                                  PART I

Item 1.     Business

        Missouri Pacific Railroad Company (the "Registrant") includes the
Registrant, a Class I Railroad incorporated in Delaware and a wholly-owned,
indirect subsidiary of Union Pacific Corporation (the "Corporation"), as well as
a number of wholly-owned and majority-owned subsidiaries of the Registrant
engaged in various railroad and related operations, and various terminal
companies in which the Registrant has minority interests.  In addition to its
railroad operations, the Registrant performs truck freight services through its
wholly-owned subsidiary, Union Pacific Motor Freight Company ("UPMF").

        The Registrant operates in the midwestern and southwestern states of
Arkansas, Colorado, Illinois, Kansas, Louisiana, Missouri, Nebraska, Oklahoma,
Tennessee and Texas.  The Registrant maintains coordinated schedules with other
carriers for the handling of freight to and from the Atlantic seaboard, the
Pacific Coast, the Southeast, the Southwest, Canada and Mexico.  Export and
import traffic is moved through Gulf Coast ports and across the Texas-Mexico
border.  The Registrant's operations have been coordinated with those of Union
Pacific Railroad Company ("UPRR"), another wholly-owned, indirect subsidiary of
the Corporation.  The two railroads operate as a unified system.  See Note 2 to
the Registrant's financial statements for information on related party
transactions.

        In 1993, the Registrant had transportation revenues of $2.1 billion,
approximately 98.2 percent of which were derived from rail freight operations. 
Percentages of revenue ton-miles ("RTM") and rail freight revenue for major
commodities during 1993, 1992 and 1991 were as follows:

<PAGE> 2

        The Registrant's trucking subsidiary principally serves rail
movements.  UPMF has authority from the Interstate Commerce Commission ("ICC")
to operate between all points in the continental United States and also has
nationwide authority to provide contract services for the Corporation's motor
carrier broker, Union Pacific Freight Services Company.

Competition
- -----------

        In its rail transportation business, the Registrant is subject to
competition from other railroads, motor carriers and barge operators.  Most of
its railroad operations are conducted in corridors served by competing railroads
and by motor carriers.  Motor carrier competition has been strengthened by 
longer combination vehicles which are now allowed in a number of states in which
the Registrant operates.  Because of the proximity of the Registrant's routes to
major inland and Gulf Coast waterways, seasonal barge competition can be
particularly pronounced.

Employees
- ---------

        As is true with employees of all the principal railroads in the
country, the majority of the Registrant's employees are organized along craft
lines and represented by national labor unions.  The Registrant continues to
adapt agreements from the previous round of national negotiations to meet local
requirements throughout its system.  The Registrant has negotiated the ability
to operate all through-freight trains with two-person crews, and is currently
modifying operations to take full advantage of this ability.

        On December 31, 1994, all outstanding labor contracts will reopen for
negotiation.  Discussions concerning the Registrant's notices for contract
revisions will begin in October.  The negotiations will likely continue through
1995 and management is optimistic that they will be completed in an expeditious
manner.

Governmental Regulation
- -----------------------

        The Registrant's operations are subject to the regulatory
jurisdiction of the ICC, other Federal agencies and various state agencies.  The
ICC has jurisdiction over rates charged on certain regulated traffic, freight 
car compensation, issuance or guarantee of railroad and certain railroad holding
company securities, extension or abandonment of rail lines, and acquisitions of 
control of rail common carriers and motor carriers by rail common carriers. 
Other Federal agencies have jurisdiction over safety, movement of hazardous
materials, movement and disposal of hazardous waste, and equipment standards. 
The state agencies regulate intrastate freight rates to the extent that they 
have adopted Federal standards and procedures and continue to follow such 
procedures. However, several states in which railroad operations are conducted 
have ceded intrastate rail rate regulation to the ICC.  Various state and local 
agencies also have jurisdiction over disposal of hazardous wastes and seek to 
regulate movement of hazardous materials.

Item 2. Properties

Operating Equipment
- -------------------
  
        At December 31, 1993 the Registrant owned or leased from others 1,264
locomotives, 29,953 freight cars and 2,003 units of work equipment. 
Substantially all of the Registrant's railroad rolling stock is subject to the
liens of the Registrant's First Mortgage and General (Income) Mortgage as well
as the lien of the First Mortgage of the Texas and Pacific Railway Company, its
predecessor in interest (collectively the "Mortgages").  In addition, a portion
of this property is subject to various equipment obligations which are superior
to the liens of one or more of the Mortgages.

        In connection with its motor freight operations, the Registrant
operated 92 tractors, 42 rampers, and 928 trailers at December 31, 1993.

Rail Property
- -------------

        The Registrant operates approximately 9,700 miles of track, including
8,000 miles of main line and 1,700 miles of branch line.  Approximately 10
percent of the main line track consists of trackage rights over track owned by
others.  The Registrant's right-of-way and tracks are subject to one or more of
the Mortgages.

Item 3. Legal Proceedings

Registered Income Certificates
- ------------------------------

        On June 7, 1991, Timothy O. Stuy, purporting to represent a class of all
certificateholders, filed an action in the United States District Court for the
District of Delaware (Civil Action No. 91-322) against the Registrant with
respect to the Certificates Representing a Charge on Income, dated January 1,
1958 (the "Certificates"), which had been issued by The Missouri-Kansas-Texas
Railroad Company (the "Katy").  The Registrant acquired the Katy in 1988 and
assumed the Katy's obligations with respect to the Certificates at that time. 
The lawsuit asserted, among other things, that certain contingent sinking fund
payments were not made as a result of allegedly improper modifications to the
terms of the Certificates and other actions by the defendant, and sought an
unspecified amount of damages and injunctive relief.  The Certificate
modifications were approved by the ICC in connection with the Katy acquisition. 
The lawsuit was stayed pending resolution of a lawsuit previously filed in the
Delaware District Court that raised similar issues with respect to the Katy's 
5 1/2% Subordinated Income Debentures due January 1, 2033 (the "Debentures").  
In response to motions filed by the Registrant and other defendants, the 
Debenture lawsuit was dismissed by the District Court for lack of subject matter
jurisdiction.  On November 17, 1993, the Registrant filed a motion to dismiss 
the Certificate lawsuit on similar grounds.  On February 16, 1994, a Stipulation
and Order of Dismissal was entered by the District Court dismissing the 
Certificate lawsuit with prejudice to the named plaintiff.

<PAGE> 4

Environmental
- -------------

        In October 1992, the Registrant received a Complaint and Notice of
Opportunity for Hearing from Region VIII of the Environmental Protection Agency
("EPA") alleging various violations of the Toxic Substances Control Act at the
Clive, Utah and Timpe, Utah transfer facilities owned by USPCI, Inc., an
affiliate of the Registrant, including the failure to properly mark railcars
containing polychlorinated biphenyls ("PCB"), failure to properly dispose of PCB
waste, failure to properly contain or store PCB waste, and failure to properly
manifest PCB waste.  The Complaint includes a proposed penalty totalling
$295,000.  The Registrant has met with the EPA and expects to settle these
alleged violations for substantially less than the initial penalty demand. 

        In December 1992, the Texas Natural Resources Conservation Commission
("TNRCC") served the Registrant with a Notice of  Violation for alleged
discharges and fuel spills at the Registrant's San Antonio, Texas railyard.  The
TNRCC proposed penalties totalling $500,000.  The Registrant and the TNRCC have
tentatively settled this matter for a penalty payment of $300,000 plus the
implementation of certain environmental projects in Texas costing $275,000.  

        In addition to the foregoing, the Registrant has received notices
from the EPA and state environmental agencies alleging that it is or may be
liable under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and 
Liability Act of 1980 and/or other Federal or state environmental legislation 
for the remediation costs associated with alleged contamination or for 
violations of environmental requirements at various sites throughout the United 
States.  There are approximately 12 sites for which such notices have been 
received which are on the Superfund National Priorities List or state superfund 
lists.  Although specific claims have been made by the EPA and state regulators 
with respect to some of these sites, the ultimate impact of these proceedings 
and suits by third parties cannot be predicted at this time because of the 
number of potentially responsible parties involved, the degree of contamination 
by various wastes, the scarcity and quality of volumetric data related to many 
of the sites and/or the speculative nature of remediation costs.  Nevertheless, 
at some of the superfund sites, the Registrant believes it will have little or 
no exposure because no liability should be imposed under applicable law, one or 
more other financially able parties generated all or most of the contamination, 
or a settlement of the Registrant's exposure has been reached although 
regulatory proceedings at the sites involved have not been formally terminated.

        While the ultimate cost of resolution of the foregoing issues cannot
be fully determined, the Registrant does not believe that the resolution of such
issues will materially affect the Registrant's financial condition or results of
operations.

Item 5. Market for Registrant's Common Equity and Related Stockholder Matters

        All of the Common Stock and Class A Stock of the Registrant is owned
by a wholly-owned indirect subsidiary of the Corporation.  Accordingly, there is
no market for the Registrant's capital stock.  Dividends on the Registrant's
Common Stock, which are paid on a quarterly basis, totalled $90 million in 1993
and $70 million in 1992.  Through 1993, no dividends had been declared or paid
on the Registrant's Class A Stock; however, a $3.4 million special cash dividend
will be paid on the Class A Stock in 1994.  See Notes 6 and 8 to the 
Registrant's financial statements for a discussion of dividend restrictions on 
the Common Stock and Class A Stock.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT

To the Board of Directors
Missouri Pacific Railroad Company
Omaha, Nebraska

We have audited the accompanying statements of consolidated financial position
of Missouri Pacific Railroad Company (a wholly-owned indirect subsidiary of
Union Pacific Corporation) and subsidiary companies (the "Registrant") as of
December 31, 1993 and 1992, and the related statements of consolidated income
and retained earnings and of consolidated cash flows for each of the three
years in the period ended December 31, 1993.  Our audits also included the
financial statement schedules listed in the foregoing index to financial
statements.  These financial statements and financial statement schedules are
the responsibility of the Registrant's management.  Our responsibility is to
express an opinion on the financial statements and financial statement
schedules based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards.  Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to
obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of
material misstatement.  An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence
supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.  An audit
also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant
estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial
statement presentation.  We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis
for our opinion.

In our opinion, such consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all
material respects, the financial position of the Registrant at December 31,
1993 and 1992, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each
of the three years in the period ended December 31, 1993, in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles.  Also, in our opinion, such
financial statement schedules, when considered in relation to the basic
consolidated financial statements taken as a whole, present fairly in all
material respects the information set forth therein.

As discussed in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, the
Registrant changed its method of accounting for postretirement benefits other
than pensions, income taxes and transportation revenue and expense recognition
in January 1993.

<PAGE> F-7

   MISSOURI PACIFIC RAILROAD COMPANY AND CONSOLIDATED SUBSIDIARY COMPANIES

                             ACCOUNTING POLICIES

PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Missouri Pacific
Railroad Company and all subsidiaries (the "Registrant"). The Registrant is a
wholly-owned, indirect subsidiary of Union Pacific Corporation (the
"Corporation"). Investments in affiliated companies (20% to 50% owned) are
accounted for on the equity method.  All material intercompany transactions are
eliminated. 

MATERIALS AND SUPPLIES

Materials and supplies are carried at the lower of average cost or market.

REVENUE RECOGNITION

Transportation revenues are recognized on a percentage-of-completion basis, 
while delivery costs are recognized as incurred (See Note 1).

PROPERTIES

Properties are stated at cost.  Upon sale or retirement of units of depreciable
operating property, gains and losses are charged to accumulated depreciation. 
With respect to all other property sold or retired (principally land sold for
industrial development or as surplus property), cost and any related accumulated
depreciation are removed from the accounts and gain or loss is recognized upon
disposition.

DEPRECIATION

Provisions for depreciation are computed principally on the straight-line method
based on estimated service lives of depreciable properties.

INTANGIBLE ASSETS

Intangible and other assets include the cost in excess of fair value of net
assets of acquired businesses associated with the Registrant's 1988 purchase of
The Missouri-Kansas-Texas Railroad Company (the "Katy").  Amortization is
recorded over 40 years on a straight-line basis.  The Registrant regularly
assesses the recoverability of costs in excess of net assets of acquired
businesses through a review of cash flows and fair values of such businesses.

HEDGING TRANSACTIONS

The Registrant periodically hedges hydrocarbon purchases.  Gains and losses from
these transactions are recognized upon receipt of the commodity.

CHANGE IN PRESENTATION

Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform with the 1993
financial presentation.

<PAGE> F-8

   MISSOURI PACIFIC RAILROAD COMPANY AND CONSOLIDATED SUBSIDIARY COMPANIES

                 NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1.   Accounting Changes

In January 1993, the Registrant adopted the following accounting changes with a
cumulative after-tax charge to earnings of $125.2 million.

Other Postretirement Benefits ("OPEB")

Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 106, "Employers'
Accounting for Postretirement Benefits Other Than Pensions", requires that the
cost of non-pension benefits for retirees be accrued during their period of
employment.  The adoption of this Statement will not affect future cash funding
requirements for these benefits.  The OPEB component of the cumulative effect
adjustment is a $73.5 million charge.  See Note 9.

Income Taxes

SFAS No. 109, "Accounting For Income Taxes", requires the balance sheet approach
of accounting for income taxes, whereby assets and liabilities are recorded at
the tax rates currently enacted.  The Registrant's results were not 
significantly affected by the adoption of this Statement; however, future 
results may be affected by changes in the corporate income tax rate.  1993's 
income tax expense (before accounting changes) rose $26.5 million as a result of
the Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1993 (the "1993 Tax Act") (See Note 5).
The income tax component of the cumulative effect adjustment is a $42.2 million 
charge.

Revenue Recognition

The Registrant changed its method of transportation revenue and expense
recognition from accruing both revenues and expenses at the inception of service
to the industry practice of allocating revenues between reporting periods based
on relative transit time, while recognizing expenses as incurred.  The
Registrant's results were not, and are not expected to be, significantly 
affected by this accounting change.  The revenue recognition component of the 
cumulative effect adjustment is a $9.5 million charge.

2.   Related Party Transactions

The Registrant is an affiliate of Union Pacific Railroad Company ("UPRR") and 
has significant interline rail shipments, equipment rents, and fuel and diesel 
power exchanges with that railroad.  These transactions are settled in a manner 
similar to that used for comparable transactions with nonaffiliated railroads.  
Balances representing interline receivables and payables with UPRR are 
classified as due to affiliated companies. 

Certain management and staff functions of the Registrant have been combined with
those of UPRR.  In addition, the affiliated railroads have centralized 
purchasing and disbursing functions which are handled by UPRR.  Also, repairs to
locomotives and freight cars are made on a system-wide basis without regard to 
ownership or usage.  Marketing, administrative and other expenses (including, 
but not limited to, those discussed above) are allocated to the Registrant based
on revenue contribution, gross ton-miles or time in service.

A summary of directly-incurred and allocated costs included in operating 
expenses (excluding the 1991 special charge - see Note 3) is as follows:

Amounts due to and from affiliates, including the Corporation, bear interest at
an annually determined rate which considers the Corporation's cost of debt. Net
intercompany interest expense on such amounts was $65.5 million, $71.1 million,
and $65.9 million in 1993, 1992 and 1991, respectively.

3.   Special Charge
In 1991, the Corporation announced a major restructuring program, including a
$366 million pretax ($241 million after-tax) charge relating to the Registrant. 
Of the pretax amount, $221 million represented a provision for severance 
payments and other costs associated with the reduction in the size of train 
crews and administrative personnel.  The remaining $145 million was for costs 
related to the disposition of light density rail lines.  The Registrant spent 
$88.8 million and $47.3 million in 1993 and 1992, respectively, relating to the 
restructuring program.

4.   Accounts Receivable
The Registrant has sold, on a revolving basis, an undivided ownership interest 
in a designated pool of the Registrant's accounts receivable to UPRR.  The 
undivided ownership interest has been sold by UPRR to third parties.  Collection
risk on the pool of receivables is minimal.  Under the terms of the agreement, 
UPRR acts as a collection agent for the Registrant.  At both December 31, 1993 
and 1992, accounts receivable are presented net of $137 million in proceeds 
generated from the receivables sold.

5.   Income Taxes
The Registrant is included in the consolidated income tax return of the
Corporation.  The consolidated income tax liability of the Corporation is
allocated among the parent and its subsidiaries on the basis of their separate
contributions to the consolidated income tax liability, with full benefit of tax
losses and credits made available through consolidation being allocated to the
individual companies generating such losses and credits. 

In August 1993, President Clinton signed the 1993 Tax Act into law raising the
Federal corporate income tax rate to 35 percent from 34 percent retroactive to
January 1.  As a result, 1993 income tax expense increased by $26.5 million:
$23.1 million for the one-time non-cash recognition of deferred income taxes
related to prior periods and $3.4 million of incremental current year Federal
income tax expense.

Components of income tax expense for the Registrant are as follows:

Certain debt agreements impose dividend restrictions on the Registrant.  The
amount of retained earnings available for dividends at December 31, 1993 was
$822.2 million.  See Note 8 for other dividend restrictions.

<PAGE> F-11

Terms of certain of the Registrant's mortgage bonds, the 5% income debentures 
and the 5-1/2% subordinated income debentures require that interest be paid only
from "available income", as defined in the indenture agreements.  The mortgage 
bonds and 5% income debentures impose sinking fund and other restrictions in the
event all interest is not paid.  All interest was paid on the mortgage bonds and
5% income debentures for each of 1993, 1992 and 1991.

The Registrant assumed the 5-1/2% subordinated income debentures (the
"Debentures") in connection with the Katy acquisition.  Current interest must be
paid only to the extent that there is available income remaining after 
allocation to a capital fund for the purpose of reimbursing the Registrant for 
certain capital expenditures.  Unpaid interest accumulates to an amount not in 
excess of 16-1/2% of the principal amount of the Debentures and is paid only to 
the extent that there is available income remaining after payment of the current
interest.  

The certificates constituting a charge on income (the "Certificates"), which 
were also assumed as part of the Katy acquisition, do not bear interest and 
payments to a sinking fund for the Certificates are made only from available 
income, as defined in such Certificates.  Available income must be applied to 
the capital fund, current and accumulated interest on the Debentures and a 
sinking fund for the Debentures before any payment is made to the sinking fund 
for the Certificates.

Available income of $15.2 million was generated in 1993 with respect to the
Debentures and the Certificates.  As a result, an interest payment on the
Debentures of $2.6 million will be made in 1994, representing $1.5 million for
1993 interest and $1.1 million for remaining unpaid accumulated interest.  In
addition, $6.9 million of available income will be applied to the capital fund,
$2.3 million will be applied to the sinking funds for the Debentures and the
Certificates, and $3.4 million will be applied as dividends on the Registrant's
Class A stock (See Note 8).  Amounts applied to sinking funds may be covered by
the cost of securities previously repurchased by the Registrant or the Katy. 
After the 1994 interest payment, all unpaid accumulated interest on the
Debentures will have been paid to debentureholders.  Amounts in the capital fund
which are unused or unappropriated for the reimbursement of capital expenditures
may not exceed $4.0 million at any time, and after the application of 1993
available income there will be no unused or unappropriated capital fund balance.

During 1993, $23.7 million of the outstanding Debentures were reacquired,
principally in connection with a lawsuit settlement.  In addition, in February
1993, the remaining $25 million of the 7.50% Exchangeable Guaranteed Notes due
2003, which were issued in conjunction with the acquisition of the Katy, were
exchanged for approximately 774,000 shares of the Corporation's common stock.  

The Registrant's total interest payments approximate interest expense net of
intercompany interest described in Note 2.

At December 31, 1993, the carrying amount of the Registrant's long and 
short-term debt exceeded its fair value by approximately 21%, estimated using 
quoted market prices or the Registrant's current borrowing rates.

7.   Lease Commitments

The Registrant leases a general office building, computer equipment and
transportation equipment under long-term and contingent lease agreements.  The

  8.  Capital Stock

Concurrently with the acquisition of the Katy, 80 shares of the Registrant's
$1.00 par value common stock were exchanged for 80 shares of $1.00 par value
Class A stock.  The remaining 920 shares of common stock outstanding and the 80
shares of Class A stock have identical voting rights and other privileges except
with respect to dividends.

The Class A stock is entitled to a cash dividend whenever a dividend is declared
on the common stock, in an amount which equals 8% of the sum of the dividends on
both the Class A stock and the common stock.  However, dividends may be declared
and paid on the Class A stock only when there is unappropriated available income
in respect of prior calendar years which is sufficient to make a sinking fund
payment equal to 25% of such dividend for the benefit of the Debentures or the
Certificates.  To the extent that dividends are paid on the common stock but not
the Class A stock because the amount of unappropriated available income is
insufficient to make such a sinking fund payment, a special cash dividend on the
Class A stock shall be paid when sufficient unappropriated available income
exists to make the sinking fund payment.  Such insufficiency does not affect the
Registrant's right to declare dividends on the common stock.  Available income
for 1993 will be sufficient to provide for a $3.4 million special cash dividend
on the Class A stock (see Note 6), to be paid in 1994.  After such payment,
dividends in arrears on the Class A stock will total $25.1 million.

There are no other dividend restrictions on the Registrant's capital stock other
than those described in Note 6.

9.  Retirement Plans 

The Registrant participates in the Corporation's defined benefit pension plans
covering substantially all salaried employees.  Pension plan benefits are based
on years of service and compensation during the last years of employment. 
Company contributions to the plans are calculated based on the Projected Unit
Credit actuarial funding method and are not less than the minimum funding
standards set forth in the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as 

<PAGE> F-13

amended.  Pension expense allocated to the Registrant under the Corporation's 
plans amounted to $17.7 million in 1993, $14.8 million in 1992, and $11.6 
million in 1991.

The Registrant provides postretirement health care and life insurance benefits 
to substantially all salaried and certain hourly employees through participation
in the Corporation's postretirement benefit plans.  The Corporation adopted the
provisions of SFAS No. 106 (See Note 1) in January 1993.  Railroad agreement
employees' health care benefits are covered by a separate multiemployer plan and
therefore are not subject to the provisions of this Statement.  The Registrant's
cash payments for these benefits (which were not affected by the adoption of 
SFAS No. 106) were $5 million in 1993.  The Registrant's Accumulated 
Postretirement Benefit Obligation at December 31, 1993 and its 1993 
postretirement benefit expense were $119 million and $9 million, respectively.  
In late 1993, the Corporation amended its postretirement health care plans to 
provide greater employee cost sharing.  As a result, the Registrant's future 
plan expense will be reduced.  The Corporation does not currently pre-fund 
health care and life insurance benefit costs.

10.     Contingent Liabilities

There are various lawsuits pending against the Registrant.  The Registrant is
also subject to Federal, state and local environmental laws and regulations, and
is currently participating in the investigation and remediation of numerous
sites.  Where the remediation costs can be reasonably determined, and where such
remediation is probable, the Registrant has recorded a liability.  The 
Registrant does not expect that the lawsuits or environmental costs will have a 
material adverse effect on its consolidated financial position or its results of
operations.

Selected unaudited quarterly financial information for 1993 and 1992 are as

  MISSOURI PACIFIC RAILROAD COMPANY AND CONSOLIDATED SUBSIDIARY COMPANIES

       MANAGEMENT'S NARRATIVE ANALYSIS OF THE RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

                           1993 COMPARED TO 1992

     In the first quarter of 1993, the Registrant recorded a $125.2 million
after-tax charge to reflect the adoption of new Financial Accounting Standards
Board ("FASB") pronouncements as described in Note 1 to the Financial
Statements.  In the third quarter, the Registrant recorded a $23.1 million
charge reflecting a deferred tax adjustment that resulted from the 1993 Tax Act
(see Note 5 to the Financial Statements).  As a result of these accounting
adjustments and the effects of weather-related traffic interruptions, the
Registrant's net income declined to $73.8 million compared to $191.2 million in
1992.  Excluding the accounting adjustments, the Registrant would have earned
$222.1 million in 1993.  

OPERATING REVENUES

     Operating revenues increased $19 million to $2.1 billion (despite being
adversely affected by the severe winter and the record 1993 flooding in the
Midwest), reflecting a 2% increase in carloadings offset by a 2% decline in
average revenue per car. Carloadings increased in intermodal (11%), automotive
(5%) and chemicals (2%), while decreases occurred in grain and grain products
(2%), food/ consumer/government (1%) and metals/minerals/forest (1%). Energy
traffic remained flat compared to the prior year.

OPERATING EXPENSES

     Operating expenses totaled $1.7 billion, $33 million (2%) lower than a year
ago, as weather-related cost increases were more than offset by increased
charges to other carriers and efficiency-driven expense containment.  Other
costs declined $26 million due to flood-related increases in repair work on
joint facility lines billed to other roads, additional third-party billings,
higher overhead credits for work performed on capital projects, and trackage
rights settlements.  Salary and wages decreased $5 million as productivity
improvements and train crew reductions offset both volume and weather-related
increases and wage and benefit inflation.  Material and supplies expense
declined $3 million as improved materials management offset weather-related
usage increases.  Fuel and utility expense also decreased $3 million as lower
fuel prices and an improved fuel consumption rate offset volUme growth.  These
lower costs were partially offset by higher depreciation charges, which resulted
from the implementation of SFAS No. 109 and continuing capital spending, and a
$1 million increase in rent expense caused by higher volumes.

OPERATING INCOME

     Operating income rose $52 million to $410 million as a result of continued
cost containment and volume growth.

OTHER CHANGES

     Interest expense decreased $16 million, mainly the result of lower interest
rates, the repayment of maturing equipment trust obligations, the exchange of
the 7.5% Exchangeable Guaranteed Notes and the repurchase of certain Missouri-
Kansas-Texas Railroad Company 5-1/2% Subordinated Income Debentures (the
"Debentures") (see Notes 2 and 6 to the Financial Statements).  Other income
decreased $14 million, primarily the result of lower real estate sales,
partially offset by a $3.5 million pretax gain on repurchases of Debentures. 
Income taxes increased $46 million as a result of the 1% increase in the Federal
income tax rate, higher pretax earnings and the adoption of SFAS No. 109.

OTHER MATTERS

     The FASB has issued Statements No. 112, "Employers' Accounting for
Postemployment Benefits", and No. 115, "Accounting for Certain Investments in
Debt and Equity Securities", both effective by January 1994.  Statement No. 112
requires employers to recognize the obligation to provide benefits to former or
inactive employees after employment but prior to retirement.  Statement No. 115
creates new reporting classifications for investments in debt and certain equity
securities.  Management has evaluated these Statements and has determined that
they will not have a significant effect on the Registrant.
