Surface Transportation Board 

[STB Finance Docket No. 34533] 

Southwestern Railroad Company, 

Inc.—Lease and Operation 

Exemption—The Burlington Northern 

and Santa Fe Railway Company 

Southwestern Railroad Company, Inc. 

(SWRR), a Class III rail carrier, has filed 

a verified notice of exemption under 49 

CFR 1150.41 et seq. to lease and operate 

from The Burlington Northern and 

Santa Fe Railway Company the 

following 227.6 miles of rail line 

located: (1) On the Carlsbad Subdivision 

between milepost 0.5, at Clovis, NM, 

and milepost 183.0, at Carlsbad, NM; (2) 

in the Carlsbad Yard;1 (3) on the 

Carlsbad Industrial Spur between 

milepost 0.0 and milepost 20.0, at 

Carlsbad, NM; and (4) on the Loving 

Industrial Spur between milepost 0.0, at 

Carlsbad, NM, and milepost 20.0, at 

Loving, NM.

Because SWRR’s projected annual 

revenues will exceed $5 million, SWRR 

certified to the Board on August 4, 2004, 

that, on July 29, 2004, it had posted the 

required 60-day notice of intent to 

undertake the proposed transaction at 

the workplace of the employees on the 

affected line and that, on August 4, 

2004, it had served a copy of the notice 

of intent on the national offices of all 

labor unions with employees on the rail 

line. See 49 CFR 1150.42(e). 

SWRR states that it intended to 

consummate the transaction on or after 

the October 3, 2004 effective date of the 

exemption (60 days after its certification 

to the Board under 49 CFR 1150.42(e)). 

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. 

An original and 10 copies of all 

pleadings, referring to STB Finance 

Docket No. 34533, must be filed with 

the Surface Transportation Board, 1925
