(OTCPK: XTRN), dba United Rail Inc., owner of the X Train brand and brand licensor, today announced that it has filed a Reg A with the SEC for a fixed price offering of $5 million. “We have filed this offering with the SEC in order to provide sufficient capital to acquire several short line railroad targets that the Company has identified.  Our plan is to consolidate the smaller and sometimes overlooked short lines and passenger excursions and consolidate them under the United Rail Inc. banner,” said Michael Barron, CEO of United Rail Inc. Mr. Barron continued, “With the inclusion of United Short Line Insurance Services (USIS) under the United Rail Inc. umbrella, we now have a pathway to effectively reach those small railroad companies who wish to sell.” Lou Schillinger, President of USIS and the new President of United Rail Inc. added, “Our insurance products are tailored to the short line railroad industry and many of the smaller companies in this space are already clients of USIS.  This will give us a leg up on contacting and closing these rail properties and afford the sellers a path to liquidity. We are very pleased to be part of the exciting program United Rail Inc. has planned.” About Las Vegas Railway Express Las Vegas railway Express, Inc. is in the business of acquiring short line railroads in both the passenger operations sector as well as freight operations.
