[STB Finance Docket No. 34115]

 
Tecumseh Branch Connecting Railroad Company--Acquisition and 
Operation Exemption--Norfolk Southern Railway Company

    Tecumseh Branch Connecting Railroad Company (TBCR), a noncarrier, 
has filed a notice of exemption under 49 CFR 1150.31 to acquire from 
Norfolk Southern Railway Company and to operate approximately 2.1 miles 
of rail line (known as the Tecumseh Branch). The rail line is a portion 
of the former Detroit, Toledo & Ironton Railroad located in the City of 
Adrian and Township of Madison, Lenawee County, MI, and extends between 
milepost 44.2 in Madison Township and milepost 46.3 in Adrian. TBCR 
certifies that its projected revenues as a result of this transaction 
will not result in the creation of a Class II or Class I rail carrier, 
and that its projected annual revenues will not exceed $5 million.
    The transaction was scheduled to be consummated on or after 
November 1, 2001.
    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. 34115, 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 Kenneth J. Bisdorf, 2301 West Big Beaver Road, Suite 600, 
Troy, MI 48084-3329.
    Board decisions and notices are available on our web site at

    Decided: November 8, 2001.

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

Secretary.
