June 23, 1995

To the Participants and Administrator
of The Penn Traffic Company
401(k) Savings Plan


In our opinion, the accompanying statement of net assets available for plan
benefits and the related statement of changes in net assets available for plan
benefits present fairly, in all material respects, the net assets available for
plan benefits of The Penn Traffic Company 401(k) Savings Plan (the Plan) at
December 31, 1994 and 1993, and the changes in net assets available for plan
benefits for the years then ended, in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles.  These financial statements are the responsibility of the
Plan's management; our responsibility is to express an opinion on these
financial statements based on our audits.  We conducted our audits of these
statements in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards which
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, assessing the accounting principles
used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall
financial statement presentation.  We believe that our audits provide a
reasonable basis for the opinion expressed above.

Our audit was made for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic financial
statements taken as a whole.  The additional information included in Schedules I
and II is presented for purposes of additional analysis and is not a required
part of the basic financial statements but is additional information required by
the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974.  Such information has been
subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the basic financial
statements and, in our opinion, is fairly stated in all material respects in
relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole.

1.   DESCRIPTION OF THE PLAN

     GENERAL
     The following brief description of the Penn Traffic Company 401(k) Savings
     Plan (the "Plan") sponsored by The Penn Traffic Company (the "Company") is
     provided for general information purposes only.  Participants should refer
     to the Plan agreement for more complete information.

     The Plan is a defined contribution plan established by the Company on
     July 9, 1987.  The Plan is designed to provide benefits to all Company
     employees who have attained age twenty-one and have completed at least one
     year of service.  As part of the Plan, the Company has entered into a trust
     agreement with the United States National Bank in Johnstown, Pennsylvania
     (the "Bank"), under which the Bank, as trustee, transfers contributions to
     a separate trust fund in the Bank's trust department.  The assets of the
     Plan are held by the Bank's trust department in a fiduciary capacity and as
     such are not assets of the Bank.  The Plan's trust fund is administered by
     the Administrative Committee of the Plan which has retained Coopers &
     Lybrand LLP in the capacity of recordkeeper of the Plan.

     CONTRIBUTIONS
     Employees in the Plan ("participants") may contribute from 1% to 12% of
     gross compensation as specified in writing and may elect to change such
     once per plan quarter.  In November of 1993, the Plan was amended to allow
     participants to contribute a maximum of 15% of gross compensation effective
     January 1, 1994.

     INVESTMENTS
     Participants have five options to which they can direct their
     contributions.  These options are a stable income fund, two diversified
     equity funds, one balanced fund and one Company stock fund.  The stable
     income fund consists of a mix of guaranteed investment contracts and two
     actively managed mutual funds.  One of the diversified equity funds, the
     MAS EQUITY FUND, invests primarily in large blue chip companies with solid
     financial characteristics and above-average dividend yields.  The other
     diversified equity fund, the ACORN FUND,  is aggressively managed with a
     higher degree of risk.  The balanced fund, the DELAWARE FUND, invests in
     stocks, bonds and money market instruments.  The "Penn Traffic" COMMON
     STOCK FUND allows employees the opportunity to purchase Company stock with
     pre-tax dollars.  A life insurance plan which allowed employees to elect to
     purchase life insurance for themselves and their spouses and children is
     still effective for those employees purchasing such insurance before
     January 1, 1989 (Note 3).

     LOANS
     Participants may obtain loans of not less that $500 but not more than the
     lesser of $50,000 or 50% of the participant's individual investment account
     balance.  Generally, the term of the loans may not exceed five years.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 1994 AND 1993
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

     DISTRIBUTIONS
     Each participant is entitled to a retirement benefit equal to 100% of the
     participant's accrued benefit as of the valuation date.  In the event of
     the death of a participant before actual retirement, 100% of the
     participant's accrued benefit on the valuation date following his/her death
     will constitute his/her death benefit and will be distributed to the
     participant's designated beneficiary or beneficiaries.  If a participant
     terminates employment, he/she will receive 100% of his/her accrued benefit
     on the valuation date following his/her separation.  A participant
     attaining the age of 59-1/2 has the right to withdraw all or a portion of
     his/her Plan assets.  An in-service distribution to a participant will only
     occur if the participant can prove financial hardship to a committee formed
     by the Company.

     INCOME
     Net investment fund income is allocated quarterly to each participant's
     investment account in the ratio of their individual investment account to
     the investment fund in total.

     RESTATEMENT OF THE PLAN AGREEMENT
     Effective December 21, 1994, the Plan agreement was restated to reflect all
     prior amendments into the Plan agreement in anticipation of the Company's
     March 1995 Internal Revenue Service determination letter filing (Note 8).

2.   SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

     BASIS OF ACCOUNTING
     The financial statements of the Plan are prepared on the accrual basis of
     accounting.  Interest and dividend income is recognized as earned and
     expenses are recognized when the related obligation is incurred.
     Investments, excluding guaranteed investment contracts, are recorded at the
     closing market prices on December 31, 1994 and 1993.  Guaranteed investment
     contracts are stated at contract value plus accrued interest.

3.   INSURANCE PLAN

     Participants of the Plan are permitted to have a portion of their
     contributions directed towards the purchase of individual life insurance
     contracts for themself, their spouse and their children, for those
     employees electing this option before January 1, 1989.  As a result of
     these elections, the Plan disburses funds periodically to the First Colony
     Life Insurance Company for the payment of life insurance premiums.  These
     insurance contracts are allocated on an individual participant basis and,
     as such, are excluded from Plan assets.

8.   TAX STATUS

     The Company received a favorable Internal Revenue Service (IRS)
     determination letter dated March 10, 1992 stating the Plan meets the
     requirements of Section 401(a) and 401(k) of the IRS code and that the Plan
     is exempt from taxation under Section 501(a) of the IRS code.

     On March 31, 1995, the Company filed for an IRS determination letter for
     the Plan restated as of December 21, 1994.  The Company believes that the
     restated Plan meets the requirements of Sections 401(a) and 401(k) of the
     IRS Code and that the restated Plan is exempt from taxation under Section
     501(a) of the IRS Code.

     Under present federal income tax laws, a participant will not be subject to
     federal income taxes on the contributions by the participant or on interest
     or profits on the sale of securities held by the Plan until the
     participant's assets are distributed.


9.   PLAN TERMINATION

     The Company expressly reserves the right to terminate the Plan.  In the
     event of termination, all Plan objectives will be satisfied.  All
     unallocated assets will then be allocated to the accrued benefits of the
     participants' accounts at the date of termination at which time the
     participants are fully vested.
