Penn Eastern Rail Lines, Inc.—

Operation Exemption—Expressway 95 

Industrial Park 

Penn Eastern Rail Lines, Inc. (Penn 

Eastern), a Class III rail carrier, has filed 

a verified notice of exemption under 49 

CFR 1150.41 to operate as a rail 

common carrier, approximately 1.15 

miles of track and right-of-way on 

easements in the Expressway 95 

Industrial Park (the Park) in Bensalem, 

Bucks County, PA. The track known as 

the Bensalem Branch is located along 

the east side of Amtrak’s Northeast 

Corridor (NEC) at ATK milepost 70.2, 

between Philadelphia, PA, and Trenton, 

NJ.1

Penn Eastern certifies that its 

projected annual revenues as a result of 

this transaction will not result in the 

creation of a Class I or Class II rail 

carrier, and that its annual revenues will 

not exceed $5 million. The transaction 

was expected to be consummated on 

August 26, 2005, the effective date of 

the exemption (7 days after the 

exemption was filed). 

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. 34745, must be filed with 

the Surface Transportation Board, 1925 

K Street, NW., Washington, DC 20423–
