Locust Valley Coal Company d/b/a
Locust Valley Line—Acquisition
Exemption—Rail Lines in Schuykill
County, PA
Locust Valley Coal Company d/b/a
Locust Valley Line (Locust Valley), a
noncarrier, has filed a verified notice of
exemption under 49 CFR 1150.31 to
acquire approximately 5 miles of rail
line owned by Locust Valley, between
milepost 0.0, at Laurel Jct. (also known
as Maria Jct.) in Delano Township, and
milepost 5.5, beyond Newton Jct., south
of Mahanoy City, in Schuykill County,
PA. Locust Valley states that the line is
currently out of service and there is no
operator for the line at this time.1
However, Locust Valley is in the process
of rehabilitating the rail line for service,
and developing and marketing the
adjacent property along the line to
potential shippers. Locust Valley also
states that it does not intend to operate
the line, but that it intends to lease the
rail line to an existing Class III carrier
which will provide common carrier
service over the subject line.2
Locust Valley certifies that its
projected annual revenues will not
exceed those that would qualify it as a
Class III rail carrier and that its annual
revenues are not projected to exceed $5
million.
Consummation of the transaction was
scheduled to take place on or after
December 30, 2004, the effective date of
the exemption (7 days after the
exemption was filed).
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.
1 It appears that the line has been out of service
for many years and was never abandoned.
According to Locust, service has been provided
over a 1-mile section near Laurel Jct., as a spur to
serve one customer.
2 According to Locust Valley, a request for
authority to lease and operate the line will be filed
separately with the Board prior to restoration of
service. Locust Valley states that at that time it will
have a residual common carrier obligation only.
