Just in case you have multiple "Start"s and "End"s in your text file, this will import all the data together, excluding all the "Start"s and "End"s.

with open('path/to/input') as infile, open('path/to/output', 'w') as outfile:
    copy = False
    for line in infile:
        if line.strip() == "Start":
            copy = True
            continue
        elif line.strip() == "End":
            copy = False
            continue
        elif copy:
            outfile.write(line)
