                    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
    1995 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

    The 1996 interim results presented herein are not necessarily indicative of
    the results of operations for the full year 1996.

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

3.  As more fully described in the Company's 1995 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,
    1996 and 1995, Marmon Industrial absorbed gains of $36 and $260,
    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
    $5,400 at both March 31, 1996, and December 31, 1995.

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


Results of Operations
1st Quarter 1996 versus 1995

Service revenues increased $13.8 million. Slightly more than half of the
increase resulted from expansion of the Company's sulphur service operations in
the third quarter of 1995. The remaining increase was primarily due to the
effect of cars added to the lease fleet. Gross margin percentages decreased
slightly from the comparable period in 1995.

Sales revenues decreased $31.1 million primarily due to decreased railcar sales
of $29.3 million.

Other income decreased slightly primarily due to decreased interest income
resulting from lower average outstanding balances on advances to the company's
parent, as well as lower market interest rates.

Financial Condition
1996 versus 1995

Operating activities provided $45.0 million of cash. These funds, along with the
collection of funds advanced to parent, were used to provide financing for
railcar additions, service borrowed debt obligations and pay a dividend to the
Company's stockholder.

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

Change in Accounting Principle

The Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 121,
"Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to
be Disposed Of." The adoption of this new standard did not have a material
impact on the Company's financial position, results of operations or cash flow.

                          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,
         1995 for a description of certain environmental matters.

         Reference is made to the "Subsequent Event" reported at Note 21 to the
         Company's Consolidated Financial Statements included in the Company's
         Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1995,
         regarding the lawsuit which was filed on March 4, 1996, by GATX
         Corporation and its subsidiaries, General American Transportation
         Company ("GATC") and 314072 Canada Inc., against Hawker Siddeley Canada
         Inc. ("Hawker Siddeley"), Hawker Canada Holdings Inc. ("Hawker
         Holdings"), Procor Limited ("Procor") (a wholly-owned subsidiary of the
         Company), Marmon Holdings, Inc., and others, in the Province of
         Ontario, Canada in the Ontario Court of Justice (General Division).
         Judgment was given on April 26, 1996. The judgment determined that
         Hawker Siddeley is not entitled to dispose of its interest in CGTX Inc.
         pursuant to the agreement entered into on February 19, 1996 (whereby
         Procor agreed to make a takeover bid for all of the outstanding shares
         of Hawker Holdings immediately following the completion of a corporate
         reorganization by Hawker Siddeley pursuant to which Hawker Siddeley
         would transfer its 55% ownership in CGTX Inc. to Hawker Holdings)
         without the consent of GATC or without complying with the right of
         first refusal in favor of GATC in the Hawker Siddeley/GATC shareholders
         agreement. Procor and Hawker Siddeley are considering the judgment in
         order to determine whether or not an appeal should be commenced.
