Registration Statement on Form&nbsp;10 dated September&nbsp;6, 2002, and incorporated by
reference into this Registration Statement, were audited by Registrant&#146;s former
independent auditors, Arthur Andersen LLP, as indicated in their report with
respect thereto dated January&nbsp;25, 2002 (the &#147;Audit Report&#148;), and are included
in reliance upon the authority of said firm as experts in accounting and
auditing. The Registrant would ordinarily be required to obtain the consent of
Arthur Andersen LLP to the incorporation into this Registration Statement of
the Audit Report. After reasonable efforts, the Registrant has been unable to
obtain Arthur Andersen LLP&#146;s consent to the incorporation by reference into
this Registration Statement. Under these circumstances, Rule&nbsp;437a of the
Securities Act of 1933 permits the Registrant to file this Registration
Statement without a written consent from Arthur Andersen LLP. Because Arthur
Andersen LLP has not consented to the incorporation by reference of their
report into this Registration Statement, investors may not be able to recover
against Arthur Andersen LLP under Section&nbsp;11(a) of the Securities Act of 1933,
as amended.

prepared or certified any part of the registration statement, or as having
prepared or certified any report or valuation that is used in connection with
the registration statement, with respect to the statement in such registration
statement, report or valuation that purports to have been prepared or certified
by the accountant. This Registration Statement on Form&nbsp;S-8 incorporates
certain filings of the Registrant that include financial statements certified
by Arthur Andersen LLP. Because the Registrant is unable to obtain Arthur
Andersen LLP&#146;s written consent to the incorporation by reference of their
report on such financial statements, Arthur Andersen LLP does not become
subject to liability under Section&nbsp;11(a), as discussed above. Consequently,
investors would be unable to sue Arthur Andersen LLP under Section&nbsp;11(a) in
connection with the purchase or sale of securities. In addition, other persons
who are subject to liability under Section&nbsp;11, including the Registrant&#146;s
officers and directors, may still rely on Arthur Andersen LLP&#146;s Audit Report as
being made by an expert for purposes of establishing a due diligence defense

<P><FONT size="2">The SCS Transportation certificate of incorporation provides that, as

a director will not be personally liable to the Registrant or the shareholders
for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director, except for
liability imposed by law, as in effect from time to time (1)&nbsp;for any breach of
the director&#146;s duty of loyalty to the Registrant or the shareholders, (2)&nbsp;for
acts or omissions not in good faith or which involved intentional misconduct or
a knowing violation of law, (3)&nbsp;for unlawful payments of dividends or unlawful
stock repurchases or redemptions as provided in Section&nbsp;174 of the DGCL, or (4)
for any transaction from which the director derived an improper personal
benefit.

<P><FONT size="2">Section&nbsp;145 of the DGCL provides that a Delaware corporation may indemnify any
persons who were, are or are threatened to be made, parties to any threatened,
pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal,
administrative or investigative, other than a &#147;derivative&#148; action by or in the
right of the corporation, by reason of the fact that the person is or was a
director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation or enterprise. The
indemnity may include expenses (including attorneys&#146; fees), judgments, fines
and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by the person
in connection with the action, suit or proceeding, provided the person acted in
good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to
the corporation&#146;s best interests and, with respect to any criminal action or
proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe that his conduct was unlawful.
A similar standard of care is applicable in the case of derivative actions,
except that no indemnification shall be made where the person is adjudged to be
liable to the corporation unless and only to the extent that the Court of
Chancery of the State of Delaware or the court in which such action was brought
determines that the person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity and
expenses. Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation and by-laws
provide that we will indemnify our directors, officers, employees and agents to
the fullest extent permitted by the DGCL, and we will advance expenses to our
directors, officers, employees and agents in connection with legal proceedings,
subject to limited exceptions. We have and will retain customary insurance
policies under which coverage is provided for payments made by us to our
directors and officers in respect of the indemnification provisions in our
amended and restated certificate of incorporation and by-laws.
</FONT>
<P><FONT size="2">Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of
1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the
Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Registrant
has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission
such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is,
therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against
such liabilities (other than the payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred
or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the Registrant in the
successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such
director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being
registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the
matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of
appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is
against public policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final
adjudication of such issue.

Item 1. PLAN INFORMATION
Not required to be filed.
Item 2. REGISTRANT INFORMATION AND EMPLOYEE PLAN INFORMATION
Not required to be filed.
Part II
INFORMATION REQUIRED IN THE REGISTRATION STATEMENT
Item 3. INCORPORATION OF CERTAIN DOCUMENTS BY REFERENCE
The following documents, which the Registrant previously filed with the
Commission under Section 13 or 15 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended (the "Exchange Act"), are incorporated by reference into this
prospectus:
Registrant's SEC Filings (File No. 0-49983)
1.
Registration Statement on Form 10 (filed September 6, 2002)
2.
Information Statement filed as Exhibit 99.1 to the Registrant's Registration Statement on Form
10 (filed September 6, 2002)
3.
The description of the Registrant's Common Stock ("Common Stock") set forth under the heading
"Common Stock and Preferred Stock" in Exhibit 99.1 (Information Statement) to the Registrant's
Registration Statement on Form 10 (filed September 6, 2002)
4.
Annual Report on Form 10-K (filed March 14, 2003) for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2002
5.
Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (filed April 30, 2003) for the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2003
6.
Current Report on Form 8-K, as amended and updated, filed April 24, 2003
Finally, the Registrant incorporates by reference in this Registration
Statement all documents that it may file under Sections 13(a), 13(c), 14 or
15(d) of the Exchange Act after the date of this Prospectus and before the
filing of a post-effective amendment (which indicates that all securities
offered have been sold or which deregisters all securities then remaining
unsold). Those documents are a part of this Prospectus from the date of their
filing and later information the Registrant files with the Commission will
automatically update and supersede this information.
The audited consolidated financial statements including the Registrant's
Balance Sheets as of December 31, 2001 and 2000; Statements of Income for years
ending December 31, 2001, 2000, and 1999; Statements of Parent Company Equity
for the years ending December 31, 2001, 2000, and 1999; and Statements of Cash
Flows for the years ending December 31, 2001, 2000, and 1999 (the "Audited
Financial Statements") of the Registrant included in the Registrant's
Registration Statement on Form 10 dated September 6, 2002, and incorporated by
reference into this Registration Statement, were audited by Registrant's former
independent auditors, Arthur Andersen LLP, as indicated in their report with
respect thereto dated January 25, 2002 (the "Audit Report"), and are included
in reliance upon the authority of said firm as experts in accounting and
auditing. The Registrant would ordinarily be required to obtain the consent of
Arthur Andersen LLP to the incorporation into this Registration Statement of
the Audit Report. After reasonable efforts, the Registrant has been unable to
obtain Arthur Andersen LLP's consent to the incorporation by reference into
this Registration Statement. Under these circumstances, Rule 437a of the
Securities Act of 1933 permits the Registrant to file this Registration
Statement without a written consent from Arthur Andersen LLP. Because Arthur
Andersen LLP has not consented to the incorporation by reference of their
report into this Registration Statement, investors may not be able to recover
against Arthur Andersen LLP under Section 11(a) of the Securities Act of 1933,
as amended.
Section 11(a) provides that if any part of a registration statement, at the
time such registration statement becomes effective, contains any untrue
statement of a material fact or omits to state a material fact required to be
stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, any
person acquiring a security pursuant to such
Table of Contents
registration statement (unless such person knows of such untruth or omission)
may sue, among others, every accountant who has consented to be named as having
prepared or certified any part of the registration statement, or as having
prepared or certified any report or valuation that is used in connection with
the registration statement, with respect to the statement in such registration
statement, report or valuation that purports to have been prepared or certified
by the accountant. This Registration Statement on Form S-8 incorporates
certain filings of the Registrant that include financial statements certified
by Arthur Andersen LLP. Because the Registrant is unable to obtain Arthur
Andersen LLP's written consent to the incorporation by reference of their
report on such financial statements, Arthur Andersen LLP does not become
subject to liability under Section 11(a), as discussed above. Consequently,
investors would be unable to sue Arthur Andersen LLP under Section 11(a) in
connection with the purchase or sale of securities. In addition, other persons
who are subject to liability under Section 11, including the Registrant's
officers and directors, may still rely on Arthur Andersen LLP's Audit Report as
being made by an expert for purposes of establishing a due diligence defense
under Section 11(b) of the Securities Act.
Item 4. DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES
The class of securities to be offered is registered under Section 12 of
the Exchange Act. Therefore, a description of the Common Stock required by
Item 202 of Regulation S-K is not required.
Item 5. INTERESTS OF NAMED EXPERTS AND COUNSEL
None.
Item 6. INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS
The SCS Transportation certificate of incorporation provides that, as
authorized by Section 102(b)(7) of the Delaware General Corporation Law (DGCL),
a director will not be personally liable to the Registrant or the shareholders
for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director, except for
liability imposed by law, as in effect from time to time (1) for any breach of
the director's duty of loyalty to the Registrant or the shareholders, (2) for
acts or omissions not in good faith or which involved intentional misconduct or
a knowing violation of law, (3) for unlawful payments of dividends or unlawful
stock repurchases or redemptions as provided in Section 174 of the DGCL, or (4)
for any transaction from which the director derived an improper personal
benefit.
Section 145 of the DGCL provides that a Delaware corporation may indemnify any
persons who were, are or are threatened to be made, parties to any threatened,
pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal,
administrative or investigative, other than a "derivative" action by or in the
right of the corporation, by reason of the fact that the person is or was a
director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation or enterprise. The
indemnity may include expenses (including attorneys' fees), judgments, fines
and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by the person
in connection with the action, suit or proceeding, provided the person acted in
good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to
the corporation's best interests and, with respect to any criminal action or
proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe that his conduct was unlawful.
A similar standard of care is applicable in the case of derivative actions,
except that no indemnification shall be made where the person is adjudged to be
liable to the corporation unless and only to the extent that the Court of
Chancery of the State of Delaware or the court in which such action was brought
determines that the person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity and
expenses. Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation and by-laws
provide that we will indemnify our directors, officers, employees and agents to
the fullest extent permitted by the DGCL, and we will advance expenses to our
directors, officers, employees and agents in connection with legal proceedings,
subject to limited exceptions. We have and will retain customary insurance
policies under which coverage is provided for payments made by us to our
directors and officers in respect of the indemnification provisions in our
amended and restated certificate of incorporation and by-laws.
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of
1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the
Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Registrant
has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission
such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is,
therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against
such liabilities (other than the payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred
or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the Registrant in the
successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such
director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being
registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the
matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of
appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is
against public policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final
adjudication of such issue.

Item 9. UNDERTAKINGS
The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes:
(a)(1)
To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a
post-effective amendment to this Registration Statement:
(i)
to include any Prospectus required by section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act;
(ii)
to reflect in the Prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective
date of the Registration Statement (or the most recent post-effective
amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a
fundamental change in the information set forth in the Registration
Statement; notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume
of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would
not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high
end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of
prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) (§ 230.424(b)
of this chapter) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price
represent no more than 20% change in the maximum aggregate offering price
set forth in the "Calculation of Registration Fee" table in the effective
registration statement; and/or
(iii)
to include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution
not previously disclosed in the Registration Statement or any material
change to such information in the Registration Statement.
Provided, however,
that paragraphs (a)(1) (i) and (a)(1) (ii) do not apply
if the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by
those paragraphs is contained in periodic reports filed by the Registrant
pursuant to section 13 or section 15(d) of the Exchange Act that are
incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement.
Table of Contents
(2)  That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the
Securities Act, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new
Registration Statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the
offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona
fide offering thereof.
(3)  To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any
of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of
the offering.
(b)  The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of
determining any liability under the Securities Act, each filing of the
Registrant's annual report pursuant to section 13 (a) or section 15(d) of the
Exchange Act that is incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement
shall be deemed to be a new Registration Statement relating to the securities
offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be
deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
(c)  The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes to deliver or cause to be
delivered with the Prospectus, to each person to whom the Prospectus is sent or
given, the latest annual report to security holders that is incorporated by
reference in the Prospectus and furnished pursuant to and meeting the
requirements of Rule 14a-3 or Rule 14c-3 under the Exchange Act; and, where
interim financial information required to be presented by Article 3 of
Regulation S-X is not set forth in the Prospectus, to deliver, or cause to be
delivered to each person to whom the Prospectus is sent or given, the latest
quarterly report that is specifically incorporated by reference in the
Prospectus to provide such interim financial information.
