                    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.

     On September 1, 2000, the Company acquired Marmon/Keystone Corporation, a
     company under common control, through a capital contribution from Marmon
     Holdings. Marmon/Keystone Corporation is a leading distributor of carbon
     steel, stainless steel, aluminum and nickel tubular products among other
     products. The acquisition has been accounted for on an "as if pooled" basis
     and, accordingly, the accompanying financial statements include the
     financial positions, results of operations, and cash flows of the combined
     companies for all periods presented.

     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 nine months ended September
     30, 2000 and 1999, Marmon Industrial absorbed a gain of $1,097 and a loss
     of $470, respectively.

                                      -6-

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 $8,700 at September 30, 2000 and $9,100 at December 31, 1999.

7.   In September 2000, EXSIF Worldwide, Inc. ("EWI"), an indirect majority-
     owned subsidiary of the Company, purchased the intermodal tank container
     leasing business of Transamerica Leasing, Inc., for approximately $264,000.
     In addition to the purchase price paid for the assets acquired, EWI assumed
     the seller's operating leases with its customers, agreements under which
     the seller managed equipment for or leased equipment from third parties,
     and certain of the seller's operating liabilities. The acquisition has been
     accounted for using the purchase method and the Company is in the process
     of finalizing the purchase price allocation to the assets acquired and
     liabilities assumed. No pro forma information is disclosed as the
     acquisition is below the required threshold for such disclosure.

     In September 2000, EWI issued $180,000 principal amount of Senior Secured
     Notes to finance a portion of the purchase price of the acquisition.
     Interest on the notes is payable semiannually on April 1 and October 1,
     commencing April 1, 2001 at the rate of 7.68% per annum. Principal is
     payable annually commencing on October 1, 2001 and continuing until
     maturity on October 1, 2015. The notes are secured by tank container assets
     with a total purchase price of approximately $240,000. Payment of the notes
     has been guaranteed by the Company.

     In September 2000, Worldwide Containers, Inc. ("WCI"), a majority-owned
     subsidiary of the Company, received a capital contribution from an
     affiliate consisting of a $43,400 demand note of an affiliate of the
     Company and 20% of the capital stock of Webb Wheel Products, Inc., another
     affiliate of the Company, in exchange for approximately 15.1% of the
     capital stock of WCI. WCI also received a capital contribution from an
     affiliate consisting of a 20% limited partnership interest in Rail Car
     Associates Limited Partnership from an affiliate in exchange for
     approximately 4.2% of the capital stock of the WCI. These noncash
     transactions have been excluded from the consolidated statement of cash
     flows.

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

Results of Operations
---------------------
3rd Quarter 2000 versus 1999
----------------------------
Service revenues increased $10.3 million primarily due to the effects of
railcars added to the lease fleet ($3.7 million) and the intermodal tank
container operations ($5.5 million) acquired in September 2000.

Sales revenues decreased $8.0 million primarily due to reduced sales of railcars
($31.2 million) offset by increased sulphur service processing plant sales
($11.4 million) and increased sales of metal pipe and tubing products ($9.0
million).

Income taxes decreased due to an enacted change in the Canadian tax rates and
its impact on deferred taxes.


Nine Months 2000 versus 1999
----------------------------
Service revenues increased $23.3 million primarily due to the effects of
railcars added to the lease fleet ($9.2 million) and the intermodal tank
container operations ($5.5 million) acquired in September 2000. The remaining
increase came from contract switching services operations ($2.3 million) and
sulphur service processing operations ($3.6 million).

Sales revenues decreased $12.8 million primarily due to reduced sales of
railcars ($56.1 million) offset by increased sulphur service processing plant
sales ($11.2 million) and increased sales of metal pipe and tubing products
($29.6 million).


Financial Condition
-------------------
2000 versus 1999
----------------

Operating activities provided $163.8 million of cash in the first nine 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, pay
dividends to the Company's stockholder, service borrowed debt obligations, and
fund an acquisition.

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.
