                    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 LLC ("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 1999 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

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

     The 2000 interim results presented herein are not necessarily indicative of
     the results of operations for the full year 2000.

3.   As more fully described in the Company's 1999 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, 2000
     and 1999, Marmon Industrial absorbed gains of $544 and $187, respectively.

6.   The Company's foreign subsidiaries periodically 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 $5,660 at June 30, 2000 and $9,100 at December 31, 1999.

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

Results of Operations
---------------------
2nd Quarter 2000 versus 1999
----------------------------
Service revenues increased $4.3 million primarily due to the effects of railcars
added to the lease fleet. The remaining increase came from contract switching
services operations and sulphur service processing operations.

Sales revenues decreased $19.4 million primarily due to reduced sales of
railcars.



Six Months 2000 versus 1999
---------------------------
Service revenues increased $12.2 million primarily due to the effects of
railcars added to the lease fleet. The remaining increase came from contract
switching services operations, sulphur service processing operations, and the
intermodal tank containers operations acquired in the second quarter of 1999.

Sales revenues decreased $25.4 million primarily due to reduced sales of
railcars.


Financial Condition
-------------------
2000 versus 1999
----------------
Operating activities provided $113.2 million of cash in the first six months of
2000. These funds, along with the proceeds from the issuance of debt and
sale-leaseback transactions, were used to provide for railcar additions, advance
funds to parent, pay dividends to the Company's stockholder, and service
borrowed debt obligations.

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

ITEM 3.  QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

At June 30, 2000, there has been no significant change to the Company's exposure
to market risk since December 31, 1999.

                          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,
         1999 for a description of certain environmental matters.

Item 5.  Other Information

         On July 11, 2000, a majority owned subsidiary (the "Acquirer") of the
         Company entered into an agreement to purchase the intermodal tank
         container leasing business of Transamerica Leasing, Inc. In addition to
         the purchase price to be paid for the assets being acquired, the
         Acquirer will assume the seller's operating leases with its customers,
         agreements under which the seller manages equipment for or leases
         equipment from third parties and certain of the seller's operating
         liabilities. The transaction is expected to close during the third
         quarter of fiscal 2000. In order to enable the Company to absorb the
         business being acquired and maintain its financial strength, Marmon
         Industrial, the Company's sole stockholder, intends to contribute
         additional capital to the Company.

Item 6.  Exhibits and Reports on Form 8-K

     b.  No report on Form 8-K was filed during the quarter ended June 30, 2000.
