VRE has a contract with Sumitomo for Nippon-Sharyo gallery style railcars. There is an option for 21 more railcars on this contract that expires in February 2017. VRE cannot
exercise this option for the additional 21 railcars because we do not have funding for the railcars nor the space to store the additional cars. Metra, the commuter rail system serving
the Chicago area, uses the same type of Nippon-Sharyo railcars as VRE. They approached VRE about purchasing railcars from our contract with Sumitomo for the Nippon-Sharyo
railcars.
