Rock & Rail, Inc.--Acquisition and Operation Exemption--Railroad 
Lines Near Kelker, El Paso County, CO

    Rock & Rail, Inc. (R&R), a Class III rail common carrier, has filed 
a verified notice of exemption under 49 CFR 1150.41 to acquire and 
operate sections of track it has purchased from several non-railroad 
owners.1 The railroad lines are approximately a mile in 
length, beginning at a turnout from a siding paralleling the line of 
The Burlington Northern Santa Fe Railway Company at milepost 658.45, 
near Kelker, El Paso County, CO.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ R&R represents that the sellers of the track are Kappa 
Sizma's Gamma-O Educational Foundation, First United Methodist 
Church, and Ochs Brothers, a Partnership.

    The transaction is scheduled to be consummated on or after June 17,

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 does not automatically stay the transaction.
