                    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 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
    1994 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

    Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current
    year's presentation.

    The 1995 interim results presented herein are not necessarily indicative of
    the results of operations for the full year 1995.

3.  As more fully described in the Company's 1994 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 nine months ended September 30,
    1995 and 1994, Marmon Industrial absorbed a gain of $1,690 and loss of $235,
    respectively.

6.  The Company's Canadian subsidiaries enter into foreign currency forward
    contracts to hedge against U.S. dollar exposures. Foreign currency forward
    contracts, all with initial maturities of less than one year, amounted to
    $6,230 at September 30, 1995, and $12,572 at December 31, 1994.

8.  On September 20, 1995, the Company entered into a sale-leaseback transaction
    with a trust for the benefit of an institutional investor pursuant to which
    it sold and leased back an aggregate of 1,623 railcars, including 1,263 tank
    cars. The Company recognized sales revenue of $100,822. In connection with
    the sale-leaseback transaction, the Company expects to sell and leaseback an
    additional 434 railcars, including 329 tank cars, and record additional
    revenues of $29,695 in December, 1995. The Company has an option to purchase
    all or a portion of the railcars subject to the lease at a fixed purchase
    price on January 2, 2006. The lease expires on January 2, 2012.

9.  On September 20, 1995, the Company issued $26,063 in long-term equipment
    trust certificates and expects to issue an additional $4,173 of long-term
    equipment trust certificates in December, 1995, to finance additions to its
    railcar fleet. The certificates bear interest at a rate of 6.76% per annum.
    Interest is due semi-annually through January, 2006, commencing in January,
    1996. Principal will be due January, 2006.

10. On October 2, 1995, the Company repaid, by early redemption, $41,288
    principal amount of 13.0% interest rate equipment obligations which were
    originally due semi-annually through May, 2000.

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

Results of Operations
- ---------------------
3rd Quarter 1995 versus 1994
- ----------------------------

Service revenues increased $12.5 million primarily due to the effect of cars
added to the railcar lease fleet. Gross margin percentages decreased slightly
from the comparable period in 1994.

Sales revenues included $100.8 million from a sale-leaseback transaction.
Excluding the sale lease-back, net sales revenues increased $40.2 million
primarily due to increased railcar sales of $23.7 million and increased sulphur
operations revenues of $14.7 million. Most of the sulphur operations revenue
increase was attributable to the acquisition in July, 1995, of the operations of
a Canadian full service sulphur marketing company.


Nine Months 1995 versus 1994
- ----------------------------

Service revenues increased $20.7 million primarily due to the effect of cars
added to the railcar lease fleet. Gross margin percentages decreased slightly
from the comparable period in 1994.

Sales revenues increased primarily due to increased railcar sales of $62.0
million (excluding the September, 1995 sale-leaseback), increased sulphur
operations revenues of $18.4 million and increased fastener sales of $4.2
million.

Interest expense declined due to reduced debt outstanding.


Financial Condition
- -------------------
1995 versus 1994
- ----------------

Operating activities provided $134.6 million of cash. These funds, along with
proceeds from the sale-leaseback transaction and the issuance of long-term debt,
were used to provide financing for railcar additions, service long-term debt
obligations and pay dividends to the Company's stockholder.

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