Consolidated Rail Corp.--Operation Exemption--A Line of the State 
of New York

    Consolidated Rail Corporation (Conrail) has filed a verified notice 
of exemption under 49 CFR 1150.31 to operate railroad trackage owned by 
the State of New York, a noncarrier. The 10,000 feet of railroad track, 
known as the Oak Point Link, lies between a point of connection with 
the Metro-North Commuter Railroad's Hudson Line, in the vicinity of 
High Bridge, and connects with yard tracks of Conrail through the 
Harlem River Yard, located in New York, Bronx County, NY.
    The transaction was expected to be consummated on October 12, 1998.
    If the verified notice contains false or misleading information, 
the exemption is void ab initio. Petitions to reopen the proceeding 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. 33673, must be filed with the Surface Transportation 
Board, Office of the Secretary, Case Control Unit, 1925 K Street, NW., 
Washington, DC 20423-0001. In addition, a copy of each pleading must be 
served on John J. Paylor, Esq., Consolidated Rail Corporation, 2001 
Market Street, 16A, Philadelphia, PA 19101-1416.
    Board decisions and notices are available on our website at

    Decided: October 16, 1998.

    By the Board, David M. Konschnik, Director, Office of 
Proceedings.

Secretary.
