Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firms

The Stockholders and Board of Directors
Conrail Inc.:

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Conrail Inc. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2003, and the related consolidated statements of income, stockholders’ equity and cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended December 31, 2003. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the Standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. We were not engaged to perform an audit of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also 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.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Conrail Inc. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2003, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended December 31, 2003, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

As discussed in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, effective January 1, 2003 the Company adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 143, Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations.

CONRAIL INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Information pertaining to December 31, 2004 and the year then ended is unaudited, except for Note 2)

1.	Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
	Description of Business
	Conrail Inc. (“Conrail” or the “Company”) is a holding company whose principal subsidiary is Consolidated Rail Corporation (“CRC”), a principal switching and terminal railroad operating in Pennsylvania, New Jersey and Michigan. Norfolk Southern Corporation (“NSC”) and CSX Corporation (“CSX”), two of the major railroad holding companies in the United States, jointly control Conrail through their ownership interests in CRR Holdings LLC (“CRR”), whose major subsidiary is Green Acquisition Corporation (“Green Acquisition”), which owns Conrail. NSC and CSX have equity interests in CRR of 58% and 42%, respectively, and voting interests of 50% each. Through its subsidiary, CRC, Conrail owns, manages and operates certain rail properties (“Shared Assets Area”) for the joint and exclusive benefit of the railroad subsidiaries of NSC and CSX, Norfolk Southern Railway Company (“NSR”)and CSX Transportation, Inc. (“CSXT”), respectively.
	On August 27, 2004, Conrail, NSC and CSX completed a reorganization of Conrail (“Conrail Reorganization”), which resulted in the spin-off of two former CRC subsidiaries, Pennsylvania Lines LLC (“PRR”) and New York Central Lines LLC (“NYC”), respectively. Prior to the Conrail Reorganization, PRR and NYC owned a substantial share of Conrail’s assets and leased these assets through separate but identical operating agreements to NSR and CSXT, respectively. As a result of the Conrail Reorganization, the operating and lease agreements were terminated and PRR and NYC were merged into NSR and CSXT, respectively. Consequently, the results of operations, and assets and liabilities for PRR and NYC have been classified as discontinued operations in the consolidated financial statements for all periods presented. In addition, as part of the Conrail Reorganization, the Company restructured its existing unsecured and secured indebtedness, with the consent of CRC’s debtholders (see Note 2 to the Consolidated Financial Statements).
	The Conrail Reorganization did not involve the Shared Assets Area. Accordingly, subsequent to the Conrail Reorganization, the major source of the Company’s revenues is from CSXT and NSR, related to fees paid for their joint access and reimbursable cost incurred by CRC in operating the Shared Assets Area. Also, effective with the Conrail Reorganization and the restructuring of its existing unsecured and secured debt, Conrail has entered into various sublease arrangements with NSR and CSXT.
	Principles of Consolidation
	The consolidated financial statements include the Company and its majority-owned subsidiaries. As of January 1, 2004, the financial statements also include the consolidated results for a variable interest entity for which the Company is the primary beneficiary. (See Note 1 New Accounting Pronouncements.) Investments in 20% to 50% owned companies are accounted for by the equity method. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. Effective with the Conrail Reorganization, the Company no longer has any equity investees.
	Cash Equivalents
	Cash equivalents consist of highly liquid securities purchased with a maturity of three months or less, and are stated at cost which approximates market value.
	Material and Supplies
	Material and supplies consist of maintenance material valued at the lower of cost or market.

CONRAIL INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
(Information pertaining to December 31, 2004 and the year then ended is unaudited, except for Note 2)

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are recorded at cost. Depreciation is provided using the group method over estimated service lives. Expenditures, including those on leased assets that extend an asset’s useful life or increase its utility, are capitalized. Maintenance expense is recognized when repairs are performed. The cost (net of salvage) of depreciable property retired or replaced in the ordinary course of business is charged to accumulated depreciation and no gain or loss is recognized. Gains and losses on disposal of land and all other property are included in Other Income, net. (See Note 11). In 2004, the overall depreciation rate averaged 3.2% for all roadway and equipment.

During 2003, the Company completed a study to update the estimated useful lives of its roadway and track property and the associated accumulated depreciation reserves. This review did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Asset Impairment

Long-lived assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Expected future cash flows from the use and disposition of long-lived assets are compared to the current carrying amounts to determine the potential impairment loss.

New Accounting Pronouncements

Conrail adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Interpretation No. 46R, “Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities” (“FIN 46R”) which requires that a variable interest entity be consolidated by the company that is subject to a majority of the economic risks and/or rewards of that entity. Pursuant to FIN 46R, on January 1, 2004, the Company consolidated a locomotive leasing entity, Locomotive Management Services (“LMS”) and recorded a $1 million net adjustment for the cumulative effect of this accounting change. LMS had total assets, primarily depreciable equipment, of $35 million as of December 31, 2004. Total liabilities as of December 31, 2004, totaled $36 million, including $4 million and $26 million of current and long-term debt, respectively. The consolidation of LMS will not have an impact on net income in future periods as the Company previously accounted for its investment in LMS under the equity method of accounting.

Conrail also adopted FASB Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 143, “Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations”, effective January 1, 2003. Pursuant to SFAS 143, companies are precluded from accruing removal cost expenses that are not legal obligations. Previously, Conrail and most other railroads had accrued removal costs as a component of depreciation expense. In the first quarter of 2003, Conrail recorded income of $40 million ($65 million before taxes) for the cumulative effect of this change. Of this amount, $38 million ($62 million before taxes) is related to the discontinued operations of PRR and NYC. Effective with this pronouncement, removal costs are expensed as incurred. This change did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Revenue Recognition

The Company’s major sources of revenues are from NSC and CSX, primarily in the form of rental revenues and operating fees, which are recognized when earned (Note 2). Conrail also has third party revenues, which are recognized when earned, related to the operations of Indiana Harbor Belt Railroad Company, a 51% owned terminal railroad subsidiary.

	Use of Estimates
	The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Management reviews its estimates, including those related to the recoverability and useful lives of assets as well as liabilities for litigation, environmental remediation, casualty claims, income taxes and pension and postretirement benefits. Changes in facts and circumstances may result in revised estimates.
	Reclassifications
	Certain amounts in the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto have been reclassified to conform to the 2004 presentation.
2.	Conrail Reorganization
	On August 27, 2004, Conrail, together with NSC and CSX, completed the Conrail Reorganization. Prior to the Conrail Reorganization, CRC’s former subsidiaries, PRR and NYC owned a substantial share of Conrail’s assets and leased these assets through separate but identical operating agreements to NSR and CSXT, respectively. Pursuant to the Conrail Reorganization, these agreements were terminated and the direct ownership of PRR and NYC was transferred to NSR and CSXT, respectively. The Conrail Reorganization has been approved by the Surface Transportation Board (“STB”) and has received favorable rulings from the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) regarding certain tax matters.
	As a part of the Conrail Reorganization, the Company restructured its existing unsecured and secured public indebtedness, with the consent of CRC’s debt holders. NSR and CSXT offered substantially similar unsecured debt securities in a 58%/42% ratio in exchange of CRC’s unsecured debentures. Of the $800 million total unsecured debentures, $779 million were accepted for exchange and became direct unsecured obligations of NSR and CSXT. The Company’s secured debt and lease obligations remained obligations of CRC and are supported by new leases and subleases which became the direct lease and sublease obligations, also in a 58%/42% ratio of NSR and CSXT, respectively. In accordance with EITF 87-24, “Allocation of Interest to Discontinued Operations”, interest expense related to the exchanged debt and the direct lease and sublease obligations assumed by NSR and CSXT has been allocated to discontinued operations for all periods presented.
	At August 27, 2004, the Company charged $4.2 billion, principally the net assets of the discontinued operations of PRR and NYC against stockholders’ equity to reflect the Conrail Reorganization. In addition, Conrail recorded net operating loss carrybacks and carryforwards of approximately $73 million and $27 million, respectively, related to the Conrail Reorganization (See Note 8).

Leases

The Company’s noncancelable long-term leases generally include options to purchase at fair value and to extend the terms. Certain lease obligations are payable in Japanese yen, which require the maintenance of yen-denominated deposits sufficient to satisfy the yen-denominated obligation. These deposits are included in the “Other assets” line item of the balance sheet and totaled $33 million and $43 million at December 31, 2004 and December 31, 2003, respectively. Capital leases have been discounted at rates ranging from 3.09% to 14.26% and are collateralized by net lease receivables of $67 million at December 31, 2004.

The future minimum lease payments for the capital and operating leases net of the lease receivable amounts due under the equipment financing agreements are as follows:

	Conrail recorded net operating loss carrybacks and carryforwards of approximately $73 million and $27 million, respectively, related to the Conrail Reorganization. The Company has not recorded a valuation allowance, as management believes that it is more likely than not that the results of future operations will generate sufficient taxable income to realize the deferred tax assets.
9.	Pension and Other Postretirement Benefits
	The Company and certain subsidiaries sponsor defined benefit qualified and nonqualified pension plans, covering principally non-union employees. The Company and certain subsidiaries also sponsor plans that provide for medical benefits and life insurance coverage to eligible retirees.
	Pension Plan Asset Management
	Six investment firms manage the Company’s defined benefit pension plans’ assets under investment guidelines approved by a pension fund investment committee. Investments are allocated among domestic fixed income investments, and domestic and international equity investments. Limitations restrict investment concentration and use of certain derivative instruments. Fixed income investments must have an average rating of ‘AA’ or better. Equity investments must be in liquid securities listed on national exchanges. However no direct investment is permitted in the securities of either NSC or CSX. Equity investment managers have specific equity strategies and their returns are expected to exceed selected market indices by prescribed margins.
	The target asset allocation range is for equity allocations to be between 44% and 56% of the fund’s assets with approximately 10% of the assets allocated to international equity investments. The asset allocation on December 31, 2004, was 46% in fixed income investments and 54% in equity investments including 12% in international equities. This compared to 45% fixed income and 55% equity including 13% international equity as of December 31, 2003.
	The plans’ assumed future returns are based principally on the asset allocation and the historic returns for the plans’ asset classes determined from both the actual plan returns and, over longer time periods, the market returns for those asset classes.

Accumulated Benefit Obligation

The accumulated benefit obligation is the actuarial present value of pension benefits based on current or past salary levels. The accumulated benefit obligation for all defined benefit plans was $656 million and $646 million as of December 31, 2004 and 2003, respectively.

The projected benefit obligation, accumulated benefit obligation and fair value of plan assets for the pension plans with accumulated benefit obligations in excess of plan assets are as follows:

The changes do not impact net income but are recognized as adjustments to an intangible asset and accumulated other comprehensive income, net of tax. In 2004, the minimum pension liability decreased $13 million, increasing accumulated other comprehensive income $3 million, net of tax. In 2003, the minimum pension liability decreased $41 million, increasing other comprehensive income $25 million, net of tax. The intangible asset decreased $1 million in both 2004 and 2003.

Actuarial Assumptions

The assumptions used in the measurement of the Company’s benefit obligations and benefit cost for the year ended December 31 are as follows:

							Other Postretirement
	Pension Benefits						Benefits
	2004			2003			2004			2003
Funded Status:
Discount rate		5.75	%		6.25	%		5.75	%		6.25	%
Rate of compensation increase		5.00	%		5.00	%		5.00	%		5.00	%
Benefit Cost:

Rate of compensation increase		5.00	%		5.00	%		5.00	%		5.00	%

A 10% annual rate of increase in the per capita cost of covered health care benefits was assumed for 2004, gradually decreasing to 5% by the year 2010.

Assumed health care cost trend rates affect amounts reported for the health care plans. The effect of a one percentage point increase and (decrease) in the assumed health care cost trend rate on the accumulated postretirement benefit obligation is $1 million and $(1) million, respectively.

Savings Plans

The Company and certain subsidiaries provide 401(k) savings plans for union and non-union employees. For the non-union savings plan, the Company matches a portion of employee contributions, subject to the applicable limitations. Savings plan expense related to the non-union savings plan was approximately $1 million in each of the years 2004, 2003 and 2002. There is no Company match provision under the union employee plan except for certain unions, which negotiated a Company match as part of their contract provisions.

Incentive Compensation Plans

The Company has an incentive compensation plan for all non-union employees in which employees receive targeted cash awards upon attainment of certain performance criteria established by the Company’s Board of Directors. Compensation expense under this plan was approximately $3 million in each of the years 2004, 2003 and 2002.

The Company also has a long-term incentive plan under which phantom stock options are granted to officers and other key non-union employees. The option price for the phantom shares is equal to the

	blended fair market value of NSC and CSX common stock at the date of grant. Options will vest one year after grant date and the option term may not exceed ten years. Upon exercise, eligible participants will receive cash payments equal to the appreciation on the composite NSC and CSX common stock fair values. Compensation expense for this plan was $6 million in 2004, $2 million in 2003 and less than $1 million in 2002.
	Change in Control payments
	The Company has a long-term liability in connection with employment “change in control” agreements with certain former executives, which became operative as a result of the joint acquisition of Conrail. Payments were $1 million in 2004, $4 million in 2003 and $1 million in 2002 and were made primarily from the Company’s pension plan. The remaining amount, approximately $25 million at December 31, 2004, will be paid out at the discretion of the participants in the program.
10.	Stockholder’s equity
	Conrail Reorganization

12.	Commitments and Contingencies
	Environmental
	The Company is subject to various federal, state and local laws and regulations regarding environmental matters. Conrail is a party to various proceedings brought by both regulatory agencies and private parties under federal, state and local laws, including Superfund laws, and has also received inquiries from governmental agencies with respect to other potential environmental issues. At December 31, 2004, Conrail has received, together with other companies, notices of its involvement as a potentially responsible party or requests for information under the Superfund laws with respect to cleanup and/or removal costs due to its status as an alleged transporter, generator or property owner at 27 locations. Due to the number of parties involved at many of these sites, the wide range of costs of possible remediation alternatives, the changing technology and the length of time over which these matters develop, it is often not possible to estimate Conrail’s liability for the costs associated with the assessment and remediation of contaminated sites.
	At December 31, 2004 and 2003, the Company had accrued $57 million and $61 million respectively, related to future environmental costs at Superfund sites and other sites based on known information and using

	various estimating techniques. The Company anticipates that much of this liability will be paid out over five years; however some costs will be paid out over a longer period. The Company believes the ultimate liability for these matters will not materially affect its consolidated financial condition.
	The Company spent $6 million in 2004, $5 million in 2003 and $6 million in 2002 for environmental remediation and related costs.
	Casualty
	The Company is involved in various legal actions, principally relating to occupational health claims, personal injuries, casualties and property damage. The casualty claim liability is determined using the aid of an independent actuarial firm based upon claims filed and an estimate of claims incurred but not yet reported. The Company is generally self-insured for casualty claims. Claims in excess of self-insurance levels are insured up to excess coverage limits. While the ultimate amounts of claims incurred are dependent upon future developments, in management’s opinion, the recorded liability is adequate to cover expected probable payments.
	Expense recognized for casualty claims is reported in the “Casualties and insurance” line item of the income statement and includes actuarial determined gains of $2 million and $16 million in 2004 and 2002 respectively, and an actuarial determined loss of $1 million in 2003.
	Labor
	CRC had 1,309 employees at December 31, 2004; approximately 89% of whom are represented by 12 different labor organizations and are covered by 16 separate collective bargaining agreements. These agreements remain in effect until changed pursuant to the Railway Labor Act. The Company was engaged in collective bargaining at December 31, 2004 with labor organizations representing approximately 3% of its labor force.
	Guarantees
	The Company is contingently liable as guarantor with respect to $1 million of indebtedness for a third party company, Triple Crown Services. No liability has been recorded related to this guaranty.
	Also the Company is contingently liable under indemnification provisions related to the sale of tax benefits. This liability is recorded in the “Other liability” line item of the balance sheet and totaled $1 million at both December 31, 2004 and December 31, 2003.
13.	Fair Values of Financial Instruments
	The fair values of “Cash and cash equivalents,” “Accounts receivable,” and “Accounts payable” approximate the carrying values of these financial instruments at December 31, 2004 and 2003.
	Using current market prices when available, or a valuation based on the yield to maturity of comparable debt instruments having similar characteristics, credit rating and maturity, the total fair value of the Company’s long-term debt, including the current portion, but excluding capital leases, is $222 million and $217 million at December 31, 2004 and 2003, respectively, compared with carrying values of $198 million and $189 million at December 31, 2004 and 2003.
