Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe Railway Company
K & E Railway Company, a noncarrier, has filed a verified notice of
exemption under 49 CFR 1150.31 to acquire and operate over
approximately 57.69 miles of rail lines of The Atchison, Topeka and
Santa Fe Railway Company as follows: (i) Between milepost 0.6, at or
near Kiowa, KS, and milepost 56.98, at or near Blanton, OK; and (ii)
between mileposts 299.88 and 301.19 near Cherokee, OK.
The transaction was expected to be consummated on or after May 30,
1996.
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. 10502(d) may be filed at any time.

transaction.
