LAS VEGAS RAILWAY EXPRESS, INC.

PART I

Item 1.  Business
 
Las Vegas Railway Express, Inc. (the "Company", "we", "us", or "our"), formerly known as Liberty Capital Asset Management, Inc., acquired 100% of the issued and outstanding stock of Las Vegas Railway Express, a Nevada corporation on January 21, 2010.  In connection with the acquisition, the Company changed its name to Las Vegas Railway Express, Inc. and changed its business plan to one of developing passenger rail transportation and ancillary ticketing and reservation services between the Los Angeles area and Las Vegas, Nevada. In November 2012, the Company executed an agreement with Union Pacific Railroad which allowed the Company to operate its passenger service on their property from Daggett, California to Las Vegas, a distance of 175.8 miles.  In May 2013, the Company and Amtrak, which was planning to haul the Company's rail cars from Los Angeles to Las Vegas in regular service, was informed by BNSF Railway ("BNSF") that it would not approve Amtrak's request to operate on the BNSF system. Although the Company tried several alternative approaches to satisfy BNSF's denial, none were accepted and both Amtrak and the Company were forced to suspend their efforts to establish the planned service over the Cajon Pass route.
 
During the development period for the Los Angeles to Las Vegas route, the Company became visible in the press and several independently owned passenger rail companies discussed how the Company's Club X style railcars could be deployed on existing excursion lines. The Company began to focus its infrastructure towards acquiring independently owned passenger rail operations throughout the United States and providing upscale commuter Club X railcars for various state Department of Transportation municipal transportation agencies.

Company Overview

Our company, Las Vegas Railway Express, Inc., is establishing a new and innovative passenger train service between Las Vegas and the Los Angeles metropolitan area by hiring Amtrak to haul our passenger cars for a fee, between Los Angeles and Las Vegas. The proposed service, called the "X-Train," will introduce a "Las Vegas" style experience on the train, while traversing the route in approximately 5 ½ hours. We will be profitable on the very first run based on our pricing model.

We plan to offer our train service as a tour package in much the same way as cruise lines work with a package of train ticket, hotel, transfers and complimentary first cocktail on board. F&B offerings are not included. Customers can book their tour package with any one of several major hotels in Las Vegas via the X Train website www.vegasxtrain.com or via www.xtrainvacations.com.  X Train handles all the bookings and our choice hotels are MGM Resorts, The Wynn Resort, Caesars Resort, The Plaza Hotel and Mandalay Resorts. X Train captures 100% of the hotel bookings for which it receives a commission.

Our business plan emanates from a regional transportation feasibility study published in 2007, which suggested that a well-run rail service between Los Angeles and Las Vegas could garner up to 30% of the approximately 12 million passengers who regularly drive between these two metropolitan areas. See: www.rtcsouthernnevada.com.

Over the last 18 months, we have been engaged in activities designed to secure the necessary rights, equipment and facilities required to commence commercial service in the fall of 2015. These include: hiring Amtrak to provide regularly scheduled excursion charter services on the LA to Las Vegas route, purchasing or leasing appropriate locomotive and passenger cars designed to move passengers over the route in comfort; and securing leases on terminal facilities and passenger depots in Los Angeles and in Las Vegas.

We are assisted in this project by North Star Rail, LLC, which owns the rail set of passenger cars we plan to lease. We have an agreement with them to manage for us the charter process with Amtrak as well as leasing their rail car consist to run on our planned route.

The Company has retained the law firm of Sichenzia Ross Friedman LLP 61 Broadway, New York, New York as securities counsel.

The Company's common stock is currently quoted on the PINK under the symbol "XTRN". The company website is www.vegasxtrain.com. The contents of this website are not incorporated into this Memorandum.

The Company maintains offices at 9480 South Eastern Avenue, Suite 205, Las Vegas, Nevada 89123.

Our Competitive Strengths

We have developed a business model that focuses on leisure travelers between Los Angeles and Las Vegas.  We believe the following strengths will allow us to maintain a competitive advantage in the market we serve:

Large Untapped Market of 12 Million Drivers.  There has been no regular passenger rail service between the Los Angeles and Las Vegas areas for over 18 years. The only major highway between Los Angeles and Las Vegas is Interstate 15 ("I-15"). Of the more than 12,000,000 annual visitors from the Southern California/Los Angeles market, 94% use automobile transportation to Las Vegas via this corridor every year. We only need to capture 28,000 of these drivers (approximately 0.025 % of the total marketplace) to meet our plan on an operating basis.  As the LA population grows, so will the traffic on this highway; the forecast for traffic on I-15 is expected to be 17 million passengers by 2030. Congestion on I-15 is increasing, with motor vehicle travelers experiencing substantial delays during peak travel times (e.g., generally over 6 hours of drive time on Friday and Sunday afternoons). With increasing gasoline costs, increasingly restrictive highway capacity, and reduced air travel from LA to Las Vegas, a rail transportation product - with both First Class and Coach – should be an attractive and viable alternative. Our trains will offer a service that will set us apart from other travel options by extending our customers' "Las Vegas" experience while en route.
Amtrak Charter Services. Amtrak recently began encouraging the use of its passenger rail services to private companies under an expanded charter services group. Private companies can hire Amtrak to charter a train for them, which will include locomotives, crew, on board services, logistics and scheduling and conductors for a market-based fee. There is no restriction to the routes where Amtrak will charter a train for a private event or service. Amtrak works with the railroads to co-ordinate logistics with the existing freight rail traffic to select available slots for the requested charter to run. Pricing for the X Train route will vary depending on departure location, car consist and on board services. Amtrak will provide us with locomotive engineers, conductors, train servicing, maintenance, and other services associated with the operations of the X-Train. Amtrak offers many charter type services to numerous rail charter companies in the US.
 "Las Vegas Style" Service. The focus of our approach is to create a unique, Vegas class, "must see" mode of travel that not only serves the functional purpose of transporting passengers to Las Vegas, but also integrates seamlessly into the traditional and iconic Las Vegas experience. To accomplish this goal, our award winning team of design professionals and staff has assembled an on-board product reflective of the "Las Vegas" theme, which is comprised of a comfortable, fun, upscale and provocative atmosphere with multiple on-board amenities. Each car will have two "Conductress', who will provide regular table services throughout the duration of each trip. In addition, each train ticket entitles a passenger to an assigned seat with a high-quality meal and an alcoholic beverage.
Our "X-Train" model also includes many premium options to tailor our customers' experiences to their individual preferences. Each passenger car will be served by a bartender who will prepare premium alcoholic beverages not included in the base ticket fare. Snacks and various X-Train merchandising will also be offered for purchase through our free mobile application. Our "Ultra Lounge" cars will have tables that passengers and their travel companions can reserve at an additional charge.
Oversize baggage, access to the on-board Wi-Fi network, and other premium options will also be available for additional ancillary fees. Commissions will be derived through our call centers, our website, and our on-board mobile application, where customers will be presented with the option to book ahead for various Vegas attractions and necessities such as hotels, shows, tours, restaurant reservations, and rental cars.

Low Equipment and Facilities Cost.  All locomotive equipment and maintenance costs are borne by Amtrak under our charter agreement. In a similar fashion, all of the costs of maintenance for the rail car consist of the "261" consist we are leasing, are borne by the owners of that consist, "The Friends of the 261". We are renovating the Amtrak station at the Plaza Hotel to accept train service for 2015.
Experienced Management and Board of Directors.  We have a strong management team and board of directors comprised of both experienced industry professionals and successful entrepreneurs. Our CEO, Michael Barron has been a successful entrepreneur establishing and growing several companies over the past 30 years. Our board of directors is led by Dr. Harry Teng, Head of the School of Rail Engineering at UNLV in Las Vegas and Lou Schillinger, CEO of Short Line Insurance Company, with over 300 industry rail clients insured. Company management has operated passenger service on a railroad with our own Club X cars and staff.


Our Business Strategy
To grow our business and increase our profitability, our strategy will be to provide a first class "Las Vegas" style travel experience at attractive fares together with a more moderate Coach Class for the economical visitor, while keeping our operating costs low and pursuing ways to make our operations more efficient.  We intend to grow by adding additional trains and increasing the number of trips from Los Angeles to Las Vegas, raising our average fare over time, expanding our relationships with premier leisure companies and growing the level of ancillary services provided to our customers.
The following are the key elements of our strategy:
Finalize Resources for Commencement of Service in Late 2015.  We have made a significant capital investment in this business opportunity and are now in the development stage of execution. Our capital investment in Las Vegas Railway Express, Inc. stands now at approximately $12 million and, subject to obtaining needed funding, we plan to invest an additional $2.5 million in 2015 to begin operations of our X-Train service beginning late 2015. The first train set of 10 passenger railcars has been arranged via a third party owner and will be available to run following this offering. We expect to complete station construction and the remaining components of our business plan upon funding.
 
Stimulate Demand Among Higher Budget Customers Who Drive.  We see the Southern California corporate environment as a lucrative one. There are over 50 Fortune 500 companies in California with most having significant employment populations within the two counties of the LA region. With the increasing Las Vegas convention penetration, the Southern California business community alone is diverse enough to provide a sufficient number of higher budget clientele to fill our travel offerings. We plan to undertake an aggressive marketing campaign targeted at the higher budget corporate clientele in the Los Angeles greater area. Additionally, we plan to have partnerships with several of the major Las Vegas casinos in order to jointly market our services. [Company to expand on casino partnerships/agreements]
 
Grow Non-Rail Revenues.  Traditional travel options have included many amenities built into their pricing models. With recent evolutions in the travel industry, the airline sector has begun to unbundle this pricing model to its benefit. In fact, several newer airline companies have eliminated this model in favor of a low priced "à la Carte" pricing model with little traveler resistance.  Traditional, higher fare legacy airlines have adopted parts of this strategy and are implementing them profitably.  Our business plan incorporates a premium all-inclusive pricing formula, yet plans to also benefit from a "à la Carte" pricing model by providing potential upgrades across several services, most noticeably with food and beverage. In addition, we expect to derive a meaningful portion of our revenue from the sale of ancillary items, such as hotel rooms, rental cars, show tickets, nightclub packages and other attractions. Importantly, most of our ancillary revenue will command high margins with low operating costs thus improving our profitability.
 
Build Partnerships with Key Institutions.  We have established relationships with several of the major Las Vegas casinos including the Plaza Hotel, Wynn Resort, Caesars Resorts and MGM Resorts and key institutions throughout Las Vegas.  Additionally, we have developed a co-operative plan with Metrolink. Metrolink operates commuter passenger rail service in the greater Los Angeles metro area and services over 12 million riders annually. Metrolink has 55 local train stations, which share the same right of way and/or connect to the X-Train. By joint venturing a marketing plan with Metrolink, X-Train gains access to its ridership for travel to Las Vegas.

Train Equipment and Service
 
Each of our trains will consist of two locomotives and one railcar set. Each railcar set will consist of ten cars. Trains can be expanded or contracted depending on the planned event/excursion and marketing & sales demand. X Train has contracted with The Friends of the 261, a private family business, which owns a finished rail set of cars suitable for the X Train, planned service. These cars are already certified to run on Amtrak trains and have been in charter service for over 100 charters all over the country. X train has contracted with the "261" team to manage the charter interface with Amtrak as they have greater experience with Amtrak. Their equipment is leased to X Train on a run by run basis and fees differ depending on the route mileage and services required.
Sales and Distribution
We intend to distribute our product primarily through our website, X Train Vacations www.xtrainvacations.com and our call center/customer support group. We will additionally sell through third party distributors such as Expedia, Travelocity, Orbitz and other Internet travel agencies. We will also be able to use certain of the distribution links provided by the Amtrak network and website.
We see the Southern California corporate environment as a lucrative one. There are over 50 Fortune 500 companies in California with most having significant employment populations within the two counties of the LA region. With the increasing Las Vegas convention penetration, the Southern California business community alone is diverse enough to provide a sufficient number of higher budget clientele to fill our travel offerings. We plan to market our services through advertising and promotions in billboards, newspapers, magazines, television and radio, Fun City rack cards, and through targeted public relations and promotional efforts in our target market. We also rely on public relations and word-of-mouth to promote our brand. We intend to run special promotions in coordination with peak periods and events, such as New Year's Eve, Super Bowl Weekend, Final Four Weekend, and Chinese New Year's and when boxing matches or tradeshows are held in Las Vegas.
Our trains are also available to be connected via Metrolink, the commuter passenger rail service in the greater Los Angeles metro area that services over 12 million riders annually. Metrolink has 55 local train stations, which share the same right of way and/or connect to our planned station at Fullerton, California.

The Excursion Tour Product to Las Vegas from Los Angeles
The company is preparing to operate a Los Angeles to Las Vegas "Party Train" concept it calls "Club X" which provides an entertaining and exciting trip by conventional passenger rail, from Los Angeles to Las Vegas. Las Vegas has many events which it hosts during the year and virtually every weekend is scheduled with some sort of convention, show, sports event or holiday party. Our trains are chartered by Las Vegas Railway Express, Inc. for customers who wish to come to these events via rail instead of driving or flying. Our market is the Los Angeles area resident that visits Las Vegas 1-3 times per year and usually drives the 300 miles on the I-15 highway.
X Train packages will generally run for 3 days and 2 nights with amenities included at selected hotel and casino properties. The target customer for the service is in the $60,000 or more per year income bracket, likes gaming, and is between 35 – 60 years old.
Amtrak Charter Services
Upon request, Amtrak provides LVRE with trained engineering crews, to ensure safe and reliable passenger rail operations on our charter route. The Charter service offered by Amtrak is a form request for a private train car movement. Amtrak offers this service for a fee to anyone requesting such a service and where there are rails, regardless of whether or not Amtrak currently has passenger service in the route. Requests are processed and logistics are worked out with the impacted railroads and a schedule is formed to accommodate the requested train movement. Charters may not be rejected and are not regular train service. Each time our train will run, the route logistics must be applied for and the schedule for that run established. Once a schedule is established, LVRE will schedule its ticket sales.
There are many companies in the U.S, which use charter services as a commercial enterprise for passenger rail. Companies such as the Rocky Mountaineer, Friends of the 261 (who manage our charter service interface with Amtrak) Key Holidays Reno Fun Train, Iowa Pacific's City of New Orleans operate under the Amtrak charter and run many trains on their routes each year. Each run requires the logistics to be worked out prior to operation. Charters are not regular commuter service and the LVRE schedules will vary depending on which events we plan to service via the X Train.

Pricing and Revenue Management
Our fare structure is based on the Allegiant Air model which is a standard fare for tickets and all amenities are up sells. Ticket prices for coach are $199 per segment. All food and beverage and ancillary items are extra charges. Hotels and other events packages can be booked via X Train's call center. Margins on hotel rooms are up to 30%.
Ancillary Revenues
In addition to the basic X-Train service offering, our business model also includes many premium options that will serve as sources of ancillary revenue. Each X-Train passenger car will have bartender who will prepare premium alcoholic beverages not included in the base ticket fare. Snacks and various X-Train merchandising will also be offered for purchase through our free mobile application. Our "Ultra Lounge" cars will offer tables that passengers and their travel companions can reserve at an additional charge. Oversize baggage, access to the on-board Wi-Fi network, movies, and other premium options will also be available for additional fees.
We also aim to capture significant revenue as a "one stop" booking agent for our passengers' complete Las Vegas itinerary. In these activities, commissions will be derived through our call centers, our website, and our on-board mobile application, where customers will be allowed the option to book ahead for various Vegas attractions and necessities such as hotels, shows, tours, restaurant reservations, and rental cars.
Depot Locations
Our passenger rail terminals will provide features customarily found at a large airport today: a ticketing/customer service counter and electronic ticket machines; a station agent and employee area (including security); a baggage handling and storage area; a passenger waiting area; restrooms; a café and retail space to provide meals, snacks, and sundries; on-site parking (short- and long-term); a passenger pick-up and drop-off area; and a transit, taxi, resort shuttle pick-up and drop-off area.
Los Angeles Union Station: As the Los Angeles departure and arrival points of our service, Union Station was chosen for a number of reasons, including its proximity to downtown for Las Vegas marketing efforts; its location in the second largest population county in the United States; its links to Los Angeles County via public roads, bus and rail routes; its very affluent and tourism-centric locale; and its connection to Metrolink services where there are over 15,000 daily boardings with easy connection to Union Station passengers.

Las Vegas Station:
Our Las Vegas arrival station will be located within the historic Downtown Las Vegas gaming and resort district bordering the famous Fremont Street Experience. Adjacent to Union Pacific's main track line and Symphony Plaza, our re-modeled station (formally Amtrak's Las Vegas station) was chosen for its location along the Union Pacific Railroad mainline; its parking and local transportation ease of ingress and egress; its 10-minute drive from over 150,000 hotel rooms; its access to ridership views along the famous Las Vegas "Strip"; its strategic alliances with Fremont Street Experience, Downtown Redevelopment Agency and Las Vegas Convention and Visitors Agency; and its low cost proximity to traveling staff accommodations.

Conceptual future station rendering at the Plaza Hotel.


Train Operations
The proposed route of the X-Train is approximately 338 miles beginning at LA Union Station, California and proceeding non-stop to the destination at Las Vegas, Nevada. The railroad rights-of-way (ROW), over which passenger train service could operate between Las Vegas and Los Angeles, include privately and publicly owned segments. The privately held portions are owned either by BNSF Railway (BNSF) or by Union Pacific Railroad (UPRR).
Our charter agreement with Amtrak will give our X-Train the priority status needed to meet our scheduled travel times. In other words, the owners of the track will allow our X-Train to pass slower and longer freight trains by having those freight trains move to the numerous sidings along the route. Further, as an attractive and profitable railroad customer, they will ensure immediate and urgent maintenance of any and all track maintenance and other services that we would rely upon for prompt and safe service.

Proposed Operating Schedule
Our Charter runs to Las Vegas from Los Angeles are planned around weekend events held in Las Vegas.  As such our operating schedule is not fixed and may vary depending on the event we are service, The operating table below is the general operations plan for the train movement of our consist and the placement, layover and operating times we generally expect. Actual results may vary.

Project Development Timeframe
Below is our planned project development timeframe for initiating the service. The chart is an estimate of our development schedule and actual results may vary.

Maintenance Facilities
Amtrak maintains their fleet, and the Friends of the 261 maintain their fleet under our lease agreement with them.
Insurance
Our agreement with Amtrak will provide liability insurance caps. Outside of our agreement, we are required through our conditional agreement with Union Pacific to maintain, during the life of the agreement, liability insurance with a limit of not less than $200 million; as well as other insurance policies we believe are of types customary in the industry and as required by the DOT and in amounts we believe are adequate to protect us against material loss. The policies principally provide coverage for public liability, passenger liability, baggage and cargo liability, property damage, including coverage for loss or damage to our rail equipment and workers' compensation insurance. There is no assurance, however, that the amount of insurance we carry will be sufficient to protect us from material loss.
Employees
We currently have no employees other than our management team. Initially, we anticipate hiring a team of approximately 30 employees to assist in train and depot operations. Each train consist will require approximately 20 employees to operate it and the Las Vegas depot will require approximately 10 employees. Most of our train personnel will be classified as servers / entertainers and will not be covered by any collective bargaining agreements. Our other train operations personnel, including technical operations and maintenance, will be provided through our outsourcing agreement with Amtrak; and our food and beverage personnel will be provided on an outsourced basis.
Growth of Passenger Rail; Environment
There is widespread acknowledgement that improved intercity passenger rail service will help address many major national transport challenges. Among the challenges faced are congested highways and airports, rising fuel costs and energy independence, and climate and environmental concerns.
We are also aware of the urgency passenger rail service has established as evidenced by recent Congressional legislation, including the FY 2008 Appropriation Act, The Rail Safety Improvement Act of 2008 (RSIA), The Passenger Rail Investment and Improvement Act of 2008 (PRIIA), and The American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (ARRA).
Many higher density city pairs have been increasing their use of rail transportation over the last decade. Set forth below is a list of selected top city-pair markets for passenger rail transportation and the traffic in each of the last six years.
12

Here in Las Vegas, the news regarding the prospect of high-speed rail has brought back into the public's consciousness the idea that intercity passenger rail service has returned as a viable alternative to existing modes of transportation. What has not been discussed, and is the strategic aim of our company, LVRE, is the popularization of conventional passenger rail service and the advantages it brings to the community.
In addition, we are confident that we can advance the recent legislative efforts of Congress to improve our nation's transportation infrastructure by assisting in our nation's goal of diverting automobile traffic to intercity passenger rail. Such activities ought to: relieve increasingly congested highways by taking cars off the inter-state highways; demonstrate that there is a profitable market for intercity passenger rail; reduce overall CO2 emissions; eliminate an estimated total of 4.5 million automobiles from I-15 over a five year period; and reduce CO2 emissions on I-15 by an estimated amount of 42 million pounds in year one and 1.1 billion pounds over five years.
Competition
We will have no direct passenger rail service competition. Although there have been two proposed high speed rail alternatives announced, we believe these options will be economically infeasible in today's challenging fiscal environment.
The Xpress West (formerly DesertXpress), which has a private Las Vegas sponsor, is a high-speed rail proposal for service from Las Vegas to Victorville, CA (85 miles from Los Angeles). This project requires an ambitious right-of-way acquisition, as well as $6 billion to construct a new rail system and 7-10 years to complete, if ever funded.
The other proposal is the MagLev, a passenger train utilizing high-speed magnetic levitation technology. The MagLev would travel between Las Vegas and Anaheim, CA (25 miles from Los Angeles). This project, like the Xpress West, requires an ambitious right-of-way acquisition, $15 billion to construct, and 15 years to complete if ever funded.
The Nevada Department of Transportation recently reviewed the proposals for rail service from Los Angeles to Las Vegas and has chosen to support the Las Vegas Railway Express proposed project. www.nvrailplan.com
We will compete indirectly with a variety of transportation modes including automobiles, bus service, limousine service and air transportation. With the exception of automobiles, some portion of which we hope to replace, the other transportation modes are not seen as a material risk to our business strategy.
Safety
Passenger train service is among the safest form of travel in the country. In conjunction with our Class I railroad partners Burlington Northern Santa Fe, Union Pacific Railroad, Metrolink and our haulage partner, AMTRAK our commitment towards a safe method of travel will be paramount. Our ability to remove an estimated 4.5 million cars from I-15 will improve the safety of those traveling because this portion of I-15 is considered among the most dangerous stretches of road in the country.
THE LAS VEGAS / SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA TRANSPORT MARKET
Las Vegas is a world-class leisure destination and one of the most sought after travel destinations within the United States, with its gaming attractions, convention facilities, various shows and entertainment, restaurants, hotels and golf courses. Currently, approximately 12 million people travel from Southern California to Las Vegas per year, 94% of those people do so by ground transportation, and the remaining 6% travel by commercial and private air transport. Las Vegas' global reach extends well beyond its approximately 38.9 million annual visitors, and is reflected in television travel programs, reality and poker shows, movies and celebrity visits that are consistently a part of daily media and pop culture.
13

As a major leisure destination, Las Vegas tracks and reports a myriad of statistics about the profile of its visitors. Set forth below are important, selected market statistics about Southern Californian visitors to Las Vegas from the LVCVA 2011 Southern California Profile:
 17 million annual visitors from Southern California to Las Vegas
 94% of annual visitors to Las Vegas from Los Angeles, travel via ground transportation, 6% via air
 One-way ground travel between the cities can take up to 6 – 7 hours
 53% visit more than once a year
 Stay for an average of 2.9 nights and 3.9 days
 23% earn between $60,000 and $80,000 annually
 49% earn more than $80,000
 24% travel with more than 2 people in their party
 Spend an average of $371 gambling with 11% spending $600 or more
When compared with other major resort markets in the United States, the Las Vegas market has shown consistent growth over both the near and long terms in both visitation and expenditures. We believe that recent growth in the Las Vegas market has been enhanced by the introduction of large luxury and thematic destination resorts and the increased capacity to host large-scale trade shows and conventions.

The Regional Transportation Commission ("RTC") of Southern Nevada completed a transportation study and feasibility plan, which analyzed the possibility of a conventional passenger rail service between Las Vegas and Los Angeles. The study was completed in June of 2007 with a supplement completed in 2008. In that document the RTC and participating authorities concluded that passenger rail service was viable within the LA to Las Vegas corridor and that up to 4 million people could and would switch from traveling by automobile to traveling by rail if a reliable passenger rail service could be established.
 
Recently, the University of Nevada, Las Vegas (UNLV)'s Rail Engineering Department, headed by Dr. Harry Teng, completed a rail study of the LA to Las Vegas rail corridor. In the UNLV study, the logistics of running a series of passenger trains through this corridor was determined that the railroads affected would have sufficient capacity to easily manage the proposed frequency of the X Train, once a week charter service.

Item 1A.  Risk Factors

Risks Related to Our Business
 
We have a limited operating history upon which an evaluation of our prospects can be made.
 
Our future operations are contingent upon generating revenues and raising capital for operations.  Because we have a limited operating history, you will have difficulty evaluating our business and future prospects.
We also face the risk that we may not be able to effectively implement our business plan.  If we are not effective in addressing these risks, we may not operate profitably and we may not have adequate working capital to meet our obligations as they become due.
We currently have no revenues and are totally dependent upon the proceeds from investors to fund our business.
We will have to fund all of our operations and capital expenditures from the net proceeds from investors, and future financings, as we have not yet generated revenues. There can be no assurance that we would be able to raise the additional funding needed to implement our business plans or that unanticipated costs will not increase our projected expenses.
We have a history of losses and can provide no assurance of our future operating results.
We have not generated revenue since inception, and may not succeed in generating revenue. We have experienced net losses and negative cash flows from operating activities since inception and we expect such losses and negative cash flows to continue in the foreseeable future. As of March 31, 2015, we had cash of $2,688. For the year ended March 31, 2015, we incurred net loss of $9,664,243. As of March 31, 2015, we had an aggregate accumulated deficit of $41,291,888.  We may never achieve profitability. The opinion of our independent registered public accountants on our audited financial statements as of and for the year ended March 31, 2015 contains an explanatory paragraph expressing substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.  Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon raising capital from financing transactions and continued implementation of our business plan.
Our business plan, in part, relies on our ability to acquire or partner with passenger rail companies.
We engage in attracting independently owned passenger rail operations to contract with us for either sales or operating rights contracts on their railroads.  Without these agreements, the Company would have no new operations from which it could operate its service.  The Company has no guarantee that it can secure these agreements in the future nor that the agreements it has can be maintained beyond their contract limits.
We have incurred substantial indebtedness.
As of March 31, 2015, we have outstanding promissory notes of approximately $2,985,574 before debt discount of $311,279.  In the past, we have been in default under this debt. There can be no assurances that we will raise sufficient capital or generate sufficient revenue in the future to service our debt. If legal proceedings were commenced against us or we are unable to service our debt, then creditors may foreclose on the debt and seize our assets which may force us to suspend or cease operations altogether.
 Our indebtedness, combined with our other financial obligations and contractual commitments, could:
15

 
make it more difficult for us to satisfy its obligations with respect to the indebtedness and any failure to comply with the obligations under any of our debt instruments, including restrictive covenants, could result in further event of defaults under the loan agreements and instruments governing the indebtedness;
   
 
require us to dedicate a substantial portion of any cash raised from financing or cash flow from future operations to payments on our indebtedness, thereby reducing funds available for working capital, capital expenditures, acquisitions, and other corporate purposes;
   
 
increase our vulnerability to adverse economic and industry conditions, which could place us at a competitive disadvantage compared to competitors that have relatively less indebtedness;
   
 
limit our flexibility in planning for, or reacting to, changes in business and the industry in which we operate; and
   
 
limit our ability to borrow additional funds, or to dispose of assets to raise funds, if needed, for working capital, capital expenditures, acquisitions, and other corporate purposes.

We may incur significant additional indebtedness in the future. If we incur a substantial amount of additional indebtedness, the related risks that we face could become more significant. Additionally, the terms of any future debt that we may incur may impose requirements or restrictions that further affect our financial and operating flexibility or subject it to other events of default.

If We Fail To Comply With The Numerous Laws And Regulations That Govern Our Industry, Our Business Could Be Adversely Affected.
Our business must comply with extensive and complex rules and regulations of various federal, state and local government authorities.  We may not always have been and may not always be in compliance with these requirements.  Failure to comply with these requirements may result in, among other things, revocation of our ability to operate a conventional rail system, class action lawsuits, administrative enforcement actions and civil and criminal liability.
The Loss Of Any Of Our Executive Officers Or Key Personnel Would Likely Have An Adverse Effect On Our Business.
Our future success depends to a significant extent on the continued services of our senior management and other key personnel, particularly Michael A. Barron.  The loss of the services of Mr. Barron or other key employees would also likely have an adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.
Our Business Will Be Adversely Affected If We Are Unable To Protect Our Intellectual Property Rights From Third Party Challenges Or If We Are Involved In Litigation.
Trademarks and other proprietary rights if any are important to our success and our competitive position.  Although we seek to protect our trademarks and other proprietary rights through a variety of means, we cannot assure you that the actions we have taken are adequate to protect these rights.  We may also license content from third parties in the future and it is possible that we could face infringement actions based upon the content licensed from these third parties.
Our common stock is quoted on the OTC Pink, which may limit the liquidity and price of our common stock more than if our common stock were quoted or listed on The Nasdaq Stock Market or a National Exchange.
Our securities are currently quoted on the OTC Pink, an inter-dealer automated quotation system for equity securities not included in the Nasdaq Stock Market.  Quotation of our securities on the OTC Pink may limit the liquidity and price of our securities more than if our securities were quoted or listed on The Nasdaq Stock Market or a national exchange.  Some investors may perceive our securities to be less attractive because they are traded in the over-the-counter market.  In addition, as an OTC Pink listed company, we do not attract the extensive analyst coverage that accompanies companies listed on other exchanges.  Further, institutional and other investors may have investment guidelines that restrict or prohibit investing in securities traded on the OTC Pink.  These factors may have an adverse impact on the trading and price of our common stock.
16

Our independent registered public accounting firm have expressed substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As shown in the accompanying financial statements, the Company has net loss of $9,664,243 for the year ended March 31, 201.  The Company also has an accumulated deficit of $41,291,888 and a negative working capital of $6,442,355 as of March 31, 2015, as well as outstanding convertible notes payable of $2,985,574, before debt discount of $311,279.  Management believes that it will need additional equity or debt financing to be able to implement the business plan.  Given the lack of revenue, capital deficiency and negative working capital, there is substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.

Risks Related to Our Common Stock

The application of the "Penny Stock" Rules could adversely affect the market price of our common stock and increase your transaction cost to sell those shares. .
The SEC has adopted rule 3a51-1 which establishes the definition of a "penny stock," for the purposes relevant to us, as any equity security that has a market price of less than $5.00 per share or with an exercise price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exceptions.  For any transaction involving a penny stock, unless exempt, Rule 15g-9 requires:
 
that a broker or dealer approve a person's account for transactions in penny stocks; and
 
In order to approve a person's account for transactions in penny stocks, the broker or dealer must:
 
obtain financial information and investment experience objectives of the person; and
     
 
make a reasonable determination that the transactions in penny stocks are suitable for that person and the person has sufficient knowledge and experience in financial matters to be capable of evaluating the risks of transactions in penny stocks.
 
The broker or dealer must also deliver, prior to any transaction in a penny stock, a disclosure schedule prescribed by the SEC relating to the penny stock market, which, in highlight form:
 
sets forth the basis on which the broker or dealer made the suitability determination; and
     
 
that the broker or dealer received a signed, written agreement from the investor prior to the transaction.
 
Generally, brokers may be less willing to execute transactions in securities subject to the "penny stock" rules.  This may make it more difficult for investors to dispose of our common stock and cause a decline in the market value of our stock.
 
the broker or dealer receives from the investor a written agreement to the transaction, setting forth the identity and quantity of the penny stock to be purchased.

We do not anticipate paying dividends.
We have never paid any cash dividends on our common stock since our inception, and we do not anticipate paying cash dividends in the foreseeable future.  Any dividends, which we may pay in the future, will be at the discretion of our Board of Directors and will depend on our future earnings, any applicable regulatory considerations, our financial requirements and other similarly unpredictable factors.  For the foreseeable future, we anticipate that earnings, if any, will be retained for the operation and expansion of our business.
Possible conflicts of interest exist in related party transactions.
Our Board of Directors consists of Michael A. Barron, Dr. Harry Teng and Louis M. Schillinger. These individuals are either executive officers, directors or principal shareholders of the Company.  Thus, there has in the past existed the potential for conflicts of interest in transactions between the Company and such individuals or entities in which such individuals have an interest.
There is a limited market for our common stock which may make it more difficult for stockholders to dispose of their shares.
Our common stock is currently quoted on the OTC Pink under the symbol "XTRN".  There is a limited trading market for our common stock.  Accordingly, there can be no assurance as to the liquidity of any markets that may develop for our common stock, the ability of holders of our common stock to sell our common stock, or the prices at which holders may be able to sell our common stock.
The price of our common stock is volatile, which may cause investment losses for our stockholders.
The market for our common stock is highly volatile, having ranged in the last twelve months from a low of $0.0001 to a high of $0.0002. The trading price of our common stock is subject to wide fluctuations in response to, among other things, quarterly variations in operating and financial results, and general economic and market conditions. In addition, statements or changes in opinions, ratings, or earnings estimates made by brokerage firms or industry analysts relating to our market or relating to us could result in an immediate and adverse effect on the market price of our common stock. The highly volatile nature of our stock price may cause investment losses for our shareholders. In the past, securities class action litigation has often been brought against companies following periods of volatility in the market price of their securities. If securities class action litigation is brought against us, such litigation could result in substantial costs while diverting management's attention and resources.
 Our common stock could be further diluted as the result of the issuance of additional shares of common stock, convertible securities, warrants or options.
In the past, we have issued common stock, convertible securities (such as convertible debentures and notes) and warrants in order to raise money. We have also issued options and warrants as compensation for services and incentive compensation for our employees and directors. We have shares of common stock reserved for issuance upon the exercise of certain of these securities and may increase the shares reserved for these purposes in the future. Our issuance of additional common stock, convertible securities, options and warrants could affect the rights of our stockholders, result in a reduction in the overall percentage holdings of our stockholders, could put downward pressure on the market price of our common stock, could result in adjustments to exercise prices of outstanding warrants, and could obligate us to issue additional shares of common stock to certain of our stockholders.
Shares eligible for future sale may adversely affect the market.
From time to time, certain of our stockholders may be eligible to sell all or some of their shares of common stock by means of ordinary brokerage transactions in the open market pursuant to Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act, subject to certain limitations. In general, pursuant to amended Rule 144, non-affiliate stockholders may sell freely after six months subject only to the current public information requirement. Affiliates may sell after six months subject to the Rule 144 volume, manner of sale (for equity securities), and current public information and notice requirements. Any substantial sales of our common stock pursuant to Rule 144 may have a material adverse effect on the market price of our common stock.
A large percentage of our stock is owned by relatively few people, including officers and directors.
 
As of March 31, 2015, our officers and directors beneficially owned approximately 22.79% of our outstanding common stock.  As a result,  these stockholders could, if they were to act together, affect the outcome of stockholder votes, which could, among other things, affect elections of directors, delay or prevent a change in control or other transaction that might be beneficial other stockholders.

Forward-Looking Statements

Statements contained in this Form 10-K that are not historical facts are forward-looking statements.  In addition, words such as "believes," "anticipates," "expects," "intends" and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements.  Such forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors which may cause the actual results, performance or achievements or events, or timing of events, to differ materially from any future results, performance or achievements or events, or timing of events, expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements.  We cannot assure that we will be able to anticipate or respond timely to the changes that could adversely affect our operating results in one or more fiscal quarters.  Results of operations in any past period should not be considered indicative of results to be expected in future periods.  Fluctuations in operating results may result in fluctuations in the price of our securities.

Item 7.  Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
 
The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our financial statements and notes thereto included elsewhere herein.
            
Critical Accounting Policies

The preparation of our financial statements and notes thereto requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts and disclosures reported within those financial statements. On an ongoing basis, management evaluates its estimates, including those related to collection of receivables, impairment of goodwill, contingencies, litigation and income taxes. Management bases its estimates and judgments on historical experiences and on various other factors believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results under circumstances and conditions different than those assumed could result in material differences from the estimated amounts in the financial statements. There have been no material changes to these policies during the fiscal year.
20

Property and Equipment:

Property and equipment are recorded at historical cost and depreciated on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives of approximately five years once the individual assets are placed in service.  The Company expenses all purchases of equipment with individual costs of under $500, and these amounts are not material to the financial statements.

Long-Lived Assets:

In accordance with FASB ASC 360-10, the Company evaluates long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their net book value may not be recoverable. When such factors and circumstances exist, the Company compares the projected undiscounted future cash flows associated with the related asset or group of assets over their estimated useful lives against their respective carrying amount. Impairment, if any, is based on the excess of the carrying amount over the fair value, based on market value when available, or discounted expected cash flows, of those assets and is recorded in the period in which the determination is made.
Income Taxes:

The Company accounts for income taxes under FASB ASC 740 "Income Taxes."  Under the asset and liability method of FASB ASC 740, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements or tax returns. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse.  The deferred tax assets of the Company relate primarily to operating loss carryforwards for federal income tax purposes. A full valuation allowance for deferred tax assets has been provided because the Company believes it is not more likely than not that the deferred tax asset will be realized. Realization of deferred tax assets is dependent on the Company generating sufficient taxable income in future periods.

The Company periodically evaluates its tax positions to determine whether it is more likely than not that such positions would be sustained upon examination by a tax authority for all open tax years, as defined by the statute of limitations, based on their technical merits. As of March 31, 2015, the Company has not established a liability for uncertain tax positions.

Share Based Payment:

The Company issues stock, options and warrants as share-based compensation to employees and non-employees.

The Company accounts for its share-based compensation to employees in accordance FASB ASC 718.  Stock-based compensation cost is measured at the grant date, based on the estimated fair value of the award, and is recognized as expense over the requisite service period. 

The Company accounts for share-based compensation issued to non-employees and consultants in accordance with the provisions of FASB ASC 505-50 "Equity - Based Payments to Non-Employees." Measurement of share-based payment transactions with non-employees is based on the fair value of whichever is more reliably measurable: (a) the goods or services received; or (b) the equity instruments issued. The final fair value of the share-based payment transaction is determined at the performance completion date. For interim periods, the fair value is estimated and the percentage of completion is applied to that estimate to determine the cumulative expense recorded.

The Company values stock compensation based on the market price on the measurement date. As described above, for employees this is the date of grant, and for non-employees, this is the date of performance completion.
21


There were 3,175 shares of common stock as exercise of options issued during the years ended March 31, 2015.  There were 465 warrants issued during the year ended March 31, 2015.  Assumptions used to value warrants issued during the year ended March 31, 2015 are as follows:

Certain warrants qualify as derivative instruments and were valued in the year ended March 31, 2015 using the binomial lattice method. See discussion below regarding accounting for derivative liabilities.
 
Derivative Liabilities:

In connection with the private placement of convertible notes beginning in February 2013, the Company became contingently obligated to issue shares of common stock in excess of our then maximum of 20 thousand shares of authorized common stock under the Company's certificate of incorporation.  Consequently, the ability to settle these obligations with shares would be unavailable causing these obligations to potentially be settled in cash. This condition created a derivative liability.

The Company has a sequencing policy regarding share settlement wherein instruments with the earliest issuance date would be settled first. The sequencing policy also considers contingently issuable additional shares, such as those issuable upon a stock split, to have an issuance date to coincide with the event giving rise to the additional shares.

On December 2, 2013, the Company effected a one-for-twenty reverse stock split of the Company's issued and outstanding common stock shares.  As a result, the Company's outstanding shares of common stock and common stock equivalents no longer exceeded the number of authorized shares.  As a result, as of December 2, 2013, these instruments that were accounted for as derivative liabilities were reclassified as equity.

The Company also has certain warrants and embedded conversion options in notes payable with elements that qualify as derivatives. The warrants have anti-dilution clauses that prevent calculation of the ultimate number of shares that may be issued upon exercise, and four outstanding notes payable that had a variable conversion feature that similarly prevented the calculation of the number of shares into which they were convertible.

The Company values these warrants and embedded conversion options in notes payable using the Black-Scholes model.  The resulting liability is valued at each reporting date and the change in the liability is reflected as change in derivative liability in the condensed statement of operations.
In determining the appropriate fair value of the derivative liabilities, the Company used the following input levels for its valuation methodology (see Note 6 for more information regarding the Company's derivative instruments).

Fair Value of Financial Instruments:

The Company's financial instruments as defined by FASB ASC 825-10-50 include cash, notes payable and derivative liabilities.  Derivative liabilities are recorded at fair value.  The principal balance of notes payable approximates fair value because current interest rates and terms offered to the Company for similar debt are substantially the same.

FASB ASC 820 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. FASB ASC 820 establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value as follows:

Level 1. Observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets;

Level 2. Inputs, other than the quoted prices in active markets, that are observable either directly or indirectly; and

Level 3. Unobservable inputs in which there is little or no market data, which requires the reporting entity to develop its own assumptions.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Liquidity is the ability of a company to generate funds to support asset growth, satisfy disbursement needs, maintain reserve requirements and otherwise operate on an ongoing basis. The Company has no operating revenues and is currently dependent on debt financing and sale of equity to fund operations. 
 
As shown in the accompanying financial statements, the Company has net loss of $9,664,243 for the year ended March 31, 2015.  The Company also has an accumulated deficit of $41,291,888 and a negative working capital of $6,442,355 as of March 31, 2015, as well as outstanding convertible notes payable of $2,985,574, before debt discount of $311,279.  Management believes that it will need additional equity or debt financing to be able to implement the business plan.  Given the lack of revenue, capital deficiency and negative working capital, there is substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.

We believe that the successful growth and operation of our business is dependent upon our ability to do the following:
 
· 
obtain adequate sources of debt or equity financing to pay unfunded operating expenses and fund long-term business operations; and
   
· 
manage or control working capital requirements by controlling operating expenses.
 
Management is attempting to raise additional equity and debt to sustain operations until it can market its services and achieves profitability.  The successful outcome of future activities cannot be determined at this time and there are no assurances that, if achieved, the Company will have sufficient funds to execute its intended business plan or generate positive operating results.

Cash Flows

Net cash used in operating activities for the year ended March 31, 2015 was $1,811,508.  Cash used in operating activities for the year ended March 31, 2015 was primarily due to net loss of $9,664,243.  During the year ended March 31, 2015, the net loss included significant non-cash expenses of $291,227 in stock issued for services, $1,729,612 in amortization of discounts on notes payable, $2,840,645 for the stock option compensation, $329,416 for the warrants issued for services, $645,277 for loss on disposal of equipment, $250,000 for amortization of debt issuance costs, $130,625 for stock issued for compensation, $425,640 in debt conversion expenses, $1,391,203 in excess derivative liability expense and $1,201,739 for gain on change in derivative liability.
23


Net cash used in investing activities during the year ended March 31, 2015 was $3,937 for purchase of equipment.
 
Net cash provided by financing activities for the year ended March 31, 2015 was $1,740,223 which consisted of $560,350 from proceeds from sale of shares of common stock, $4,417 from exercise of warrants, $1,052,318 from proceeds from convertible notes payable and $106,138 from proceeds from related parties notes payable.

Description of Indebtedness

For a complete description of our outstanding debt as of March 31, 2015, see Notes 4 and 5 to the financial statements.

The above warrants issued with respect to the Purchase Agreement, dated November 22, 2013, and Typenex Note, dated May 12, 2014, described above have anti-dilution clauses and variable exercise rates that prevent calculation of the ultimate number of shares that may be issued upon exercise, and all of the outstanding convertible note balances described above have variable conversion features that similarly prevented the calculation of the number of shares into which they were convertible.  As a result, the Company accounts for both the conversion feature associated with these notes and the warrants as derivatives.  The Company values these warrants and conversion features using the Black-Scholes method.  The resulting liability is valued at each reporting date and the change in the liability is reflected as change in derivative liability in the statement of operations.

Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying balance sheet of Las Vegas Railway Express, Inc. (the "Company") as of March 31, 2015, the related statements of operations, stockholders' deficit and cash flows for the year then ended and the related notes (collectively referred to as the "financial statements"). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of March 31, 2015, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Basis for Opinion
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company's financial statements based on our audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) ("PCAOB") and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud.  The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting.  As part of our audit, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting.  Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

Our audit included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audit also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Emphasis of Matter
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern.  The Company has suffered recurring losses and has no operations which raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern.  Management's plans in regard to these matters are described in Note 2. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Other Matter
The financial statements of the Company for the year ended March 31, 2014, were audited by another auditor who expressed an unmodified opinion on those statements on June 30, 2014.

LAS VEGAS RAILWAY EXPRESS, INC.
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEARS ENDED MARCH 31, 2015 and 2014
 
(1)  Description of Business:

Las Vegas Railway Express, Inc.  (the "Company") was formed as a Delaware corporation in March 9, 2007 as Corporate Outfitters, Inc., a development stage company. On November 3, 2008, pursuant to a common stock purchase agreement, the Company acquired 100% of the outstanding capital stock of Liberty Capital Asset Management, a Nevada corporation, formed in July of 2008 as a holding company for all the assets of CD Banc LLC in contemplation of the company going public via a reverse merger into a publicly trading corporation.  CD Banc LLC was formed in 2003 as a Nevada limited liability corporation with the purpose of acquiring real estate assets and holding them for long-term appreciation.  On January 21, 2010, the Company completed a share exchange and asset purchase agreement with Las Vegas Railway Express, a Nevada Corporation, and subsequently changed its name from Liberty Capital Asset Management, Inc. to Las Vegas Railway Express, Inc.

Our company, Las Vegas Railway Express, Inc., is establishing a new and innovative passenger train service between Las Vegas and the Los Angeles metropolitan area by hiring Amtrak to haul our passenger cars for a fee, between Los Angeles and Las Vegas. The proposed service, called the "X Train," will introduce a "Las Vegas" style experience on the train, while traversing the route in approximately 5 ½ hours. We will be profitable on the very first run based on our pricing model.

(2)  Summary of Significant Accounting Policies:
 
Basis of Presentation:

The accompanying financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"). 

Effective on December 2, 2013, the Company executed a one-for-twenty reverse split of the Company's issued and outstanding shares of common stock.  All references to number of shares and per share amounts included in this report give effect to the reverse stock split.
   
Going Concern:

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As shown in the accompanying financial statements, the Company has net loss of $9,664,243 for the year ended March 31, 2015.  The Company also has an accumulated deficit of $41,291,888 and a negative working capital of $6,442,355 as of March 31, 2015, as well as outstanding convertible notes payable of $2,985,574, before debt discount of $311,279 and $204,550 is due during the year ending March 31, 2016.  Management believes that it will need additional equity or debt financing to be able to implement the business plan.  Given the lack of revenue, capital deficiency and negative working capital, there is substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.

Management is attempting to raise additional equity and debt to sustain operations until it can market its services and achieves profitability.  The successful outcome of future activities cannot be determined at this time and there are no assurances that, if achieved, the Company will have sufficient funds to execute its intended business plan or generate positive operating results.

The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments related to the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

33

Revenue Recognition
 
The Company recognizes revenue from the sale of products and services in accordance with ASC 606,"Revenue Recognition" following the five steps procedure:
 
Step 1: Identify the contract(s) with customers
Step 2: Identify the performance obligations in the contract
Step 3: Determine the transaction price
Step 4: Allocate the transaction price to performance obligations
Step 5: Recognize revenue when the entity satisfies a performance obligation
 
The Company recognizes revenue when it satisfies its obligation by transferring control of the good or service to the customer. A performance obligation is satisfied over time if one of the following criteria are met:
 
 
a.
the customer simultaneously receives and consumes the benefits as the entity performs;
 
b.
the entity's performance creates or enhances an asset that the customer controls as the asset is created or enhanced; or
 
c.
the entity's performance does not create an asset with an alternative use to the entity, and the entity has an enforceable right to payment for performance completed to date.

Risks and Uncertainties:

The Company generates no revenues.  The Company operates in an industry that is subject to intense competition and potential government regulations.  Significant changes in regulations and the inability of the Company to establish contracts with rail services providers could have a materially adverse impact on the Company's operations.
 
Use of Estimates:

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reported periods.  Amounts could materially change in the future.

Cash and Cash Equivalents:

The Company considers all highly liquid holdings with maturities of three months or less at the time of purchase to be cash equivalents.

Property and Equipment:

Property and equipment are recorded at historical cost and depreciated on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives of approximately five years once the individual assets are placed in service.  The Company expenses all purchases of equipment with individual costs of under $500.


Long-Lived Assets:

In accordance with FASB ASC 360-10, the Company evaluates long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their net book value may not be recoverable. When such factors and circumstances exist, the Company compares the projected undiscounted future cash flows associated with the related asset or group of assets over their estimated useful lives against their respective carrying amount. Impairment, if any, is based on the excess of the carrying amount over the fair value, based on market value when available, or discounted expected cash flows, of those assets and is recorded in the period in which the determination is made.
34


Basic and Diluted Loss Per Share:

In accordance with FASB ASC 260, "Earnings Per Share," the basic loss per common share is computed by dividing the net loss available to common stockholders after preferred stock dividends, by the weighted average common shares outstanding during the period.  Diluted earnings per share reflect per share amounts that would have resulted if diluted potential common stock had been converted to common stock.  Common stock equivalents have not been included in the diluted earnings per share computation for the year ended March 31, 2015 as the amounts are anti-dilutive.  As of March 31, 2015, the Company had 10 outstanding options which were excluded from the computation of net loss per share because they are anti-dilutive.  As of March 31, 2015, the Company also had convertible debt that is convertible into 290,436 of common stock which was excluded from the computation.  As of March 31, 2015, the Company had 465 outstanding warrants, which were also excluded from the computation because they were anti-dilutive.

Income Taxes:

The Company accounts for income taxes under FASB ASC 740 "Income Taxes."  Under the asset and liability method of FASB ASC 740, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements or tax returns. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse.  The deferred tax assets of the Company relate primarily to operating loss carryforwards for federal income tax purposes. A full valuation allowance for deferred tax assets has been provided because the Company believes it is not more likely than not that the deferred tax asset will be realized. Realization of deferred tax assets is dependent on the Company generating sufficient taxable income in future periods.

The deferred tax liability no longer existed as of March 31, 2015.
 
The Company periodically evaluates its tax positions to determine whether it is more likely than not that such positions would be sustained upon examination by a tax authority for all open tax years, as defined by the statute of limitations, based on their technical merits. As of March 31, 2015, the Company has not established a liability for uncertain tax positions.

Share Based Payment:

The Company issues stock, options and warrants as share-based compensation to employees and non-employees.

The Company accounts for its share-based compensation to employees in accordance FASB ASC 718.  Stock-based compensation cost is measured at the grant date, based on the estimated fair value of the award, and is recognized as expense over the requisite service period. 

The Company accounts for share-based compensation issued to non-employees and consultants in accordance with the provisions of FASB ASC 505-50 "Equity - Based Payments to Non-Employees." Measurement of share-based payment transactions with non-employees is based on the fair value of whichever is more reliably measurable: (a) the goods or services received; or (b) the equity instruments issued. The final fair value of the share-based payment transaction is determined at the performance completion date. For interim periods, the fair value is estimated and the percentage of completion is applied to that estimate to determine the cumulative expense recorded.

The Company values stock compensation based on the market price on the measurement date. As described above, for employees this is the date of grant, and for non-employees, this is the date of performance completion.

35

Derivative Liabilities:

In connection with the private placement of Convertible Notes beginning in February 2013, the Company became contingently obligated to issue shares of common stock in excess of the 50 thousand authorized under the Company's certificate of incorporation.  Consequently, the ability to settle these obligations with shares would be unavailable causing these obligations to potentially be settled in cash. This condition creates a derivative liability.

The Company has a sequencing policy regarding share settlement wherein instruments with the earliest issuance date would be settled first. The sequencing policy also considers contingently issuable additional shares, such as those issuable upon a stock split, to have an issuance date to coincide with the event giving rise to the additional shares.

Using this sequencing policy, all instruments convertible into common stock, including warrants and the conversion feature of notes payable, issued on and subsequent to November 30, 2012 had been accounted for as derivative liabilities.

The Company also has certain warrants and embedded conversion options in notes payable with elements that qualify as derivatives. The warrants have anti-dilution clauses that prevent calculation of the ultimate number of shares that may be issued upon exercise, and four outstanding notes payable that had a variable conversion feature that similarly prevented the calculation of the number of shares into which they were convertible.

The Company values these warrants and embedded conversion options in notes payable using the binomial lattice method.  The resulting liability is valued at each reporting date and the change in the liability is reflected as change in derivative liability in the statement of operations (see Note 7).

Fair Value of Financial Instruments:

The Company's financial instruments as defined by FASB ASC 825-10-50 include cash, notes payable and derivative liabilities.  Derivative liabilities are recorded at fair value.  The principal balance of notes payable approximates fair value because current interest rates and terms offered to the Company for similar debt are substantially the same.

FASB ASC 820 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. FASB ASC 820 establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value as follows:

Level 1. Observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets;

Level 2. Inputs, other than the quoted prices in active markets, that are observable either directly or indirectly; and

Level 3. Unobservable inputs in which there is little or no market data, which requires the reporting entity to develop its own assumptions.

On September 23, 2014, the Company entered into a convertible promissory note with JSJ Investments, Inc. providing for total borrowings of $44,679 which bears interest at a rate of 15% per annum.  The convertible note matures on March 23, 2015, currently in default, at which point the outstanding principal and interest is due.  The outstanding amounts are convertible into shares of common stock at a conversion rate equal to 45% of the average of the 3 lowest trading prices during the ten trading days prior to the conversion.  During the three months ended September 30, 2014, JSJ Investments, Inc. converted $15,767 of outstanding principal into 282 shares of common stock under the terms of the agreement.  During the three months ended December 31, 2014 JSJ Investments, Inc. converted $29,308 of outstanding principal into 2,483 shares of common stock and as of March 31, 2015, at which time the note had an outstanding principal balance of $0.

The above warrants issued with respect to the Purchase Agreement, dated November 22, 2013, and Typenex Note, dated May 12, 2014, described above have anti-dilution clauses and variable exercise rates that prevent calculation of the ultimate number of shares that may be issued upon exercise, and all of the outstanding convertible note balances described above have variable conversion features that similarly prevented the calculation of the number of shares into which they were convertible.  As a result, the Company accounts for both the conversion feature associated with these notes and the warrants as derivatives.  The Company values these warrants and conversion features using the Black-Scholes method.  The resulting liability is valued at each reporting date and the change in the liability is reflected as change in derivative liability in the statement of operations.

The following summarizes the book value of the convertible notes payable outstanding as of March 31, 2015:

(7)  Derivative Instruments:

Excess Shares

In connection with the private placement of Convertible Notes beginning in February 2013 (see Note 5), the Company became contingently obligated to issue shares in excess of the 20 thousand shares authorized by stockholders. Consequently, the ability to settle these obligations with shares would be unavailable causing these obligations to potentially be settled in cash. This condition creates a derivative liability.

The Company has a sequencing policy regarding share settlement wherein instruments with the earliest issuance date would be settled first. The sequencing policy also considers contingently issuable additional shares, such as those issuable upon a stock split or anti-dilution, to have an issuance date to coincide with the event giving rise to the additional shares.

Using this sequencing policy, all instruments convertible into common stock, including warrants and the conversion feature of notes payable, issued subsequent to February 19, 2013 are classified as derivative liabilities.

Other Derivatives

The Company has certain warrants and notes payable with elements that qualify as derivatives. The warrants have anti-dilution clauses that prevent calculation of the ultimate number of shares that may be issued upon exercise, and two of the notes payable had a variable conversion feature that similarly prevented the calculation of the number of shares into which they were convertible.

The derivative liability, as it relates to the different instruments, is shown in the following table:

Item 9A.  Controls and Procedures.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures. Our management, with the participation of our CEO and our CFO, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as March 31, 2015.  Based on that evaluation, our CEO and our CFO concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) were effective as of March 31, 2015 such that material information required to be disclosed is made known to management and others, as appropriate, to allow timely decision regarding required disclosure and that the information required to be disclosed by us in reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms and (ii) accumulated and communicated to our management, including our CEO and CFO, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. A controls system cannot provide absolute assurance, however, that the objectives of the controls system are met, and no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within a company have been detected.
 
Management's Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting.

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act). Our internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes of accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their control objectives.
 
Our management, with the participation of the CEO and CFO, evaluated the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting as of March 31, 2015. In making this assessment, our management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal Control — Integrated Framework. Based on this evaluation, our management, with the participation of the CEO and CFO, concluded that, as of March 31, 2015, our internal control over financial reporting was not effective.
 
This annual report does not include an attestation report of the Company's registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management's report was not subject to attestation by the Company's registered public accounting firm pursuant to an exemption for smaller reporting companies under Section 989G of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act.
 
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting.

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended March 31, 2015 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect our internal control over financial reporting.

Indemnification of Directors and Officers

Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law permits a corporation to indemnify its directors and officers against expenses, judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred in connection with a pending or completed action, suit or proceeding if the officer or director acted in good faith and in a manner the officer or director reasonably believed to be in the best interests of the corporation.

Our certificate of incorporation provides that, except in certain specified instances, our directors shall not be personally liable to us or our stockholders for monetary damages for breach of their fiduciary duty as directors, except for the following:
49


  ●
any breach of their duty of loyalty to our company or our stockholders;
 
  ●
acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law;
 
  ●
unlawful payments of dividends or unlawful stock repurchases or redemptions as provided in Section 174 of the Delaware General Corporation Law; and
 
  ●
any transaction from which the director derived an improper personal benefit.
 

In addition, our certificate of incorporation and bylaws obligate us to indemnify our directors and officers against expenses and other amounts reasonably incurred in connection with any proceeding arising from the fact that such person is or was an agent of ours. Our bylaws also authorize us to purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of any of our directors or officers against any liability asserted against that person in that capacity, whether or not we would have the power to indemnify that person under the provisions of the Delaware General Corporation Law. We expect to continue to enter into agreements to indemnify our directors and officers as determined by our Board of Directors. These agreements provide for indemnification of related expenses including attorneys' fees, judgments, fines, and settlement amounts incurred by any of these individuals in any action or proceeding. We believe that these bylaw provisions and indemnification agreements are necessary to attract any retain qualified persons as directors and officers.

The limitation of liability and indemnification provisions in our certificate of incorporation and bylaws may discourage stockholders from bringing a lawsuit against our directors for breach of their fiduciary duty. They may also reduce the likelihood of derivative litigation against our directors and officers, even though an action, if successful, might benefit us and other stockholders. Furthermore, a stockholder's investment may be adversely affected to the extent that we pay the costs of settlement and damage awards against directors and officers as required by these indemnification provisions. At present, there is no pending litigation or proceeding involving any of our directors, officers or employees regarding, which indemnification is sought, and we are not aware of any threatened litigation that may result in claims for indemnification.

Insofar as the provisions of our certificate of incorporation or bylaws provide for indemnification of directors or officers for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Securities Act, we have been informed that in the opinion of the Commission this indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is therefore unenforceable.

Family Relationships

There are no family relationships between any of our directors or executive officers and any other directors or executive officers, except that Dianne David Barron, the Company's Director Asset Development is the spouse of the CEO, Michael A. Barron.
