Notes to financial statements:

     (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.

                               FORM 10-Q

Notes to financial statements: (Continued)


     (3) Under the terms of the lease, Norfolk Southern Corporation
     leased all of Pittsburgh & West Virginia Railroad's real
     properties, including its railroad lines,for a term of 99 years,
     renewable by the lessee upon the same terms for additional 99-
     year terms in perpetuity. The lease provides for a cash rental of
     $915,000 per annum. The rentals receivable, recognizing rental
     options to perpetuity, were estimated to have a present value of
     $9,150,000 assuming an implicit interest rate of 10% at January 1,
     1983.

Item 2. MANAGEMENTS' DISCUSSION AND 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. Because
this non-cash income will not be settled until the expiration of the
lease, no values have been reported in the accompanying interim
financial statements for the balance of the account or the transactions
affecting the balance.

          With fixed revenue and comparable expenses, net income was the
same as the second quarter 2003. In comparing the second quarter of 2004
with the preceding first quarter 2004 and the second quarter of 2003,
revenues totaled $229,000, $229,000 and $229,000, respectively. Net
income and income available for distribution was $187,000, $194,000 and
$187,000, respectively.

Item 4.CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

     Within 90 days prior to the date of this report, the Registrant
carried out an evaluation under the supervision and with the
participation of the Registrant's management, including the Chief
Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness
of the design and operation of the disclosure controls and procedures
pursuant to Rule 13a-14 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended. Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and the
Chief Financial Officer have concluded that Registrant's disclosure
controls and procedures are adequate and effective in timely alerting
them to material information relating to the Registrant required to be
included in the Registrant's periodic filing with the SEC.

                                   5

Item 4 CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES (Continued)

     There have been no significant changes in the Registrant's internal
controls or in other factors that could significantly affect internal
controls subsequent to the date the Registrant carried out its
evaluation.
