Kyle Railroad Company--Acquisition and Operation Exemption--Omaha
Public Power District
Kyle Railroad Company (KR),1 a Class III rail carrier,
has filed a notice of exemption under 49 CFR 1150.41 to acquire
pursuant to a rail transportation agreement and operate approximately
56.75 miles of rail line as indicated by KR in its notice, which is
owned by Omaha Public Power District (OPPD),2 between
milepost 56.30 at Collegeview, and milepost 6.10 at Arbor in Lancaster
and Otoe Counties, NE.3
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\1\ KR states that its projected revenues will not exceed those
that would qualify it as a Class III rail carrier.
\2\ See Omaha Public Power District--Acquisition--The Burlington
Northern and Santa Fe Railway Company, STB Finance Docket No. 33447
(STB served Sept. 12, 1997).
\3\ On July 31, 1998, KR filed a petition for exemption in STB
Finance Docket No. 33642 (Sub-No. 1), Kyle Railroad Company--
Acquisition and Operation Exemption-- Omaha Public Power District,
wherein KR requests that the Board permit the proposed acquisition
and operation of OPPD's rail line as described-above to expire on
December 31, 2003. That petition will be addressed by the Board in a
separate decision.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
The transaction was expected to be consummated on or shortly after
August 4, 1998.
If the notice 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.

Board, Office of the Secretary, Case Control Unit, 1925 K Street, NW,
