Segment Reporting [Abstract]  
Segment Information
SEGMENT INFORMATION:
The Company's various railroad lines are divided into nine operating regions. Since each region has similar characteristics, they previously had been aggregated into one reportable segment. Beginning January 1, 2011, the Company has decided to present its financial information as two reportable segments, North American & European Operations and Australian Operations.
The results of operations of the foreign entities are maintained in the respective local currency (the Australian dollar, the Canadian dollar and the Euro) and then translated into United States dollars at the applicable exchange rates for inclusion in the consolidated financial statements. As a result, any appreciation or depreciation of these currencies against the United States dollar will impact our results of operations.
The following table sets forth our North American & European Operations and Australian Operations for the three months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 (dollars in thousands):
