1.   The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial
     statements have been prepared in accordance with generally
     accepted accounting principles for interim financial
     information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule
     10-01 of Regulation S-X.  Accordingly, they do not include all
     of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted
     accounting principles for complete financial statements.  In
     the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of
     normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair
     presentation have been included.

2.   The results of operations for the three months ended March 31,
     1996, are not necessarily indicative of the results to be
     expected for the year ended December 31, 1996, due to certain
     freight revenues subject to seasonal variations.   For further
     information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and
     footnotes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on
     Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1995.

3.   Earnings per common share have been adjusted retroactively to
     reflect a 5% stock dividend declared January 26, 1996.

4.   Certain prior year data has been reclassified  to conform to
     the 1996 presentation.

5.   Investment in affiliate on the consolidated balance sheet and
     equity interest in loss of affiliate on the consolidated
     statement of operations reflects the Company's acquisition of
     a 40% interest in The Toledo, Peoria and Western Railroad
     Corporation on January 31, 1996.  The investment is accounted
     for under Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 18, The
     Equity Method of Accounting for Investments in Common Stock.

          CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (THOUSANDS)
- ------------------------------------------------------------
RECENT ACQUISITION
- ------------------

On January 31, 1996, the Company completed the purchase of a 40%
interest in The Toledo, Peoria and Western Railroad Corporation
("TP&W") for consideration totalling $2.25 million, including 125,000
shares of the Company's common stock.  The non-stock portion of the
consideration for the acquisition was funded through a $1 million
loan.  Additionally, the Company issued warrants to purchase 60,000
common shares to another party involved in the transaction.  The
exercise price of each warrant is $9.53 per share, after giving effect
to the 5% stock dividend declared January 26, 1996.  The Company will 
perform administrative services for the TP&W which will have a positive
impact on general and administrative expenses for 1996 and beyond.  
At December 31, 1995, the Company had incurred $592 of advances related 
to the purchase which were recorded in other current assets.  The $592 
was reimbursed at closing on January 31, 1996.  The investment is 
accounted for under the provisions of APB 18, The Equity Method of 
Accounting for Investments in Common Stock.


The following Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations relates to the continuing
operations of the Company.


LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
- -------------------------------

The Company's cash and cash equivalents at March 31, 1996, totaled
$1,222.  Cash generated from operations, sales of property,
additional debt and contributed capital are the Company's principal
sources of liquidity and are used primarily for capital expenditures,
debt service, and working capital requirements.

At March 31, 1996, the Company's working capital deficit was $6,685,
compared to $5,284 at December 31, 1995, resulting in a working
capital ratio of 60.0% compared to 66.0% at December 31, 1995.  Total
long-term liabilities at March 31, 1996 were $26,939.  Long-term debt
(exclusive of current maturities) including convertible subordinated
notes, as a percentage of equity at March 31, 1996, was 50.6%
compared to 50.5% at December 31, 1995, and total capitalization
(long-term debt, convertible subordinated notes and equity) was
$49,933 compared to $48,828 at December 31, 1995.

At March 31, 1996, notes payable consist of a secured advance under
a $5 million line of credit with Manufacturers and Traders Trust

                                     - 8 -
<PAGE>

Company.  Interest on these borrowings is at prime plus 1%.  Prime
at March 31, 1996 was 8.25%.  Available borrowings are based on and
secured by eligible accounts receivable.  At March 31, 1996, eligible
accounts receivable were $3.5 million and borrowings on the line were
$3.3 million. 

The Company may borrow up to $500 from an equipment line of credit
with Key Bank of New York which expires on April 30, 1997.  At March 
31, 1996, the Company had not drawn down on the line.  The interest 
rate is the lender's base rate plus three quarters percent (3/4%.)  
The line expires on April 30, 1997.

In the three month period ended March 31, 1996, additions to
property, plant and equipment were $1,000 of which $651 or 65.1% was
funded by grants from the New York and New Jersey Departments of
Transportation.  The balance was provided by additional debt.  Based
upon the availability of funds, the Company's capital spending program 
for the balance of 1996 is anticipated to be approximately $13 million,
of which $8 million is for railway projects. The balance is for acquisition
of land, terminal upgrades and technological advances.  It is anticipated
that funding for the capital program for the balance of 1996 will be met
by grants from participating state governments, available funds from
the lines of credit, cash generated by operations, additional long-
term debt and proceeds from sales of non-operating assets.  The
Company believes it has adequate working capital to fund existing and
anticipated operations for at least the next twelve months.

As was reported in the December 31, 1995 Annual Report on Form 10-K,
the Company entered into a contract to sell certain parcels of
railroad property of a non-operating Company subsidiary for $500,
which is anticipated to close during 1996.  The carrying amount is
estimated at $110.  A portion of the purchase price is subject to the
buyers obtaining government funding.  The proceeds will be used for
working capital purposes.


RESULTS OF OPERATIONS 
- ---------------------

The Company relies on, and its ability to compete is dependent upon
its rail connections with CP and with Conrail for a substantial
portion of its rail traffic.  Changes in the operations of either of
these carriers could have a material adverse impact on the Company.

The Company has two major customers that provided approximately 71%
and 69% of the Company's railroad volume for the three month period
ended March 31, 1996 and 1995, respectively, amounting to $5,467 and
$5,428, for the respective periods. The loss of either customer would
have a material adverse effect on the company's results of
operations.

Railway operating revenues, consisting of intermodal, carload and
other railway operating revenues, in the aggregate improved $90 for
the three month period ended March 31, 1996, compared to the
corresponding 1995 period.  Intermodal revenues from CSX Intermodal,
Inc. were approximately $4,063, an increase of $443 compared to the
respective 1995 period.  Intermodal revenues from Hanjin Shipping
Lines were $1,403, a decline of $404 compared to the same period in
1995, due principally to the impact of soft demand in the domestic
retail market.  Th Company cannot ascertain whether this softness is
a trend or an aberration of the seasonal norm.

Carload revenues for the three month period ended March 31, 1996
declined insignificantly compared to the respective three month
period in 1995.

Other railway operating revenues for the three month period ended
March 31, 1996 improved $69 compared to the same period in 1995.

Other operating revenues for the three month period ended March 31,
1996 declined $266 compared to the respective 1995 period, due mostly
to declined rent and construction revenues of $47 and $160
respectively.  The decline in construction revenue is due principally
to lesser billable costs for reimbursable state projects.

Maintenance, transportation and car hire expenses in the aggregate
for the three month period ended March 31, 1996 increased $217
compared to the same period in 1995.

Maintenance expenses in the aggregate for the three month period
ended March 31, 1996 were up $263 compared to the respective 1995
period, due principally to severe winter weather in January, 1996
resulting in heavy snow falls and flooding in the Northeast.

Transportation and car hire expenses in the aggregate for the three
month period ended March 31, 1996 declined approximately $46 compared
to the same period in 1995.

Depreciation and amortization expenses for the three month period
ended  March 31, 1996 exceeded the respective 1995 period by $113,
due principally to additions to property, plant and equipment.

General, administrative and other expenses for the three month period
ended March 31, 1996 declined $93 compared to the same period in
1995, due to reduced professional fees, and the positive effects of
recovering amounts in excess of incremental expenses for
administrative and clerical support pursuant to an Administrative
Services Agreement between the Company and the TP&W.

As a result of the foregoing, the operating loss for the three month

                                    - 10 -
<PAGE>

period ended March 31, 1996 increased $413 compared to the
corresponding period in 1995.  The operating ratio for the three
month period ended March 31, 1996 was 113.2% compared to 107.6% for
the comparable 1995 period.

Interest expense net, comprised of interest expense, (net of
capitalized interest) and interest income, for the three month period
ended March 31, 1996 increased $48 compared to the corresponding 1995
period.  Total interest expense for the period ended March 31, 1996
was $410 compared to $361 for the 1995 period, due principally to
interest rate and outstanding debt differentials.

The Company's effective income tax rate on income before income taxes
for the three month period ended March 31, 1996 was 34.0% compared
to 30.7% in the respective 1995 period.

On January 26, 1996, the Company declared a 5% stock dividend payable
to stockholders of record February 17, 1996.  The dividend was paid
on March 20, 1996, resulting in the issuance of 82,297 shares of
common stock.  All data in the accompanying financial statements and
related notes have been restated to give effect to the dividend.
