomax, and 
milepost 381.8, near Overbrook, a total distance of 66.25 miles, in 
Miami, Franklin, and Osage Counties, KS.
    A certificate will be issued authorizing abandonment unless within 
15 days after this publication the Commission also finds that: (1) A 
financially responsible person has offered financial assistance 
(through subsidy or purchase), to enable the rail service to be 
continued; and (2) it is likely that the assistance would fully 
compensate the railroad.
    Any offers of financial assistance must be filed with the 
Commission and MP no later than 10 days from publication of this 
Notice. The following notation must be typed in bold face on the lower 
left-hand corner of the envelope containing the offer: ``Office of 
Proceedings, AB-OFA''. Any offer previously made must be remade within 
this 10-day period.
    Information and procedures regarding financial assistance for 
continued rail service are contained in 49 U.S.C. 10905 and 49 CFR 
1152.27.

    Decided: December 14, 1994.

    By the Commission, Chairman McDonald, Vice Chairman Morgan, and 
Commissioners Simmons and Owen.
Vernon A. Williams,
