Item 2.05 Costs Associated With Exit or Disposal Activities.

On June 22, 2006 the Company completed the sale of its specialty trackwork facility in Alorton, Illinois for $1.75 million, subject to certain working capital adjustments. The plant was sold based on a strategic evaluation of the marketplace and the Company’s business strategy with respect to its core businesses. The sale is expected to result in a non-cash pre-tax loss of $1.5-$2.0 million in the second quarter of 2006. The terms of the asset purchase agreement provide for the Company’s retention of trade receivables and payables, with all other assets and liabilities transferred to the buyer. The Alorton facility generated approximately $8.1 million of revenue in 2005.
