SURFACE TRANSPORTATION BOARD 

[Docket No. FD 36143] 

Goose Lake Railway, LLC—Change in 

Operator Exemption—LRY, LLC d.b.a. 

Lake Railway 

Goose Lake Railway, LLC (GLRY), a 

noncarrier, has filed a verified notice of 

exemption under 49 CFR 1150.31 to 

assume operations over approximately 

54.45 miles of rail line, known as the 

Lakeview Branch, between milepost 

458.60 at Alturas, Cal., and milepost 

513.05 at Lakeview, Or. (the Line).1

GLRY states that the Line is owned by 

Lake County, Or. (Lake County), and 

LRY, LLC d.b.a. Lake Railway (LRY) 

currently operates it pursuant to a lease 

agreement.2 According to GLRY, Lake 

County acquired the Line from the 

Southern Pacific Transportation 

Company (SPTC) after the Board’s 

predecessor, the Interstate Commerce 

Commission, authorized SPTC to 

abandon it.3 Lake County was 

authorized to operate the Line pursuant 

to a Modified Rail Certificate.4 GLRY 

states that, under the new operating 

agreement, GLRY will replace LRY as 

the operator of the Line upon 

consummation and LRY will have no 

further common carrier obligation with 

respect to the Line. GLRY also states 

that LRY has agreed to terminate its 

operation over the Line upon 

consummation of the transaction 

between GLRY and Lake County and 

does not object to the proposed change 

in operators. 

GLRY states that the proposed change 

in operators does not involve any 

provision or agreement that would limit 

future interchange with a third-party 

connecting carrier. GLRY certifies that 

its projected annual revenues as a result 

of this transaction will not result in the 

creation of a Class II or Class I rail 

carrier and would not exceed $5 

million. 

Under 49 CFR 1150.32(b), a change in 

operators requires that notice be given 

to shippers. GLRY certifies that it has 

provided notice of the proposed change 

in operators to all known shippers on 

the Line. 

GLRY intends to consummate the 

proposed transaction on or about 

September 9, 2017, the effective date of 

the exemption (30 days after the verified 

notice was filed). 

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 September 1, 2017 

(at least seven days before the 

exemption becomes effective). 

An original and 10 copies of all 

pleadings, referring to Docket No. FD 

36143, must be filed with the Surface 

Transportation Board, 395 E Street SW., 

Washington, DC 20423–0001. In 

addition, one copy of each pleading 

must be served on Robert A. Wimbish, 

Fletcher & Sippel LLC, 29 North Wacker 

Drive, Suite 920, Chicago, IL 60606. 

According to GLRY, this action is 

excluded from environmental review 

under 49 CFR 1105.6(c) and from 

historic preservation reporting 

requirements under 49 CFR 

1105.8(b)(1).
