                    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 three months ended March 31,
     2000 and 1999, Marmon Industrial absorbed losses of $20 and $252,
     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 $8,630 at March 31, 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
- ---------------------
1st Quarter 2000 versus 1999
- ----------------------------
Service revenues increased $7.9 million primarily due to the effect of railcars
added to the lease fleet and the intermodal tank containers operations acquired
in the second quarter of 1999.

Sales revenues decreased $6.0 million primarily due to decreased sales of
railcars.


Financial Condition
- -------------------
2000 versus 1999
- ----------------
Operating activities provided $25.8 million of cash in the first quarter of
2000. These funds, along with the collection of funds advanced to parent, were
used to provide financing for railcar additions, 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 the continued expansion of the Company's business and
enable it to meet its debt service obligations.
