                    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 six months ended June 30, 1994
    and 1993, Marmon Industrial absorbed losses of $176 and $59, respectively.

6.  During the second quarter of 1994, the Company repaid all outstanding
    commercial paper (through reductions in advances to parent) and suspended
    its commercial paper program effective May 23, 1994.  On May 26, 1994, the
    Company terminated the revolving credit agreement which had 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
- - ---------------------
2nd Quarter 1994 versus 1993
- - ----------------------------

Service revenues remained relatively unchanged from the comparable period in
1993 primarily due to the effect of cars added to the railcar lease fleet offset
by lower revenues from sulphur service operations.  Gross margin percentages
remained relatively unchanged from the comparable period in 1993.

Sales revenues increased $16.5 million primarily due to manufactured head sales
of $2.9 million and increased railcar sales of $13.9 million.


Six Months 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 sales partially
offset by lower revenues from sulphur service operations.  Gross margin
percentages remained relatively unchanged from the comparable period in 1993.

Sales revenues increased $22.4 million primarily due to manufactured head sales
of $5.6 million and increased railcar sales of $16.3 million.

Other income decreased $2.1 million 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 $62.9 million of cash.  These funds, along with
the issuance of long-term debt, were used to provide financing for railcar
additions, repay commercial paper obligations, service long-term debt
obligations and pay dividends to the Company's stockholder.

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

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.

                          PART II.  OTHER INFORMATION



Item 1.  Legal Proceedings

       Reference is made to "Business - Environmental Matters" in the Company's
       Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1993 and to
       "Item 1. Legal Proceedings" in the Company's Quarterly Report on Form 10-
       Q for the quarterly period ended March 31, 1994 for a description of
       certain environmental matters.

       In connection with the Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Resources
       ("DER") request that the Company cooperate in a site assessment of the
       areas of potential environmental contamination at the Company's Altoona,
       Pennsylvania facility, the Company has submitted a site assessment plan
       to the Pennsylvania DER which has been accepted by the agency, and the
       Company is proceeding to implement this plan.

       In connection with the alleged violations of the Clean Water Act and the
       terms of the three industrial wastewater discharge permits held by the
       Company at its East Chicago, Indiana facility, the U.S. Department of
       Justice ("DOJ") has notified the Company that it intends to file a
       federal civil action against the Company under the Clean Water Act, but
       has offered the Company an opportunity to settle this matter before
       litigation is commenced.  The Company is engaged in settlement
       negotiations with the DOJ.

       With respect to the sites at which the Company has been designated as a
       Potentially Responsible Party by the U.S. Environmental Protection
       Agency, management of the Company continues to believe that future costs
       related to these sites will not be material to the Company, either
       individually or in the aggregate.

Item 6.  Exhibits and Reports on Form 8-K
 
  b.  No report on Form 8-K was filed during the six months ended June 30, 1994.
