jhh, a railroad will embargo a line it is about to close. When a railroad embargoes, it notifies all the other carriers that after a certain date, its line is embargoed; that is, it no longer will accept freight to the points affected by the embargo. This is done so someone's shipment doesn't arrive at some former junction to travel a line that no longer is in service, or no longer exists. This also lets online customers know the last minute drop-dead date they can ship or receive goods. Usually, an embargo is posted a certain time prior to the embargo; I'm sure there's some Federally mandated minimum period to allow time for shipments to be delivered. (although if a line is being abandoned, there usually isn't much in the way of shipments anyway...) I'm sure your Kiamichi road issued a new set of tarrifs to cover the remaining line south of Paris, and likely effective the date of Kiamichi's startup.
