    Burlington Northern Railroad Co.--Trackage Rights Exemption--City 
    of Dallas, City of Fort Worth, and D/FW Railtran
    
        The Cities of Dallas and Fort Worth, TX and D/FW Railtran 
    (RAILTRAN) have agreed to renew overhead trackage rights to Burlington 
    Northern Railroad Company (BN). The trackage rights extend from 
    milepost 611.4 at North Fort Worth to milepost 643.9 in Dallas. BN will 
    continue to operate its own trains with its own crews over the RAILTRAN 
    line under these renewed trackage rights.
        These trackage rights represent a renewal of trackage rights 
    originally granted to BN's predecessor in an agreement dated November 
    16, 1911, by RAILTRAN's predecessor. This exemption is filed pursuant 
    to City of Dallas, City of Fort Worth and D/FW RAILTRAN--Petition for 
    Declaratory Order, Finance Docket No. 32406 (ICC served December 30, 
    1993). This exemption was scheduled to become effective January 13, 
    1994.
        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 and served on: Michael E. Roper, Burlington Northern 
    Railroad Company, 3800 Continental Plaza, 777 Main St., Fort Worth, TX 
    76102-5384.
        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: January 26, 1994.
    
        By the Commission, David M. Konschnik, Director, Office of 
    Proceedings.
    Sidney L. Strickland, Jr.,
    Secretary.
