(1) The foregoing interim financial statements are unaudited but,
in the opinion of management, reflect all adjustments
necessary for a fair presentation of the results of operations
for the interim periods.
(2) Registrant has elected to be treated for tax purposes as a
real estate investment trust. As such, the Trust is exempt
from paying federal corporate income tax on any income that is
distributed to shareholders. It has been Registrant's policy
to distribute annually all of its ordinary taxable income.
Consequently, no provision has been made for federal income
tax.

MANAGEMENT ANALYSIS
All of Registrant's railroad properties are on long-term lease
to Norfolk and Western Railway Company for the fixed, unvarying amount
of $915,000 cash rental per year. The lease also requires that
additional, large amounts be recorded as non-cash rent income.
With fixed revenue and expenses relatively constant, there is
very little fluctuation in operating results between periods. In
comparing the third quarter of 1999 with the preceding second quarter
1999 and the third quarter of 1998, revenues totaled $229,000, $229,000
and $229,000, respectively. Net income and income available for
distribution was $205,000, $206,000 and $209,000, respectively.
