INTERSTATE COMMERCE COMMISSION

[Finance Docket No. 32670]


Consolidated Rail Corporation--Trackage Rights Exemption--Vaughan 
Railroad Company

    Vaughan Railroad Company (Vaughan) has agreed to grant nonexclusive 
trackage rights to Consolidated Rail Corporation (Conrail) in Nicholas 
and Fayette Counties, WV, as follows: (1) Beginning at the connection 
between Conrail and the Vaughan Interconnect at milepost 
0.00 and ending at Plus Station 672 + 82 (16' 
short of milepost CAY-13.0) near Vaughan, WV; and (2) beginning at 
Vaughan on the Twentymile Creek Extension Track at Station 643 + 
00 (milepost 12.4) and extending 9.13 miles to 
the terminating point of the Twentymile Creek Extension Track at 
Robinson Fork of Twentymile Creek (Station 482 + 00).\1\ 
The proposed transaction will enable Conrail to provide nonexclusive 
transportation of coal by allowing it to access AMVEST Minerals 
Corporation or any of its corporate affiliates located on the involved 
trackage.

    \1\The line segments involve ``original'' trackage (original 
trackage agreement) dated October 18, 1993, and ``extension'' 
trackage (amended agreement) dated April 10, 1995. A notice of 
exemption seeking approval for the original trackage was not filed 
with the Commission because, at the time of agreement, the line was 
not operable.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The proposed transaction is scheduled to take effect on the date 
the parties agree in writing, but not sooner than seven days after the 
filing of the notice of exemption.
    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: Anne E. Treadway, 2001 Market St., 16A, P.O. 
Box 41416, Philadelphia, PA 19101-1416.
    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: April 25, 1995.
