  As previously disclosed in Genesee & Wyoming Inc.'s ("GWI") Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006, GWI's Mexican subsidiaries, GW Servicios S.A. ("Servicios") and Compania de Ferrocarriles Chiapas-Mayab, S.A. de C.V. ("FCCM") are parties to certain amended loan agreements and promissory notes (collectively, the "Loan Agreements") and related documents, and GWI is a party to certain related documents with the International Finance Corporation ("IFC") and Nederlandse Financierings-Maatschappij voor Ontwikkelingslanden N.V. ("FMO"). The Loan Agreements and related documents set forth the terms of Servicios' existing loans from the IFC and FMO, as well as GWI's support obligations related to Servicios' obligations under the Loan Agreements. Servicios&#x2019; obligations under the Loan Agreements are secured by essentially all of the assets of Servicios and FCCM, and a pledge of the Servicios and FCCM shares held by GWI.<br><br>Pursuant to the guarantee related to the Loan Agreements, GWI has guaranteed Servicios' debt payment obligations under the Loan Agreements.  As previously disclosed, as a result of damage from Hurricane Stan in October of 2005 and the resulting revenue and cash flow shortfalls, among other factors, on September 15, 2006, Servicios was unable to fund its principal and interest payment of $1.9 million due under the Loan Agreements.  In November 2006, GWI made this payment on Servicios' behalf under the guarantee arrangement, which in turn reduced GWI's guarantee from a maximum of $8.9 million to $7.0 million.  On March 15, 2007, once again Servicios was unable to fund its U.S. dollar denominated principal and interest payment of $1.9 million due under the Loan Agreements, and GWI has decided not to make this payment on Servicios&#x2019; behalf. As of March 20, 2007, the failure to make this $1.9 million payment became an event of default under the Loan Agreements. As a result, it is possible that the IFC and FMO may accelerate the outstanding debt and commence actions to (i) collect on the entire outstanding balance under the Loan Agreements (approximately $13.9 million, which includes current interest due), or (ii) exercise their rights to the collateral pledged under the Loan Agreements, including FCCM&#x2019;s rolling stock and GWI&#x2019;s shares in FCCM. If the IFC and FMO accelerate the outstanding debt, they may demand immediate payment of $7.0 million from GWI pursuant to the guarantee. <br><br>Neither this payment default, nor any action taken by the IFC and FMO to collect under the Loan Agreements, including an acceleration of outstanding debt or an attempt to foreclose on the collateral, would result in a default under GWI's outstanding debt obligations.<br><br>For additional information regarding the Loan Agreements, the related agreements and a more complete discussion of GWI's Mexican operations, please see Item 2. Managements' Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations and Item 1A. Risk Factors of GWI&#x2019;s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006. <br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br>

  Item 8.01 Other Events.
  As previously disclosed in Genesee & Wyoming Inc.'s ("GWI") Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006, GWI's Mexican subsidiaries, GW Servicios S.A. ("Servicios") and Compania de Ferrocarriles Chiapas-Mayab, S.A. de C.V. ("FCCM") are parties to certain amended loan agreements and promissory notes (collectively, the "Loan Agreements") and related documents, and GWI is a party to certain related documents with the International Finance Corporation ("IFC") and Nederlandse Financierings-Maatschappij voor Ontwikkelingslanden N.V. ("FMO"). The Loan Agreements and related documents set forth the terms of Servicios' existing loans from the IFC and FMO, as well as GWI's support obligations related to Servicios' obligations under the Loan Agreements. Servicios' obligations under the Loan Agreements are secured by essentially all of the assets of Servicios and FCCM, and a pledge of the Servicios and FCCM shares held by GWI.
  Pursuant to the guarantee related to the Loan Agreements, GWI has guaranteed Servicios' debt payment obligations under the Loan Agreements.  As previously disclosed, as a result of damage from Hurricane Stan in October of 2005 and the resulting revenue and cash flow shortfalls, among other factors, on September 15, 2006, Servicios was unable to fund its principal and interest payment of $1.9 million due under the Loan Agreements.  In November 2006, GWI made this payment on Servicios' behalf under the guarantee arrangement, which in turn reduced GWI's guarantee from a maximum of $8.9 million to $7.0 million.  On March 15, 2007, once again Servicios was unable to fund its U.S. dollar denominated principal and interest payment of $1.9 million due under the Loan Agreements, and GWI has decided not to make this payment on Servicios' behalf. As of March 20, 2007, the failure to make this $1.9 million payment became an event of default under the Loan Agreements. As a result, it is possible that the IFC and FMO may accelerate the outstanding debt and commence actions to (i) collect on the entire outstanding balance under the Loan Agreements (approximately $13.9 million, which includes current interest due), or (ii) exercise their rights to the collateral pledged under the Loan Agreements, including FCCM's rolling stock and GWI's shares in FCCM. If the IFC and FMO accelerate the outstanding debt, they may demand immediate payment of $7.0 million from GWI pursuant to the guarantee.
  Neither this payment default, nor any action taken by the IFC and FMO to collect under the Loan Agreements, including an acceleration of outstanding debt or an attempt to foreclose on the collateral, would result in a default under GWI's outstanding debt obligations.
  For additional information regarding the Loan Agreements, the related agreements and a more complete discussion of GWI's Mexican operations, please see Item 2. Managements' Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations and Item 1A. Risk Factors of GWI's Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006.
  Forward-Looking Statements
  Certain statements in this report that discuss GWI's expectations are forward-looking statements within the meaning of the federal securities laws and are based upon GWI's current belief as to the outcome of future events. Although GWI believes that the expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements are based upon reasonable assumptions, actual results could differ materially from those set forth in the forward-looking statements. GWI cautions investors and potential investors not to place undue reliance on such statements and disclaims any intention to update the current expectations or forward-looking statements contained in this filing.
