    Chicago SouthShore & South Bend Railroad--Trackage Rights 
    Exemption--CSX Transportation, Inc.
    
        CSX Transportation, Inc. (CSXT) has agreed to grant overhead 
    trackage rights to Chicago SouthShore & South Bend Railroad (CSS) over 
    CSXT's Barr Subdivision between the connection with CSS at milepost 
    BI241.4, at Miller, IN, and CSXT's connection with Baltimore and Ohio 
    Chicago Terminal Railroad Company (B&OCT) at milepost BI248.8, at Pine 
    Junction, IN, a distance of approximately 7.4 miles.
        The transaction is scheduled to be consummated on or shortly after 
    June 30, 1999.
        The purpose of the trackage rights is to permit CSS to interchange 
    certain traffic with B&OCT at Barr Yard, thereby promoting operating 
    efficiencies.
        As a condition to this exemption, any employees affected by the 
    trackage rights will be protected by the conditions imposed in 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).
        This notice is filed under 49 CFR 1180.2(d)(7). If it contains 
    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.
        An original and 10 copies of all pleadings, referring to STB 
    Finance Docket No. 33774, must be filed with the Surface Transportation 
    Board, Office of the Secretary, Case Control Unit, 1925 K Street, NW.,
