                                                       April 13, 1982

     To the Board of Directors
     United States Railway Association


          The accompanying statement of financial position of United
     States Railway Association (Association) as of September 30, 1981,
     and the related statements of operations and changes in financial
     position for the year then ended have been compiled by us.

          A compilation is limited to presenting in the form of finan-
     cial statements information that is the representation of manage-
     ment. We have not audited or reviewed the accompanying financial
     statements and, accordingly, do not express an opinion or any other
     form of assurance on them.

          As discussed in the Association's financial statements under
     note 2 to the statements, Consolidated Rail Corporation (Conrail)
     securities are valued at cost, which equals their redemption value.
     As described in notes 4, 5, and.6 to the statements, current con-
     ditions arising from the provisions of the Northeast Rail Service
     Act of 1981 created uncertainties regarding the Association's in-
     terest in Conrail. Pursuant to these provisions, the Association's
     interest in the investments in Conrail as well as the loans re-
     ceivable from the Delaware and Hudson Railway Company is limited
     to an interest which attaches to such debt in the event of bank-
     ruptcy, substantial sale, or liquidation of the assets of these
     railroads. In addition, notes and loans receivable from Conrail
     and the bankrupt estates plus the accrued interest receivable on
     these notes and loans, as shown in notes to the statement, are
     subject to legal settlements of reorganization plans of the bank-
     rupt estates.

          We are not independent with respect to the Association since
     the Comptroller General is an active member of its Board of Direc-
     tors.
