    K & E Railway Company--Acquisition and Operation Exemption--The 
    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. 
    The filing of a petition to revoke will not automatically stay the 
    transaction.

    Finance Docket No. 32972, must be filed with the Surface Transportation 
    Board, Office of the Secretary, Case Control Branch, 1201 Constitution
