Union Pacific Railroad Company--Trackage Rights Exemption--
Central California Traction Company
Central California Traction Company (CCT) has agreed to grant local
trackage rights to Union Pacific Railroad Company (UP) over 2.9 miles
of CCT's rail line between milepost 41.9 near Eldercreek Road and
milepost 44.8, near Polk Junction, in the Sacramento Industrial Park
and Fruitridge, in and near the City of Sacramento, Sacramento County,
California. CCT is jointly owned by UP and The Burlington Northern and
Santa Fe Railway Company (BNSF), and, after the trackage rights are
effective, UP will handle rail cars as the operating agent for BNSF.
The transaction was scheduled to be consummated on or after June
12, 1998.
The purpose of the local trackage rights is to permit UP to serve
customers on the line, which UP expects to result
[[Page 34681]]

Sacramento.
As a condition to this exemption, any employees affected by the
trackage rights will be protected by the conditions imposed in Norfolk

false or misleading information, the exemption is void ab initio.
Petitions 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.
