Independent Auditors' Report
----------------------------
The Thrift Plan Committee
Southern Pacific Rail Corporation Thrift Plan:
We have audited the accompanying statements of net assets available for plan
benefits (modified cash basis) of Southern Pacific Rail Corporation Thrift Plan
(the Plan) as of December 31, 1995 and 1994, and the related statements of
changes in net assets available for plan benefits (modified cash basis) for the
years then ended, and the supplemental schedules as listed in the accompanying
table of contents. These financial statements and supplemental schedules are the
responsibility of the Plan's management. Our responsibility is to express an
opinion on these financial statements and supplemental schedules based on our
audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards 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. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
As described in note 2(a), these financial statements and supplemental schedules
were prepared on a modified cash basis of accounting, which is a comprehensive
basis of accounting other than generally accepted accounting principles.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the net assets available for benefits of Southern Pacific
Rail Corporation Thrift Plan as of December 31, 1995 and 1994, and changes in
net assets available for benefits for the years then ended, on the basis of
accounting described in note 2(a).
Our audits were performed for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic
financial statements taken as a whole. The supplemental schedules of (1) Item
27a - Schedule of Assets Held for Investment Purposes (Modified Cash Basis), and
(2) Item 27d - Schedule of Reportable Transactions (Modified Cash Basis) are
presented for the purpose of additional analysis and are not a required part of
the basic financial statements but are supplementary information required by the
Department of Labor's Rules and Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under
the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. The supplemental schedules
have been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audits of the
basic financial statements and, in our opinion, are fairly stated in all
material respects in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a
whole.

THRIFT PLAN
Notes to Financial Statements
(Modified Cash Basis)
December 31, 1995 and 1994
(1) DESCRIPTION OF PLAN
(a) General
The following description of the Southern Pacific Rail Corporation Thrift
Plan (the Plan) is provided for general information purposes only.
Participants should refer to the Plan document for a more complete
description of the Plan's provisions.
The Plan is a defined contribution plan which was established by Rio Grande
Holding, Inc. (RGH) on January 1, 1982 as an individual account savings and
investment plan for employees of RGH and its subsidiaries (the RGH
participants). RGH is a wholly owned subsidiary of Southern Pacific Rail
Corporation (SPRC). SPRC adopted the Plan and became its sponsor. SPRC and
its subsidiaries that are participating in the Thrift Plan are collectively
referred to as the Company. The Plan is subject to the provisions of the
Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA).
Southern Pacific Rail Corporation's employees not subject to a collective
bargaining agreement and not paid on an hourly basis are eligible to
participate in the Plan any time after the first anniversary of their
employment if they have not incurred a break in service. In addition,
certain employees which are currently covered under collective bargaining
agreements which were previously not covered have been allowed to continue
participation in the Plan.
On February 1, 1994, the Plan amended its eligibility requirement, allowing
new employees to participate immediately in the Thrift Plan and to accept
rollovers.
Effective July 1, 1994, the Plan changed the Trustee for the Plan's assets
from Northern Trust Company to Chase Manhattan.
(b) Contributions
Plan participants may elect to make employee contributions in an amount not
less than 1% nor more than 16% of their salary. These contributions may be
made on either an after-tax or a before-tax basis, or a combination of the
two, provided the total contribution does not exceed the lesser of 16% of
salary or the applicable Internal Revenue Code annual limitation of $9,240.
The employer matches the first 3% of employee contributions (whether before
-tax or after-tax) on a dollar-for-dollar basis. All contributions are
subject to limitations imposed by the Internal Revenue Code such as those
under Sections 401(k), 401(m), 402(g) and 415.
(c) Participant's Accounts
Each participant's account is credited with his or her own contributions,
employer contributions and an allocation of the Plan's earnings (or losses)
based on the type of investments selected and their performance. The
allocation of earnings (or losses) is based on each participant's account
balance by investment type.

(Modified Cash Basis)
(d) Vesting
Participant and employer contributions are fully vested when made.
(e) Investment Options
Upon enrollment in the plan, a participant may direct contributions in 1%
increments in any of six investment options:
Fixed Investment Fund - Funds are invested in high quality investment
---------------------
contracts with a diversified group of insurance companies, banks and
other financial institutions.
Value Equity Fund - As of October 1, 1994, funds are invested in
-----------------
shares of the Invesco Retirement Trust Equity Fund (a trust company
commingled fund). The fund primarily invests in common stocks and
securities convertible into common stock.
Balanced Fund - As of October 1, 1994, funds are invested in shares
-------------
of the Invesco Retirement Trust Flex Fund (a trust company commingled
fund). The fund contains a mix of stocks and high quality bonds.
International Equity Fund - As of October 1, 1994, funds are invested
-------------------------
in the Capital Guardian International (Non-U.S.) Equity Fund (a trust
company commingled fund). The fund invests in a portfolio comprised
primarily of securities of non-U.S. issuers and securities whose
principal markets are outside of the United States.
SPRC Stock Fund - Funds are invested in common stock of Southern
---------------
Pacific Rail Corporation.
Growth Equity Fund - As of October 1, 1994, funds are invested in
------------------
shares of the Invesco Trust Company Common Stock Fund (a trust company
commingled fund). The fund consists primarily of small and large
capitalization stocks with strong earnings growth.
Participants may change their investment options monthly.
Effective December 31, 1994 SFP Stock and SFP subsidiary stock (which was
held in the SFPAC stock fund) was eliminated from the plan as an investment
option. Each participant whose account was invested in that fund was
permitted to elect to withdraw, in kind, shares of stock with a fair market
value equal to the total value allocated to the participant's After-Tax
Contributions Account and Company matching contributions account as of the
date of withdrawal. All such shares not withdrawn were sold and the
proceeds were invested in the Fixed Investment Fund.

(Modified Cash Basis)
(f) Payment of Benefits
Benefits are payable to a participant upon retirement, disability, death or
termination of employment. Subject to certain hardship rules and limits, a
participant may also withdraw employer and employee contributions under
other circumstances. The benefit to which a participant is entitled is the
benefit that can be provided from that participant's account net of any
withholding for federal income taxes.
(g) Investment and Administrative Expenses
In 1995, the Plan paid investment expenses of $304,230 and administrative
expenses of $40,982. The majority of administrative expenses in 1995 were
paid by the Company. In 1994, the Plan paid investment expenses of $145,612
and administrative expenses of $137,635. In 1994, the majority
of administrative expenses of the Plan were paid by the Plan. The change in
the payor of the Plan expenses is in accordance with the Plan document.
(h) Plan Termination
SPRC may terminate the Plan at any time. In the event of termination, Plan
net assets will be allocated and distributed to the participants based on
their respective account balances.
(2) SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
(a) Basis of Accounting
The Plan's policy is to prepare its financial statements and supplemental
schedules on a modified cash basis of accounting, which is a comprehensive
basis of accounting other than generally accepted accounting principles.
Investment income receivable is accrued and investments, other than
insurance contracts, are recorded at fair value, and all other items are
recorded on a cash basis.
(b) Investment Valuation and Income Recognition
The plan's assets are stated at fair value except for its investment
contracts which are valued at contract value. Shares of commingled funds
are valued at quoted market prices which represent the net asset value of
shares held by the plan at year end. The SPRC stock is valued at its
quoted market price. The investment contracts held in the fixed investment
fund are fully benefit responsive and as such are valued at contract value.
Contract value represents contributions made under the contract, plus
earnings, less participant withdrawals. Purchases and sales of securities
are recorded on a trade-date basis. Interest income is recorded on the
accrual basis. Dividends are recorded on the ex-dividend date. The
difference between cost and market value from one period to the next is
recognized at net appreciation (depreciation) in fair value in investments
in the accompanying state of changes in net assets available for benefits.
(c) Use of Estimates
The preparation of the financial statements requires management to make
certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of
assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities
at the date of the financial statements and the disclosed amounts of income
and expenses during the reported periods. Actual results could differ from
those estimates.

(4) TAX STATUS
The Plan was amended on April 9, 1996. This revision amends and restates
the Plan to reflect changes required by the Tax Reform Act of 1986. The
Plan received a favorable determination letter from the Internal Revenue
Service on February 8, 1996 that the Plan is qualified under the provisions
of Section 401(a) of the Internal Revenue Code, as amended, and exempt from
federal income taxes under Section 501(a). The Plan administrator believes
that the Plan continues to operate in compliance with the applicable
provisions of the IRS.
(5) RELATED PARTY TRANSACTION
Certain Plan investments are shares of temporary investment funds managed
by Chase Manhattan Bank. Chase Manhattan Bank is the trustee as defined by
the Plan, and qualifies as a party-in-interest. Investment and
administrative expenses paid to the trustee by the Plan amounted to $12,364
for the year ended December 31, 1995. In addition, the Plan held stock
issued by the Plan sponsor, Southern Pacific Rail Corporation.
(6) PROPOSED MERGER WITH UNION PACIFIC
On August 3, 1995, the Board of Directors of SPRC approved an agreement
providing for the merger of SPRC and Union Pacific Railroad Company (UPRR),
a wholly-owned subsidiary of Union Pacific Corporation (UP). Under the
terms of the agreement, a subsidiary of UP acquired 25% of the common stock
of SPRC at a price of $25.00 per share pursuant to a tender offer. The
merger requires approval by the Surface Transportation Board (STB) of the
Department of Transportation (successor to the Interstate Commerce
Commission (ICC)). Based on the 255 day procedural schedule adopted by the
ICC, the earliest a decision can be expected is August 1996. The shares
purchased in the tender offer are held in a voting trust pending a decision
by the STB. Following receipt of STB approval and the satisfaction of other
conditions, SPRC (and the UP subsidiary that purchased SPRC stock in the
cash tender off) would be merged into UPRR. In the merger, each share of
SPRC stock would be

to receive $25.00 in cash or 0.4065 shares of UP common stock. Of the
shares of SPRC common stock outstanding immediately prior to the merger
(other than the shares previously acquired by UP in the tender offer), 20%
would be acquired for cash and 80% would be acquired in exchange for shares
of UP common stock.
On August 9, 1995, under the trust agreement with the trustee, transactions
by Plan participants in SPRC stock held in the SPRC Stock Fund were
temporarily frozen due to UP's tender offer. On September 15, 1995, the
Plan committee voted to allow investment activity to resume in the SPRC
Stock Fund.
On November 30, 1995, UPRR and SPRC filed an application for the proposed
merger with the ICC and the application process is ongoing. The earliest
closing of the transaction, if approved, would be September 1996.
On January 17, 1996, at a special meeting called to consider the proposed
merger, the stockholders of SPRC voted to proceed with the transaction.
(7) Voluntary Compliance Resolution Application
In October 1994, the Plan Administrator filed a Voluntary Compliance
Resolution (VCR) application with the IRS relating to the failure to timely
distribute the minimum distribution required under section 401(a)(9) to one
employee. The Plan sponsor proposes to correct the situation by
distributing to the employee from her account the required amounts due of
approximately $66,158. The IRS has not yet responded to this VCR
application. However, the Plan Administrator expects that this proposed
correction will be accepted by the IRS with no adverse implications to the
Plan's tax status.
