          - [STB Finance Docket No. 33744]

                    Louisville & Indiana Railroad Company (LIRC) has agreed to grant to CSX Transportation, Inc. (CSXT) trackage rights over LIRC's line between milepost 110.56, at Louisville, KY, and milepost 4.0, at Indianapolis, IN, a distance of approximately 106.5 miles (line).[1] 

The transaction is scheduled to be consummated on June 15, 2001. The trackage rights will allow CSXT to operate efficiently between Louisville and Indianapolis.

                    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.
