Missouri Pacific Railroad Company--Trackage Rights Exemption--
Union Pacific Railroad Company

    Union Pacific Railroad Company (UP) has agreed to grant 
approximately 19.09 miles of overhead and local trackage rights in 
Saline County, KS, to Missouri Pacific Railroad Company (MP), its 
corporate affiliate. The trackage extends: (1) Over 16.92 miles on UP's 
McPherson Branch from milepost 534.75 near Bridgeport, KS, to the end 
of the line at milepost 551.67 near Salina, KS (which also equals 
milepost 185.92 on UP's Salina Branch); and (2) over 2.17 miles on UP's 
Salina Branch from milepost 185.92 to milepost 183.75, near Salina. The 
proposed transaction will allow movement of MP's trains in overhead 
service and also will permit MP to serve shippers located adjacent to 
UP's line of railroad.
    The transaction was scheduled to be consummated on, or as soon as 
possible after, January 24, 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

68179.
    As a condition to the use of this exemption, any employees
