REPORT OF INDEPENDENT AUDITORS




Benefits Committee
GATX Corporation


We have  audited the  accompanying  statements  of  financial  condition of GATX
Corporation  Salaried Employees  Retirement Savings Plan as of December 31, 1995
and 1994,  and the related  statements  of income and  changes in  participants'
equity for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 1995.  These
financial  statements  are the  responsibility  of the  Plan's  management.  Our
responsibility  is to express an opinion on these financial  statements based on
our audits.

We  conducted  our  audits  in  accordance  with  generally   accepted  auditing
standards.  Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement.  An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.  An audit also includes
assessing the  accounting  principles  used and  significant  estimates  made by
management,  as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion,  the financial  statements  referred to above present fairly, in
all material  respects,  the  financial  position of GATX  Corporation  Salaried
Employees  Retirement Savings Plan at December 31, 1995 and 1994, and the income
and  changes in  participants'  equity for each of the three years in the period
ended  December 31, 1995,  in  conformity  with  generally  accepted  accounting
principles.

The Fund Information in the statements of financial condition and the statements
of income and  changes in  participants'  equity is  presented  for  purposes of
additional  analysis  rather than to present the financial  condition and income
and changes in participants'  equity of each fund. The Fund Information has been
subjected  to the  auditing  procedures  applied  in  our  audits  of the  basic
financial  statements  and, in our  opinion,  is fairly  stated in all  material
respects in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole.

GATX CORPORATION SALARIED EMPLOYEES RETIREMENT SAVINGS PLAN

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

December 31, 1995

NOTE A--SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Investments  are  recorded  at fair  value  based on  quoted  market  prices  or
redemption value.

All  costs  and  expenses  incurred  with  regard  to the  purchase  and sale of
investments  are borne by the GATX  Corporation  Salaried  Employees  Retirement
Savings Plan (the Plan) and are included in the realized  gain (loss) on sale of
investments.  Administrative  and general  expenses are paid by GATX Corporation
(GATX or the Company).

The  preparation  of the  financial  statements  in  conformity  with  generally
accepted accounting principles necessarily requires management to make estimates
and assumptions  that affect the reported  amounts of assets and liabilities and
disclosure of  contingent  assets and  liabilities  at the date of the financial
statements as well as revenues and expenses during the reporting period.  Actual
amounts when ultimately realized could differ from those estimates.

NOTE B--DESCRIPTION OF THE PLAN

The Plan is a defined  contribution plan and was established to afford employees
an opportunity to save systematically for retirement. Effective January 1, 1995,
the Plan is open to each  eligible  salaried  employee of GATX,  and each of its
domestic subsidiaries which adopts or has adopted the Plan upon authorization by
GATX, on the first of the month following  their date of hire.  Prior to January
1, 1995,  employees  were required to complete six months of service in order to
be eligible to participate in the plan.

A participant  may  contribute to the Plan from 1% to a maximum of 15% of his or
her  compensation  as defined by the Plan.  After a  participant  completes  six
months of service, GATX and its electing subsidiaries contribute an amount up to
but not more than 50%, as  determined  from time to time by GATX,  of the amount
contributed  by each  participant  but  not to  exceed  3% of the  participant's
compensation, as defined by the Plan. Company contributions are invested in GATX
Common Stock and short-term investments.  All contributions are made in cash and
deposited  semi-monthly.  Contributions  by  participants  are  made by means of
salary deferral and employer contributions are fully vested.

After one year of  participation  in the Plan,  active  participants  may obtain
loans from the Plan. The maximum loan amount is subject to certain  restrictions
and each loan is secured by the participant's account balance.

Participants  may elect to have  their  contributions  invested  in the  Managed
Income fund (which is a  combination  of the Bankers  Trust Pyramid GIC Fund and
the Fidelity Managed Income Portfolio II Fund),  GATX Stock Fund,  Fidelity U.S.
Equity Index Portfolio Fund, Fidelity Puritan Fund, Putnam Voyager Fund, or in a
combination  of any of the funds in multiples of 10% in each fund  selected.  On
August 1, 1995, the Plan named Fidelity  Management Trust Company as trustee and
recordkeeper,  replacing Harris Bank and Trust Company.  In conjunction with the
change in

trustee, the Plan made a number of investment manager replacements.The  Fidelity
U.S.  Equity Index  Portfolio Fund replaced the Equity Fund which was managed by
Harris  Investment  Management.  The Fidelity Puritan Fund replaced the Balanced
Fund which was managed by Jennison  Associates.  The Metropolitan  Group Annuity
Contract  matured  during the year and  proceeds  were  invested in the Fidelity
Managed Income Portfolio II. Participant  balances in the  aforementioned  funds
were transferred to the Fidelity funds in August.

Also, during the year, the Plan renamed the following fund categories:

                          From                              To

The investment objectives of the above funds were not changed.

Employees participating in the Plan had invested in the available funds

As  a  result  of  a  previous  acquisition  by  GATX,  rollover  contributions,
consisting  of  shares of  common  stock of  Phillips  Petroleum  Company,  were
received  by the  Plan in  1979.  As of  December  31,  1995,  one  employee  is
participating in this Fund. Further contributions to the Fund are not allowed.

GATX  intends  this Plan to be  permanent  but reserves the right at any time to
modify,  amend,  or  terminate  this  Plan,  including  the right to  suspend or
permanently  discontinue  employer  contributions  upon 30 days prior  notice to
participants  or to reduce  (or  increase  but not to more than 50%) the rate of
such  contributions  without notice. For the years ended December 31, 1995, 1994
and 1993, GATX's contribution rate was 50%.

Should the Plan  terminate at some future date, its net assets will be available
to provide  participants  their  distributions  in proportion to their allocable
share of the Plan assets at the date of such termination.
