                    UNION TANK CAR COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES
              NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                             (Dollars in Thousands)
                                  (Unaudited)


1.  Union Tank Car Company (the Company) is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Marmon
    Industrial Corporation (Marmon Industrial).   Marmon Industrial is a wholly-
    owned indirect subsidiary of Marmon Holdings, Inc. (Marmon Holdings),
    substantially all of the stock of which is owned, directly or indirectly, by
    trusts for the benefit of certain members of the Pritzker family.  As used
    herein, "Pritzker family" refers to the lineal descendants of Nicholas J.
    Pritzker, deceased.

2.  The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements
    include all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring accruals, which the
    Company considers necessary for a fair presentation.  These interim
    financial statements do not include all disclosures normally provided in
    annual financial statements.  Accordingly, they should be read in
    conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto in
    the Company's 1993 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

    The foregoing 1994 interim results are not necessarily indicative of the
    results of operations for the full year 1994.

3.  As more fully described in the Company's 1993 Annual Report on Form 10-K,
    under an arrangement with Marmon Industrial, the Company is included in the
    consolidated federal income tax return of Marmon Holdings.   As a member of
    a consolidated federal income tax group, the Company is contingently liable
    for the federal income taxes of the other members of the group.

4.  The Company and its subsidiaries have been named as defendants in a number
    of lawsuits, and certain claims are pending.   The Company has accrued what
    it reasonably expects to pay in resolution of these matters and, in the
    opinion of management, their ultimate resolution will not have a material
    effect on the Company's consolidated financial position or results of
    operations.

5.  Foreign currency translation adjustments and transaction gains and losses
    are assumed by the Company's parent.  For the three months ended March 31,
    1994 and 1993, Marmon Industrial absorbed a loss of $74 and a gain of $25,
    respectively.

6.  At March 31, 1994 the Company had outstanding $54,000 face value of
    commercial paper with a discount of $143 and an average effective interest
    yield of 3.77%.  Commercial paper maturities range from one to three months
    from the date of issuance.  The commercial paper is included in borrowed
    debt.  During the second quarter of 1994 the Company will repay all
    outstanding commercial paper (through reductions in advances to parent) and
    will suspend its commercial paper program effective May 23, 1994.  On May
    26, 1994, the Company will terminate the revolving credit agreement which
    has served as a liquidity back-up to the commercial paper program.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
        AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Results of Operations
- - ---------------------
1st Quarter 1994 versus 1993
- - ----------------------------

Service revenues increased $6.0 million primarily due to the effect of cars
added to the railcar lease fleet and increased repair and lining revenues.
Gross margin percentages remained relatively unchanged from the comparable
period in 1993.

In January, 1994, the Company purchased certain assets used in the manufacture
of heads for metal containers.  Sales revenues increased primarily due to
manufactured head sales of $2.7 million as well as increased hopper car sales of
$2.9 million.

Other income decreased primarily due to reduced interest income resulting from
lower average outstanding balances on advances to the Company's parent.

Financial Condition
- - -------------------
1994 versus 1993
- - ----------------

Operating activities provided $36.8 million of cash.  These funds, along with
the issuance of long-term debt net of amounts advanced to parent, were used to
provide financing for railcar additions, service long-term debt obligations and
pay a dividend to the Company's stockholder.

In March, 1994, the Company issued $100.0 million in long-term equipment trust
certificates to finance additions to its railcar fleet at an annual interest
rate of 6.6%.

Management expects future cash from operating activities and long-term railcar
financings will be adequate to provide for the continued expansion of the
Company's business and enable it to meet its debt service obligations.
