[STB Finance Docket No. 35300] 

Central Railroad Company of 

Indianapolis—Lease and Operation 

Exemption—Norfolk Southern Railway 

Company 

Central Railroad Company of 

Indianapolis (CERA), a Class III carrier, 

has filed a verified notice of exemption 

under 49 CFR 1150.41 to lease and to 

operate, pursuant to a lease agreement 

(Agreement) entered into on September 

14, 2009, with Norfolk Southern 

Railway Company (NSR), approximately 

15.9 miles of NSR’s rail line between 

milepost RK–154.5, a point just east of 

the grade crossing at 38th Street, in Gas 

City, Grant County, IN, and milepost 

RK–138.6 at the end of the line, at 

Hartford City, Blackford County, IN (the 

line).1 The Agreement also includes 

operating rights into Goodman Yard, 

and any sidings or sidetracks owned by 

NSR that are accessed via the line. 

CERA states that there is no provision 

or agreement that will limit future 

interchange with a third-party 

connecting carrier, whether by outright 

prohibition, per-car penalty, adjustment 

in the purchase price or rental, positive 

economic inducement, or other means. 

See 49 CFR 1150.43(h). 

CERA certifies that its projected 

annual revenues as a result of this 

transaction would not exceed those that 

would qualify it as a Class III rail 

carrier. However, because its projected 

annual revenues will exceed $5 million, 

CERA also certifies that it has complied 

with notice requirements of 49 CFR 

1150.42(e). 

The transaction is scheduled to be 

consummated on December 1, 2009, at 

least 60 days after CERA’s certification 

of the notice requirements of section 49 

CFR 1150.42(e). 

Pursuant to the Consolidated 

Appropriations Act, 2008, Public Law 

No. 110–161, § 193, 121 Stat. 1844 

(2007), nothing in this decision 

authorizes the following activities at any 

solid waste rail transfer facility: 

collecting, storing or transferring solid 

waste outside of its original shipping 

container; or separating or processing 

solid waste (including baling, crushing, 

compacting and shredding). The term 

‘‘solid waste’’ is defined in section 1004 

of the Solid Waste Disposal Act, 42 

U.S.C. 6903. 

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 November 24, 

2009 (at least 7 days before the 

exemption becomes effective). 

An original and 10 copies of all 

pleadings, referring to STB Finance 

Docket No. 35300, must be filed with 

the Surface Transportation Board, 395 E 

Street, SW., Washington, DC 20423– 

0001. In addition, a copy of each 

pleading must be served on Louis E.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Why are 

people still dying in frontal crashes 

despite seat belt use, air bags, and the 

crashworthy structures of late-model 

vehicles? Statistical analyses show the 

combination of seat belt use and air bags 

is highly effective, reducing fatality risk 

by 61 percent compared to an unbelted 

occupant of a vehicle not equipped with 

air bags—but 61 percent is not 100 

percent. To address the question, an 

interdisciplinary NHTSA team reviewed 

every case of a frontal fatality to a belted 

driver or right-front passenger in a 

model year 2000 or newer vehicle in the 

Crashworthiness Data System (CDS) of 

the National Automotive Sampling 

System through calendar year 2007. 

Aside from a substantial proportion of 

these 122 crashes that are just 

exceedingly severe, the main reason 

people are still dying is because so 

many crashes involve poor structural 

engagement between the vehicle and its 

collision partner: corner impacts, 

oblique crashes, impacts with narrow 

objects, and underrides. By contrast, few 

if any of these 122 fatal crashes were 

full-frontal or offset-frontal impacts with 

good structural engagement, unless the 

crashes were of extreme severity or the 

occupants exceptionally vulnerable.
