     This Amendment No. 2 to the Transaction Statement on Schedule 13E-3, filed
jointly by DOCP Acquisition LLC, a New York limited liability company
("Purchaser"), CSX Corporation, a Virginia corporation ("CSX"), Norfolk Southern
Corporation, a Virginia corporation ("NSC") and Walter G. Rich (with any
amendments, supplements, exhibits or schedules thereto, this "Schedule 13E-3"),
relates to the offer by Purchaser to purchase all outstanding shares of common
stock, par value $0.125 (the "Shares"), of Delaware Otsego Corporation, a New
York corporation (the "Company"), at a price of $22.00 per Share, net to the
seller in cash, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in
Purchaser's Offer to Purchase dated August 22, 1997 (the "Offer to Purchase")
and in the related Letter of Transmittal. This Amendment amends and supplements
the Transaction Statement on Schedule 13E-3 filed prior hereto. Unless otherwise
indicated all capitalized terms used herein shall have the same meanings as set
forth in the Offer to Purchase.
 
ITEM 16.  ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
 
     Item 16 of this Schedule 13E-3 is hereby amended by the addition of the
following:
 
          On or about August 21, 1997, a second complaint respecting a purported
     class action, captioned Bergman v. Walter G. Rich et al., Index No. 2110,
     was filed in the Supreme Court of the State of New York for the County of
     Otsego (the "Second Complaint"). The Second Complaint names as defendants
     the Company and the members of the Company Board, including Mr. Rich, as
     well as CSX and NSC. The allegations in the Second Complaint are along the
     lines of those in the Complaint (see "SPECIAL FACTORS -- Certain Litigation
     Relating to the Offer and the Merger" in the Offer to Purchase) and
     substantially the same relief is sought. Purchaser, Mr. Rich, CSX, NSC and
     the Company believe the claims in the Second Complaint are meritless. The
     foregoing summary is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Second
     Complaint, a copy of which has been filed with the Commission as an exhibit
     to the Schedule 14D-1 and which is incorporated herein by reference.
