AUDITORS' REPORT
To the Shareholders of RaiLink Ltd.
We have audited the consolidated balance sheets of RaiLink Ltd. as at
December 31, 1998 and December 31, 1997 and the consolidated statements of
income and retained earnings and changes in financial position for the years
ended December 31, 1998 and December 31, 1997. These financial statements are
the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to
express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit.
We conducted our audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform an audit to obtain
reasonable assurance 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. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
In our opinion, these consolidated financial statements present
fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as at
December 31, 1998 and December 31, 1997 and the results of its operations and
changes in its financial position for the years ended December 31, 1998 and

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
These consolidated financial statements have been prepared by
management in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in
Canada. Because the precise determination of many assets and liabilities is
dependent upon future events, the preparation of financial statements for a
period necessarily involves the use of estimates and approximations which have
been made using careful judgment. Actual results could differ from those
estimates. These consolidated financial statements have, in management's
opinion, been properly prepared within reasonable limits of materiality and
within the framework of the accounting policies summarized below.
BASIS OF PRESENTATION
These financial statements present the operations of the Company and
its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Central Western Railway Corporation and RaiLink
Canada Ltd. All material inter-company balances and transactions have been
eliminated on consolidation.
The Company also owns a 26.7% (1997 - 24.6%) interest in an affiliate,
Quebec Railway Corporation Inc., which is accounted for using the equity method
of accounting.
MATERIAL AND SUPPLIES
Material and supplies, which consist primarily of rail, ties and other
maintenance supplies, are valued at the lower of cost, determined on an
average-cost basis, and replacement cost.
DEFERRED CHARGES
Deferred charges consist of costs incurred to arrange long-term
financing, together with organization and start-up costs of the Company.
Financing costs are being amortized over the repayment period of the
debt using the effective-yield method whereby the costs deferred are recognized
as an expense at a constant percentage of the balance of the debt outstanding
from time to time.
Organization and start-up costs are being amortized using the
straight-line method over five years.
CAPITAL ASSETS
Capital assets are recorded at cost.
Depreciation of capital assets is recorded using either the
straight-line method or the declining balance method so as to depreciate the
original cost of the assets, less estimated net residual and salvage values,
over their average service lives at the following rates:
<TABLE>
<CAPTION>
<S> <C>
Trackage and bridges................................. Straight-line over 10 to 25 years
Capital track improvements on leased properties...... Straight-line over term of lease
Locomotives.......................................... Straight-line over 10 to 15 years
Vehicles and other equipment......................... Straight-line over 5 to 10 years or 20% to 30%
declining balance
</TABLE>
<PAGE> 9
RAILINK LTD.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
<TABLE>
<CAPTION>
<S> <C>
Buildings and leasehold improvements................. 5% declining balance or straight-line at the
lesser of 5 years and the remaining term of the
lease
Office furniture and computers....................... 20% to 50% declining balance
</TABLE>
The Company capitalizes the cost of labor and materials for all major
renewals and betterments as incurred. On its leased properties the Company
estimates the total amount of renewals and betterments required over the lease
term and amortizes this amount evenly over the term of the lease.
PENSION PLAN
The Company has a pension plan, with both defined benefit and defined
contribution components. The defined benefit component provides for pensions
based on length of service and final average earnings. The cost of pension
benefits is determined using the projected benefits method, prorated on
service, and reflects management's best estimates of investment returns, wage
and salary increases and age at retirement. Adjustments resulting from plan
enhancements, experience gains and losses and changes in assumptions are
amortized over the estimated average remaining service life of employees.
For the defined contribution component, employer contributions are
expensed as incurred.
INCOME TAXES
Income taxes are determined on the tax-allocation basis whereby the
provision for income taxes each year is determined on the basis of earnings
rather than the amounts reported for income tax purposes. The difference
between such taxes and taxes currently payable or recoverable is reflected as
deferred income taxes.
2. ADVANCE
The advance of $100,000 at December 31, 1998 represents deposits paid
towards a rail network in northeastern Alberta.
The advance of $2,500,000 at December 31, 1997 represented deposits
paid at that time for a rail network in northwestern Alberta. This transaction
was completed on May 3, 1998.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
3. CAPITAL ASSETS, CONTINUED
On September 2, 1997, the Company purchased a railway line and certain
railway assets called the Lakeland & Waterways division running from Boyle to
Fort McMurray, Alberta. The operation of this division is in a developmental
stage. Included in capital assets is the original purchase cost of the land,
trackage and bridges plus the net expenses of this division's limited
operations of $365,424 from inception to December 31, 1998. Net expenses will
be capitalized while the operation is in the developmental stage and total
capitalized costs will not exceed the net realizable value of the railway
assets. Permanent operation of this division will commence when a certain
threshold of long-term traffic is reached, at which time results of operations
will be included in the Consolidated Statements of Income and Retained
Earnings.
The Company commenced operations of its rail network in northwestern
Alberta on May 3, 1998. The railway assets comprising the Mackenzie Northern
division were acquired from Canadian National Railway Company for $25,000,000.
The purchase price was allocated $712,500 to land, $24,027,500 to railway
structures, $250,000 to buildings and $10,000 to licensing agreements. These
assets were acquired for cash, with no other consideration, contingent or
otherwise, payable.
At December 31, 1998 the Company had locomotives with a net book value
of $836,280 which had been removed from service at various times throughout
1998. These locomotives were depreciated up to the date of their removal from
service and at December 31, 1998 do not exceed their net realizable value.

RECOURSE DEBT
The revolving term loan has interest charged at the Company's choice
of rates for bankers' acceptances and prime based loans. The weighted average
interest rate on borrowings outstanding at December 31, 1998 was 6.7% for these
loans.
The other term loans represent funds drawn upon by the Company under
$11,400,000 in credit facilities established with term lenders. Management
expects that draws under these facilities will be completed in May 1999 at
which time a repayment schedule will be established. Interest on these loans is
charged at prime to prime plus 0.5%.
The term loans are secured by:
o a first fixed charge on all the land, trackage and bridges
and equipment other than the Lakeland & Waterways division;
o a first fixed floating charge over all other assets; and
o an assignment of insurance on assets registered as security.
The debenture payable is secured by a fixed and floating charge on the
land, trackage and bridges of the Lakeland & Waterways division.

RAILINK LTD.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
6. LONG-TERM DEBT, CONTINUED
The Company has operating lines of credit totaling $4,250,000 which,
when drawn, bear interest at bank prime. The lines of credit are secured by a
general assignment of accounts receivable and material and supplies in priority
to the term loan lender. At December 31, 1998, $58,577 had been drawn on the
facilities (1997 - $nil).
The Company has a locomotive loan line of credit which can be drawn to
a maximum amount of $4,000,000 and can be used to fund up to 75% of the cost of
locomotives. Each advance on the loan, which is secured by the related
locomotive, is repayable over 60 months in equal amounts plus interest from the
time of drawing the funds. At December 31, 1998, no amount had been drawn on
the locomotive loan line of credit (1997 - $1,329,315).
The following is a summary of the minimum principal payments on
long-term debt required over the next five years:
1999........... $8,440,668
2000........... 1,990,668
2001........... 1,990,668
2002........... 1,596,938
2003........... 1,400,100
7. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
CREDIT RISK MANAGEMENT
The Company is exposed to credit risks in the event of non-performance
by counterparties to financial instruments; however, the Company does not
anticipate any non-performance as dealings have been with counterparties of
high quality.
INTEREST RATE EXPOSURE AND FAIR VALUES
The Company manages its interest rate exposure on its recourse debt by
choosing either fixed or floating rates. To date the Company has chosen to
manage its interest rate exposure through the use of floating rates established
by either bankers' acceptances or prime based loans, with interest varying at
bank prime to bank prime plus 0.5%. Short-term financial assets and liabilities
are valued at their carrying amounts as disclosed in the consolidated balance
sheet which are reasonable estimates of their fair values due to the relatively
short period to maturity of these instruments.
The fair value of the Company's long-term debts is assumed to
approximate the carrying amounts due to either the loans bearing interest at
floating rates for bankers' acceptances or bank prime or no significant changes
having occurred which would affect the terms and conditions of fixed interest
rate loan facilities.

Warrants were converted to Class A common shares on a one for one basis. The
Company issued an additional 2,750 Class A shares from treasury under the
Company's stock option plan for cash proceeds of $2,503.
On August 31, 1998 the Company announced that it had received approval
from The Toronto Stock Exchange to make a normal course issuer bid to purchase
for cancellation certain of its common shares. Through December 31, 1998 the
Company has purchased 56,200 shares under the bid at an average price of $6.35
per share.
The Company has a stock option plan under which options for a term not
exceeding 10 years may be granted to key employees and directors to purchase
common shares of the Company at a price not less than 100% of their fair market
value at the date of grant. 800,000 common shares have been reserved for the
exercise of options. At December 31, 1998 there were 206,684 (1997 - 86,684)
options outstanding with expiry dates ranging from October 31, 2006 to October
6, 2008 with exercise prices ranging from $0.91 per share to $11.55 per share.
In February 1999 the Company adopted a short-term Shareholder Rights
Plan (the "Plan") for the fair treatment of all shareholders. Under the Plan,
one right has been issued for each outstanding common share of the Company. The
rights remain attached to the common shares and are not exercisable until the
occurrence of certain designated events. The rights expire on May 15, 1999,
unless terminated at an earlier date by the board of directors.
9. ECONOMIC DEPENDENCE
The Company's primary customers are Canadian Pacific Railway Company
("CPR") and Canadian National Railway Company ("CN"). For the year ended
December 31, 1998, 57.3% of freight revenues were earned directly from CPR
(December 31, 1997 - 91.7%), and 42.7% of freight revenues were earned directly
from CN (December 31, 1997 - 8.3%).
Effective October 29, 1996, the Company entered into a 20-year lease
and trackage rights agreement with CPR to operate 389 miles of trackage for a
nominal cost of $2 per year. The lease provides that the operation of the
leased trackage is under the exclusive direction and control of the Company.
The lease and trackage rights agreement is subject to early termination by CPR
after 5 years under certain limited circumstances if CPR wishes to sell or
dispose of, or enter into a joint ownership agreement with respect to, all or
substantially all of its Eastern Canadian Rail Network.
As described in Note 3, on May 3, 1998, the Company acquired a rail
network in northwestern Alberta from CN. The transaction documents provide that
in the event that any third party railway corporation owns or controls,
directly or indirectly, 25% of the Company's voting shares, CN has the option
to repurchase the rail

network for its net book value at that time, plus any severance costs incurred
by the Company in respect of employees employed on that line.
10. INCOME TAXES

been expected using the combined Canadian federal and provincial statutory
income tax rate. The difference results from the items shown in the following

12. PENSION COSTS AND OBLIGATIONS
The Company has a pension plan, with both defined benefit and defined
contribution components.
DEFINED BENEFIT
The defined benefit component applies to approximately 60 employees
who transferred employment directly from CPR in connection with the
subsidiary's lease and trackage agreement with CPR. The defined benefit portion
of the plan is a mirror plan of CPR's defined benefit plan. The employees that
transferred to the subsidiary and joined the mirror plan were entitled to
transfer or buy back prior years of service. As part of this arrangement, CPR
is to transfer to the company the appropriate value of each employee's pension
entitlement.
As at December 31, 1998, accrued pension benefits are $4,023,189 (1997
- - $3,460,360) and pension fund assets are $4,237,806 (1997 - $3,659,080).
Pension expense for the year for the defined benefit members was $107,279 (1997
- - $105,456).
<PAGE> 15
RAILINK LTD.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DEFINED CONTRIBUTION
At December 31, 1998, employees not participating in the defined
benefit component of the pension plan were entitled to participate in the
defined contribution component of the pension plan. The Company contributes 3%
of a participating employee's salary to the plan.
Pension expense for the year, for the defined contribution members,
was $258,377 (1997 - $58,659).
13. LEASE COMMITMENTS
The following is a summary of the minimum lease payments on operating
leases required over the next five years:
1999............. $907,740
2000............. 59,500
2001............. 41,600
2002............. 39,250
2003............. 22,400
14. UNCERTAINTY DUE TO YEAR 2000 ISSUE
The Year 2000 Issue arises because many computerized systems use two
digits rather than four to identify a year. Date sensitive systems may
recognize the year 2000 as 1900 or some other date, resulting in errors when
information using year 2000 dates is processed. In addition, similar problems
may arise in some systems which use certain dates in 1999 to represent
something other than a date. The effects of the year 2000 Issue may be
experienced before, on, or after January 1, 2000 and, if not addressed, the
impact on operations and financial reporting may range from minor errors to
significant systems failure, which could affect RaiLink's ability to conduct
normal business operations.
It is not possible to be certain that all aspects of the Year 2000
Issue affecting RaiLink, including those related to the efforts of customers,
suppliers or other third parties, will be fully resolved.

Report of Independent Certified Public Accountants
To the Board of Directors and Shareholders
Of RailAmerica, Inc.
We have audited the reconciliation of net income of RaiLink Ltd. for the year
ended December 31, 1998 and of shareholders' equity as of December 31, 1998,
from Canadian generally accepted auditing principles to U.S. GAAP, as set out
in Schedule 1. Our audit has been conducted in accordance with generally
accepted auditing standards to provide reasonable assurance of whether the U.S.
GAAP reconciliation is free of material misstatement. Our procedures included
the examination of the audited financial statements for the year ended December
31, 1998 of RaiLink Ltd. in order to identify the application of accounting
policies which would be inconsistent with U.S. GAAP, and the examination of the
U.S. GAAP reconciliation including examining, on a test basis, of evidence
supporting the amounts of the reconciling items. These procedures have been
undertaken to form an opinion whether, in all material respects, the U.S. GAAP
reconciliation is presented fairly, and represents the amount of net income and
shareholders' equity in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The audit opinion expressed
in this report has been formed on the above basis.
In our opinion, the U.S. GAAP reconciliation of RaiLink Ltd. presents fairly,
in all material respects, the shareholders' equity of RaiLink Ltd. as of
December 31, 1998 and the results of their operations for the year ended
December 31, 1998 in conformity with U.S. GAAP.
