SURFACE TRANSPORTATION BOARD 

[Docket No. FD 36578] 

R.J. Corman Railroad Company, LLC 

and R.J. Corman Railroad Group, 

LLC.—Continuance in Control 

Exemption—Knoxville and 

Cumberland Gap Railroad, LLC 

R.J. Corman Railroad Company, LLC 

(RJCRC), and R. J. Corman Railroad 

Group, LLC (RJCG),1 both noncarrier 

holding companies, have filed a verified 

notice of exemption under 49 CFR 

1180.2(d)(2) to continue in control of 

Knoxville and Cumberland Gap 

Railroad, LLC (KXCG), a noncarrier 

controlled by Applicants, upon KXCG’s 

becoming a Class III rail carrier. 

This transaction is related to a 

verified notice of exemption filed 

concurrently in Knoxville & 

Cumberland Gap Railroad—Acquisition 

& Operation Exemption with 

Interchange Commitment—Rail Lines of 

Norfolk Southern Railway in Anderson, 

Campbell, Claiborne, Grainger, Knox, & 

Union Counties, Tenn., Bell & Whitley 

Counties, Ky., & Lee County, Va., Docket 

No. FD 36577, in which KXCG seeks to 

acquire from Norfolk Southern Railway 

Company (NSR) various rail lines (via 

purchase or lease assignment) and 

trackage rights, totaling approximately 

154.0 miles in length.2

The transaction may be consummated 

on or after February 24, 2022, the 

effective date of the exemption (30 days 

after the verified notice was filed). 

According to the verified notice of 

exemption, Applicants currently control 

18 Class III rail carriers, collectively 

operating in multiple states. For a 

complete list of these rail carriers and 

the states in which they operate, see 

Applicants’ January 25, 2022 verified 

notice of exemption, available at 

www.stb.gov. 

Applicants represent that: (1) KXCG 

will not connect with any other railroad 

in Applicants’ corporate family; (2) the 

transaction is not part of a series of 

anticipated transactions that would 

connect KXCG with any railroad in the 

Applicants’ corporate family; and (3) the 

transaction does not involve a Class I 

rail carrier. Therefore, the proposed 

transaction is exempt from the prior 

approval requirements of 49 U.S.C. 

11323. See 49 CFR 1180.2(d)(2). 

Under 49 U.S.C. 10502(g), the Board 

may not use its exemption authority to 

relieve a rail carrier of its statutory 

obligation to protect the interests of its 

employees. However, 49 U.S.C. 11326(c) 

does not provide for labor protection for 

transactions under 49 U.S.C. 11324 and 

11325 that involve only Class III rail 

carriers. Because this transaction 

involves Class III rail carriers only, the 

Board, under the statute, may not 

impose labor protective conditions for 

this transaction. 

If the verified 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 effectiveness of 

the exemption. Petitions for stay must 

be filed no later than February 17, 2022 

(at least seven days before the 

exemption becomes effective). 

All pleadings, referring to Docket No. 

FD 36578, should be filed with the 

Surface Transportation Board via efiling on the Board’s website. In 

addition, a copy of each pleading must
