Iowa Northern Seeks to Operate UP Line Gain Rights to CP Trackage

Forest City Iowa USA - Iowa Northern Railway has filed an exemption notice with the STB to acquire trackage rights from Canadian Pacific for 78.2 miles of former Dakota, Minnesota & Eastern Corp. track running through Garner, Nora Junction, and Plymouth Junction, Iowa.
 
The trackage rights would enable Iowa Northern to move freight between the connection of the Forest City Line and the three Iowa towns on CP's line.
 
The STB expects the Forest City Line operation transaction and trackage rights agreement to be finalized in early June.
