The Surface Transportation Board (Board) is accepting for consideration the DME-2 primary application and the undesignated related filings filed August 29, 2002, by Dakota, Minnesota & Eastern Railroad Corporation (DM&E), Cedar American Rail Holdings, Inc. (Holdings), and Iowa, Chicago & Eastern Railroad Corporation (IC&E).\2\ The primary application seeks Board approval and authorization under 49 U.S.C. 11321-26 for DM&E's acquisition of indirect control of IC&E through ownership of IC&E's stock by Holdings, which is itself a wholly owned subsidiary of DM&E. The related filings seek related trackage rights relief contingent upon approval of the primary application. The Board finds that the transaction proposed in the primary application is a "minor transaction" under 49 CFR 1180.2(c). ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
