Certain key selected financial information included in Income (loss) from discontinued operations, net of tax for the former Harsco Rail Segment is as follows:


	Three Months Ended				Six Months Ended

(In thousands)	2022		2021		2022		2021
Amounts directly attributable to the former Harsco Rail Segment:
Service revenues	$	7,488	$	7,081	$	14,198	$	17,190
Product revenues (a)	64,396		94,065		109,392		165,546

Additional amounts allocated to the former Harsco Rail Segment:
Selling, general and administrative expenses (b)	$	1,862	$	—	$	3,511	$	—

(a) The decrease in product revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2022 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2021 is due to liquidated damages and penalties on certain long-term contracts, as discussed below.

(b) The Company has allocated directly attributable transaction costs to discontinued operations.

The Company has retained corporate overhead expenses previously allocated to the former Harsco Rail Segment of $1.1 million and $2.1 million for each of the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, and 2021, respectively, as part of Selling, general and administrative expenses on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

The Company's former Harsco Rail Segment is currently manufacturing highly-engineered equipment under large long-term fixed-price contracts with SBB, Network Rail, and Deutsche Bahn. As disclosed previously, in the fourth quarter of 2021, the Company recognized an estimated forward loss provision of $33.4 million related to these contracts. In the first quarter of 2022, the Company encountered continued supply chain related delays and additional costs in the build of the machines.

For the Network Rail contracts, the Company encountered additional supply chain delays in the build of the initial machine, and there were further changes to the production schedule based on the manufacturing experience gained from assembling the first unit during the quarter which had a cascading effect on the delivery schedule of remaining machines. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company recorded forward loss provisions of $0.3 million and $24.5 million, respectively, principally for additional estimated contractual liquidated damages. The Company continues to negotiate with Network Rail regarding a reduction to these liquidated damages, which could result in additional favorable or unfavorable adjustments in future periods.

For the Deutsche Bahn contract, on March 8, 2022 a European-based supplier of critical components to the project indicated it would be significantly late on the delivery of these components to the project, which has the impact of delaying the overall delivery schedule for the project. As a result, the Company recorded an additional $7.4 million estimated forward loss provision during the first quarter of 2022 due principally to the estimated contractual penalties that would be triggered by this delay. Additionally, this supplier filed for bankruptcy during the second quarter of 2022, although it continues to operate. Should this supplier cease operations, the Company many incur further losses if there are additional costs to change suppliers, an inability to recover the value of prepayments made to the supplier, as well as additional penalties and damages under the contract with Deutsche Bahn in the event of further production delays.

For the second SBB contract, the Company recorded an additional $3.5 million forward estimated loss provision during the first quarter of 2022 due to additional supply chain delays and cost overruns.

The estimated forward loss provisions represent the Company's best estimate based on currently available information. It is possible that the Company's overall estimate of liquidated damages, penalties and costs to complete these contracts may change, which would result in an additional estimated forward loss provision at such time.

The first contract with SBB is complete, and the second contract is 81% complete as of June 30, 2022. The contracts with Network Rail and Deutsche Bahn are 48% and 26% complete, respectively, as of June 30, 2022.
