                            PART I.  FINANCIAL INFORMATION


ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS


The Company's sales for the second quarter ended June 30, 1996 were $39.1
million, representing a 19.0% increase over the same quarter one year ago.
Gross profit for the 1996 second quarter of  $11.2 million represented a 16.6%
increase over the 1995 second quarter.  The quarterly sales increase resulted
from strong sales of train control systems, carborne equipment and asset
management services partially offset by  lower train inspection systems sales.
Expenditures for research and development for the second quarter increased 39.6%
in 1996 and increased as a percentage of sales to 4.4% from 3.8% in 1995.  This
increase represents a shift of engineering resources from application
engineering projects to research and development along with the addition of new
engineering resources.  One of the major development activities is Incremental
Train Control System as described in our 1995 Form 10K.  As a percentage of
sales, gross profit for the three months ended June 30, 1996 decreased to 28.7%
from 29.4% for the same period last year.  This decline is almost entirely the
result of the increase in research and development expenditures in the second
quarter of  1996 compared to 1995.

Sales for the six months ended June 30, 1996 increased 24.5% over last year to
$77.5 million.  The sales increase reflects strong sales of train control
systems, carborne equipment, asset management services and signal hardware
products, partially offset by lower sales of printed circuit boards.  Year to
date expenditures for research and development increased 39.7% for the first six
months of 1996 compared to the same period a year ago.  As a percentage of sales
for the same period, research and development increased to 4.1% in 1996 from
3.7% in 1995.  This increase for the first six months of 1996 is due to  the
same reasons noted above for the quarter.  Gross profit for the six month period
increased 25.4% to $21.0 million in 1996 and increased slightly as a percentage
of sales to 27.0% in 1996 from 26.8% last year.  The increase in margins
resulting from the absence of the 1995 integration costs of the acquired hot box
detector line was virtually offset by the increased research and development
expenditures and the higher proportionate sales of lower margin asset management
services.

Selling, general and administrative expenses (SG&A), increased 9.5% for the 
three months ended June 30, 1996 compared to the same period last year.  As a 
percentage of sales for the same period, SG&A decreased to 16.8% from 18.2%. 
The increased SG&A expenses in absolute dollars in the second quarter of 1996 
was primarily higher selling expenses commensurate with higher sales 
(approximately $250 thousand), higher fringe benefit expenses (approximately 
$200 thousand), increased incentive based compensation expenses which vary 
with the earnings of the Company (approximately $100 thousand), higher 
depreciation expenses (approximately $80 thousand) and  general inflation, 
partially offset by lower legal and audit expenses (approximately $325 
thousand).  The decrease in SG&A as a percentage of sales reflects generally 
the leveraging of costs over the higher sales volume, as well as the absence 
of integration costs of the acquired hot box detector line and costs 
associated with new computer systems implementations incurred during 1995.  
For the six month period ended June 30, 1996, SG&A increased 9.7% over last 
year but similarly decreased as a percentage of sales to 16.4% in 1996 from 
18.6% in 1995.  The increased SG&A expenses for the six months was again 
primarily due to higher selling

                                         -6-

expenses (approximately $335 thousand), higher incentive based compensation
(approximately $275 thousand), higher depreciation (approximately $200
thousand) and general inflation, partially offset by decreased legal and audit
expenses (approximately $400 thousand).  The decrease in SG&A as a percentage of
sales for the first six months of 1996 reflects the same reasons noted above.

Orders for the Company's products and services increased from $35.2 million in
1995 to $36.2 million in 1996 for the second quarter and increased slightly from
$70.9 million in 1995 to $71.1 in 1996 for the six months ended June 30.  The
second quarter increase reflects growth in train control systems, asset
management services and signal hardware products offset partially by decreased
carborne equipment and printed circuit board orders.   The slight increase in
orders for the first six months of 1996 compared to 1995 reflects strong growth
in the freight rail market for control systems, asset management services and
signal hardware products offset by decreased orders for train control systems
from the rail transit market and decreased orders for carborne equipment from
freight rail customers and printed wiring boards.  The order backlog at June 30,
1996 was $34.7 million, down from $49.1 million at December 31, 1995 and $55.0
million one year ago.  The backlog decrease reflects the high shipment levels
and comparison to backlogs containing a large rail transit project order which
was substantially completed by the first quarter of 1996.

Interest expense increased from $190 thousand to $234 thousand for the three
months ended June 30, 1996 compared to the same period last year.  Year to date
interest expense through June 30, 1996 also increased to $489 thousand from $337
thousand in 1995.  Increased average outstanding interest bearing debt and
higher interest rates when compared to last year account for the increased
interest expense.

The effective tax rate decreased from 39.5% in 1995 to 39.0% in 1996 for the
three months and decreased from 40.1% in 1995 to 38.5% in 1996 for the six
months ended June 30, 1996.  This decrease reflects a combination of lower non-
deductible expenses and lower state income taxes in 1996.

The Company's liquidity and capital resources remain strong.  The Company has
approximately $9 million available under existing bank lines of credit at the
end of the second quarter of 1996, up  from approximately $6 million at December
31, 1995 but down from approximately $13 million one year ago.  Positive cash
was generated through collection of account receivables and a significant
reduction in contracts in progress.
