The Locomotive Preservation & Operating Group, Inc., d/b/a The 
Sheffield Station Junction Railway--Lease and Operation Exemption--
Armco Asset Management

    The Locomotive Preservation & Operating Group, Inc., doing business 
as The Sheffield Station Junction Railway, a noncarrier, has filed a 
verified notice of exemption under 49 CFR 1150.31 to lease and operate 
approximately 20 miles of rail lines located within the Sheffield 
Station Industrial Park, Kansas City, MO, and owned by Armco Asset 
Management, a unit of Armco, Inc. The proposed transaction was to be 
consummated on the date of final agreement of the parties, but not 
sooner than May 27, 1996 (the effective date of the exemption).
    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. 32960, must be filed with the Surface Transportation 
Board, Office of the Secretary, Case Control Branch, 1201 Constitution
