REPORT OF INDEPENDENT AUDITORS


Benefits Committee
GATX Corporation


We have  audited the  accompanying  statements  of  financial  condition of GATX
Logistics, Inc. Cash Accumulation Plan as of December 31, 1996 and 1995, and the
related  statement  of income and changes in  participants'  equity for the year
ended December 31, 1996. 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  Logistics,  Inc. Cash
Accumulation  Plan as of December 31, 1996 and 1995,  and the income and changes
in participants'  equity for the year ended December 31, 1996 in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles.

Our audit was  performed  for the  purpose  of  forming  an opinion on the basic
financial statements taken as a whole. The accompanying  supplemental  schedules
of reportable transactions for the year ended December 31, 1996, and assets held
for  investment  as of December 31, 1996 and 1995,  is presented for purposes of
complying with the Department of Labor's Rule and  Regulations for reporting and
disclosure  under the Employee  Retirement  Income Security Act of 1974, and are
not a required part of the basic financial  statements.  The fund information in
the statement of financial  condition and the statement 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  supplemental  schedules and fund information have been
subjected  to the  auditing  procedures  applied  in  our  audits  of the  basic
financial  statements  and, in our  opinion,  are fairly  stated in all material
respects in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole.

                                             
                                                            ERNST & YOUNG LLP

                   GATX Logistics, Inc. Cash Accumulation Plan

                          Notes to Financial Statements
                                December 31, 1996



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   Logistics,   Inc.  (the  Company)  Cash
Accumulation  Plan (the Plan) and are  included in the  realized  gain (loss) on
sale  of  investments.  Administrative  and  general  expenses  are  paid by the
participants of the Plan.

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 form those estimates.

NOTE B - DESCRIPTION OF THE PLAN

The  Plan is a  defined  contribution  plan  subject  to the  provisions  of the
Employment  Income Security Act of 1974 as amended (ERISA),  and was established
to afford employees an opportunity to save  systematically  for retirement.  The
Plan  covers  all  employees  of the  Company  who  have  completed  one year of
employment  with at least  1,000  hours of service  and are at least  twenty-one
years of age.

A participant  may  contribute to the Plan from 1% to a maximum of 16% of his or
her compensation as defined by the Plan. The Company contributes to the Plan for
each  participant  who is an active  employee  as of the end of each  month,  an
amount equal to the participant  contribution made for such month which does not
exceed 4% of the participant's basic wages or salary.

An eligible  participant  may elect to have the Company  deposit  amounts to the
Plan on his or her behalf through the execution of salary  reduction  agreements
as  provided  under  section  401(k)  of  the  Internal  Revenue  Code  and  its
regulations.   Participant   contributions  can  range  from  1%  to  16%  of  a
participant's  compensation  but cannot  exceed the limit ($9,500 for the fiscal
year  ended  December  31,  1996) on  elective  deferrals  according  to section
402(g)(1) of the Internal Revenue Code.

An  employee  or  beneficiary  will be fully  vested in the  Company's  matching
contributions  upon  completion of one of the  following:  1) completion of four
years of service,  2) a normal  retirement or disability,  or 3) in the event of
death.  If employment  terminates  prior to completion of four years of service,
then the Company's  match will be partially  vested based on years of service as
follows:  less than two years - 0%,  two to four  years - 50% and four or more -
100%.

Upon   termination  of  employment,   disability  or  death,  a  participant  or
beneficiary  may elect to receive either a lump-sum equal to the value of his or
her account,  or equal monthly,  quarterly,  or semi-annual  installments over a
period not to exceed ten years.

Participants  may  elect to have  their  contributions  invested  in the  Putnam
Voyager Fund, Managed Income Portfolio II, Puritan Fund, US Equity Index, Equity
Income, GATX Common Stock, Dreyfus New Leaders,  Templeton Foreign Fund, or in a
combination of any of the funds in multiples of 5% in each fund selected.

Active participants may obtain loans from the Plan at any time. The maximum loan
amount is  subject  to  certain  restrictions  and each loan is  secured  by the
participant's account balance.

Each  month  each   participant's   contribution  and  the  Company's   matching
contribution  is credited to each  participant's  account.  Investment  gains or
losses (realized and unrealized) are allocated, based on previous business day's
quoted market prices, to each participant's  account in the proportion that each
participant's account bears to the total of all account balances.

Employees  participating  in the Plan had  invested  in the  available  funds as
follows (some having invested in more than one fund):

The Company 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.  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.

NOTE D - FEDERAL INCOME TAX STATUS

The Internal Revenue Service has issued a favorable  determination letter of the
Plan's status under Sections  401(a) and 401(k) of the Internal  Revenue Code of
1986,  as  amended,  (the  Code),  and is,  therefore,  not subject to tax under
present income tax laws.  Amounts  distributed  from the Plan are taxable to the
participants or their  beneficiaries as provided by Section 402 (a) of the Code.
Once  qualified,  the Plan is required to operate in conformity with the code to
maintain its tax-exempt  status. The administrator is not aware of any course of
action or series of events that have  occurred that might  adversely  affect the
Plan's qualified status.
