Item 2.        ACQUISITION OR DISPOSITION OF ASSETS

            On October 31, 1997, Ingersoll-Rand Company (the
          company), purchased all of the outstanding shares of
          capital stock of Thermo King Corporation (Thermo King)
          together with other equity interests and assets related
          to Thermo King, from Westinghouse Electric Corporation,
          for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $2.56
          billion.  Thermo King designs, manufactures and
          distributes transport temperature control systems and
          service parts for a variety of mobile applications,
          including trailers, truck bodies, sea-going containers,
          buses and light rail cars.
            
            Thermo King is headquartered in Minneapolis, Minnesota
          and has six manufacturing/assembly facilities in North
          America, and international facilities located in Ireland,
          Brazil, Germany, the Czech Republic, Denmark and, through
          majority-owned joint ventures, in Spain and China.
          Thermo King employs more than 4,700 people and
          distributes its products through a world-wide network of
          more than 850 dealers.
            
            The initial funds used to consummate the acquisition
          were obtained from the issuance of commercial paper and
          the use of approximately $100 million of available cash.
          Over the next few months, the company expects to reduce
          the outstanding commercial paper with the proceeds from
          the issuance of approximately $1.6 billion of medium-term
          debt (with maturities ranging from three to ten years)
          and $600 million of company obligated mandatorily
          redeemable preference securities of a subsidiary holding
          solely debentures of the company (an equity-linked
          security).

                   Independent Auditors' Report



To the Board of Directors of
Westinghouse Electric Corporation:


We have audited the accompanying combined balance sheets of Thermo
King (a unit of Westinghouse Electric Corporation) as of December
31, 1996 and 1995, and the related combined statements of income
and cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended
December 31, 1996. These combined financial statements are the
responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is
to express an opinion on these combined financial statements based
on our audits. We did not audit the financial statements of certain
combined entities, which statements reflect total assets
constituting 57% in 1995 and total revenues constituting 59% and
54% in 1995 and 1994, respectively, of the related combined totals.
Those statements were audited by other auditors whose reports have
been furnished to us, and our opinion, insofar as it relates to the
amounts included for these entities, is based solely on the reports
of other auditors.

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 presentations. We believe that our audits and
the reports of the other auditors provide a reasonable basis for
our opinion.

In our opinion, based on our audits and the reports of other
auditors, the combined financial statements referred to above
present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of
Thermo King as of December 31, 1996 and 1995, and the results of
its operations and cash flows for each of the years in the three-
year period ended December 31, 1996, in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles.

       (including exports).

(2)  Summary Of Significant Accounting Policies

     Basis of Presentation

       The combined financial statements of the Company include the
       accounts of Thermo King Corporation (an indirect wholly owned
       subsidiary of Westinghouse) and certain other Westinghouse
       affiliates. During the fourth quarter of 1996, the Company
       acquired Sabroe Reefer Cool, a Danish manufacturer of
       container refrigeration units for $11 million and the
       assumption of debt, and Thermal, a German manufacturer of air
       conditioning units for buses for $4 million. Both of these
       acquisitions were accounted for under the purchase method of
       accounting and the results of their operations have been
       included in the Company's results of operations since their
       acquisition.

       Unless otherwise indicated, all dollar amounts in these
       financial statements are presented in thousands. All material
       intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in
       combination.

     Revenue Recognition

       Sales are recognized primarily as products are shipped and
       services are rendered.

     Amortization of Intangible Assets

       Goodwill and other acquired intangible assets are amortized
       using the straight-line method over their estimated lives but
       not in excess of 40 years for assets acquired prior to January
       1, 1994, and not in excess of 15 years for assets acquired
       after December 31, 1993.

     Income Taxes

       Historically, the results of the Company's domestic operations
       have been included in the consolidated United States income
       tax return of Westinghouse. The results of the Company's
       foreign operations have been reported in their respective
       taxing jurisdiction along with the operations of other
       Westinghouse affiliates. The income tax-related information in
       these financial statements is presented as if the Company had
       not been eligible to be included in the consolidated tax
       returns of Westinghouse or other affiliates (i.e. the Company
       on a stand-alone basis). The recognition and measurement of
       income tax expense and deferred income taxes requires certain
       assumptions, allocations and significant estimates, which
       management believes are reasonable to measure the tax
       consequences as if the Company were a stand-alone taxpayer.
       The Company's income tax expense is determined in accordance
       with the asset and liability method of accounting for income
       taxes.

       For purposes of these financial statements, any current income
       tax liabilities are considered to have been paid by
       Westinghouse and are recorded through the invested equity
       account with Westinghouse.

     Cash and Cash Equivalents

       The Company considers all investment securities with a
       maturity of three months or less when acquired to be cash
       equivalents. All cash and temporary investments are placed
       with high credit quality financial institutions, and the
       amount of credit exposure to any one financial institution is
       limited.

     Inventories

       Inventories are stated at the lower of cost, which
       approximates actual cost on a first-in, first-out (FIFO)
       basis, or market, measured in the aggregate. The elements of
       cost included in inventories are direct labor, direct
       material, and certain overheads including factory
       depreciation.

     Plant and Equipment

       Plant and equipment assets are recorded at cost and
       depreciated over their estimated useful lives. Depreciation is
       generally computed on the straight-line method based on useful
       lives of 27.5 to 60 years for buildings, 20 years for land
       improvements, 3 to 10 years for office equipment, and 3 to 12
       years for machinery and transportation equipment. Leasehold
       improvements are amortized over the terms of the respective
       leases. Expenditures for additions and improvements are
       capitalized, and costs for repairs and maintenance are charged
       to operations as incurred.

     Foreign Exchange

       A substantial portion of the Company's international sales are
       denominated in foreign currencies (primarily those of Western
       Europe). In order to manage foreign currency risks, the
       Company evaluates its procurement opportunities in local
       currency and enters into average rate basket options to cover
       the net exposure on anticipated cash flows. Realized and
       unrealized gains and losses on these contracts are included in
       the determination of net income. The notional value of these
       contracts at December 31, 1996, was $22 million. No contracts
       existed at December 31, 1995.

       As discussed in note 12, the Company purchases a significant
       component of its trailer and certain of its truck products
       from vendors in Japan. The exchange rate on the purchase
       commitments from one of these vendors is set at the time the
       Company enters into the purchase commitment.

       Assets and liabilities of foreign operations are translated at
       the rate of exchange in effect on the balance sheet date;
       revenue and expenses are translated at the average exchange
       rates in effect during the year. The resulting translation
       adjustments are reflected in the cumulative foreign currency
       translation adjustments in invested equity. Financial results
       of foreign operations in countries with highly inflationary
       economies are translated using a combination of current and
       historical exchange rates and any translation adjustments are
       included in earnings along with transaction gains and losses
       for the period.

     Estimates

       The preparation of financial statements in conformity with
       generally accepted accounting principles requires management
       to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported
       amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of
       contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
       statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses
       during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from
       those estimates. On an ongoing basis, management reviews its
       estimates, including those related to product warranty,
       pensions, and income taxes, based on currently available
       information. Changes in facts and circumstances may result in
       revised estimates.


     Impairment of Long-lived Assets and Long-lived Assets to be
     Disposed Of

       During the first quarter of 1996, the Company adopted
       Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 121
       Accounting for the Impairment of Long-lived Assets and for
       Long-lived Assets to be Disposed Of. The adoption of SFAS 121
       did not have a material effect on the results of operations.

       Subsequent to the acquisition of an intangible or other long-
       lived asset, the Company continually evaluates whether later
       events and circumstances indicate the remaining estimated
       useful life of that asset may warrant revision or that the
       remaining carrying value of such an asset may not be
       recoverable. If definitive cash flows are not available for a
       specific intangible or other long-lived asset, the Company
       evaluates recoverability of the specific business to which the
       asset relates. When factors indicate that an intangible or
       other long-lived asset should be evaluated for possible
       impairment, the Company uses an estimate of the related
       asset's undiscounted future cash flows over the remaining life
       of that asset in measuring recoverability. If such an analysis
       indicates that impairment has in fact occurred, the Company
       writes down the book value of the intangible or other long-
       lived asset to its fair value.

     Disclosure about Fair Value of Financial Instruments

       The carrying amount of the Company's financial instruments, consisting
       of cash and cash equivalents, short-term and long-term debt, approximate
       fair value due to their short maturity and variable interest rate
       features. The fair value of foreign exchange contracts is based on
       quoted market prices to terminate the contracts. At December 31, 1996
       and 1995, the unrealized gain on these contracts was $440 and zero,
       respectively.

(3)   Related Party Transactions

       The Company is charged directly for the cost of certain
       services that Westinghouse provides to its business units and
       subsidiaries. These services can include information systems
       support and certain accounting functions, such as transaction
       processing, legal services, environmental affairs and human
       resources. Westinghouse centrally develops, negotiates, and
       administers the Company's insurance programs. The insurance
       includes broad all-risk coverage for real and personal
       property and third-party liability coverage, employer's
       liability coverage, automobile liability, general product
       liability, and other standard liability coverage. Westinghouse
       also maintains a program of self-insurance for workers'
       compensation in the U.S. Westinghouse charges its business
       units for all of the centrally administered insurance programs
       based in part on claims history. Specific liabilities for
       general and product liability, automobile and workers'
       compensation claims are included in the Company's financial
       statements.

       All of the charges for the corporate services described above
       are based on costs which directly relate to the Company or on
       a pro rata portion of Westinghouse's total costs for the
       services provided, on a basis that management believes is
       reasonable. However, management believes it is possible that
       the costs of these transactions may differ from those that
       would result from transactions among unrelated parties. For
       the years ended December 31, 1996, 1995, and 1994, charges for
       such services were approximately $14,300, $13,900, and
       $13,700, respectively.

       Employees of the Company also participate in various
       Westinghouse-sponsored employee benefit plans (see note 4).

       Westinghouse does not charge its divisions for the carrying
       costs related to its investment in such units (invested
       equity). Therefore, the Company's results of operations for
       each of the periods presented do not include any allocated
       interest charges from Westinghouse, and no portion of
       Westinghouse's debt is specifically related to the operations
       of the Company.

(4)   Employee Benefit Plans

       Substantially all the Company's employees are covered by
       defined benefit pension plans sponsored by the Company and
       Westinghouse. Most plan benefits are based on either years of
       service and compensation levels at the time of retirement or a
       formula based on career earnings. Pension benefits are paid
       primarily from trusts funded by Westinghouse and employee
       contributions. Westinghouse funds its qualified U.S. pension
       plans at amounts equal to or greater than the minimum funding
       requirements of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act
       (ERISA) of 1974. Substantially all plan assets are invested in
       equity and fixed income securities.

       Included in the following tables are the net periodic pension
       costs and funded status of the plans covering current and
       former employees of the Company. For purposes of preparing
       these financial statements, estimates were made of the assets
       and pension obligations for Company employees who participated
       in plans sponsored by Westinghouse. The plan assets have been
       allocated on a method that management believes would be in
       accordance with applicable ERISA requirements.

       Based on the requirements of SFAS No. 87, Employers'
       Accounting for Pensions, the Company adjusts the discount rate
       to reflect current and expected-to-be available interest rates
       on high quality fixed income investments at the end of each
       year.

       The following table sets forth the funded status of the
       defined benefit plans and amounts recognized in the Company's
       balance sheet at December 31, 1996 and 1995:

     Pension liability included                  
       in combined balance sheet $  (41,601)       (65,418)

       The Company participates in a Westinghouse-sponsored non-
       qualified supplemental pension plan that provides additional
       benefits to certain executives. For financial reporting
       purposes, this plan is treated as a non-funded pension plan.
       The unfunded accumulated benefit obligation under this plan
       included in the table above at December 31, 1996 and 1995, was
       $5,500 and $6,300, respectively.

       For financial reporting purposes, a pension plan is considered
       unfunded when the fair value of plan assets is less than the
       accumulated benefit obligation. When that is the case, a
       minimum pension liability is recognized for the sum of the
       unfunded amount plus any prepaid pension cost. In recognizing
       such a liability, an intangible asset is usually recorded up
       to the sum of the prior service cost not yet recognized and
       the unrecognized transition obligation. When the liability to
       be recognized is greater than the intangible asset limit, a
       charge is made to shareholders' equity for the difference, net
       of any tax effects.

       At December 31, 1996, a minimum pension liability of $21,132
       was recognized for the sum of the unfunded amount of $41,601
       less the accrued pension cost of $20,469. A charge to invested
       equity of $21,132 was reduced to $13,736 due to deferred tax
       effects of $7,396. As a result of the year-end 1996
       remeasurement, invested equity was increased by $16,550 from
       December 31, 1995.

       At December 31, 1995, a minimum pension liability of $46,593
       was recognized for the sum of the unfunded amount of $65,418
       less the accrued pension cost of $18,825. A charge to invested
       equity of $46,593 was reduced to $30,286 due to deferred tax
       effects of $16,307. As a result of the year-end 1995
       remeasurement, invested equity was decreased by $7,371 from
       December 31, 1994.

       The Company also participates in a Westinghouse-sponsored
       postretirement plan that provides defined medical, dental, and
       life insurance benefits for eligible retirees and dependents.

       Included in the following tables are the net periodic
       postretirement benefit costs and funded status of the plans
       covering current and former employees of the Company. For
       purposes of preparing these financial statements, estimates
       were made of the plan obligations of Company employees who
       participated in the Westinghouse-sponsored plan.

       The components of net periodic postretirement benefit cost
       follow:

       obligations are shown below:

                                         At December 31
                                   1996      1995       1994

      *At December 31, 1996, the rate was assumed to decrease
       ratably to 6% in 2004, decrease to 5.75% in 2005 and
       remain at that level thereafter. At December 31, 1995,
       the rate was assumed to decrease ratably to 5% in 2006,
       decrease to 4.75% in 2007 and remain at that level
       thereafter. At December 31, 1994, the rate was assumed
       to decrease ratably to 6.5% in 2003, and remain at that
       level thereafter.

       Net periodic postretirement benefit cost is determined using
       the assumptions as of the beginning of the year.  The funded
       status is determined using the assumptions as of the end of
       the year.


       The funded status and amounts recognized in the Company's
       balance sheet at December 31, 1996 and 1995, were as follows:

                                               At December 31
                                               1996       1995
                                                 
      Accumulated postretirement                       
      benefit obligation:
       Retirees                         $  (10,600)    (12,100)
       Fully eligible, active plan                     
        participants                        (1,500)     (1,700)
       Other active plan participants      (13,900)    (15,800) 
      Total accumulated postretirement                 
             benefit obligation            (26,000)    (29,600)
                                                 
      Unrecognized net loss                  3,900       9,000
      Unrecognized prior service                       
        benefit                             (2,300)     (2,900)
      Plan assets at fair value                300         200
                                                 
      Accrued postretirement                      
              benefit cost              $  (24,100)    (23,300)

       The funded assets consist primarily of interest-bearing
       securities. The effect of a 1% annual increase in the assumed
       health care cost trend rates would increase the accumulated
       postretirement benefit obligation by approximately $572 and
       would increase net periodic postretirement benefit cost by
       approximately $79.

       Certain of the Company's non-U.S. subsidiaries have private
       and government-sponsored plans for postretirement benefits.
       The cost for these plans is not significant to the Company.

       The Company provides certain postemployment benefits to former
       or inactive employees and their dependents during the time
       period following employment but before retirement. At December
       31, 1996 and 1995, the Company's liability for postemployment
       benefits totaled $1,000.


(5)   Income Taxes

       Thermo King is included in the consolidated federal income tax
       return of Westinghouse Electric Corporation. Income taxes are
       provided as if the Company had filed its return on a separate
       company basis. Valuation allowances related to deferred tax
       assets are evaluated based on management's assessment of the
       recoverability of the deferred tax assets on a separate
       company basis. It is the opinion of management that no
       valuation allowance is necessary at December 31, 1996 and
       1995, related to the deferred tax assets of the Company.

       The components of income tax expense (benefit) at December 31,
       1996, 1995 and 1994 are as follows:

                                          Year ended December 31
                                         1996        1995      1994

         Foreign                        7,836       6,670     5,060
           Total current income                            
               tax expense             38,476      30,728    28,267

           Total deferred income                           
              tax expense (benefit)    (1,057)      4,861    (4,040)
                                                     
         Total income tax                               
             expense                 $ 37,419      35,589    24,227

       The foreign portion of income before taxes was $65,308,
       $58,997, and $35,990, respectively, for 1996, 1995, and 1994.
       This income resulted from profits and losses generated from
       foreign operations. At December 31, 1996, cumulative
       undistributed earnings from foreign subsidiaries were $195
       million. These undistributed foreign earnings are deemed to be
       permanently reinvested and, therefore, no deferred taxes have
       been recognized. It is not practical to estimate the amount of
       taxes that may become payable if such earnings were remitted.

       A substantial portion of the foreign income before taxes is
       generated through manufacturing operations in Ireland. Under
       Irish tax laws, the Company receives permanent tax relief
       afforded to Irish manufacturers.

       Income before taxes includes income of certain manufacturing
       operations in Puerto Rico, which are eligible for tax credits
       against U.S. federal income tax and partially exempt from
       Puerto Rican income tax under grants of industrial tax
       exemptions. These tax exemptions provided net tax benefits of
       $13,161 in 1996, $14,588 in 1995, and $14,361 in 1994. The
       exemptions expire at various dates from 2002 through 2007.

       Deferred income taxes result from U.S. temporary differences
       in the financial bases and tax bases of assets and
       liabilities. The types of differences that give rise to
       significant portions of deferred income tax liabilities are
       shown in the following table:

       accumulated amortization of $4,732 at December 31, 1996, and
       $3,656 at December 31, 1995. The increase in goodwill in 1996
       is primarily attributable to the acquisitions of Sabroe Reefer
       Cool and Thermal (see note 2).

(9)  Short-term Debt

       At December 31, 1996 and 1995, the Company had outstanding

(12)  Commitments and Contingencies

       The Company is involved in various litigation matters in the
       ordinary course of business. In the opinion of management, the
       ultimate resolution of such matters will not result in
       judgments which, in the aggregate, would materially affect the
       Company's financial position.

       In the ordinary course of business, standby letters of credit
       and surety bonds are issued on behalf of the Company. At
       December 31, 1996, the Company had $8,533 outstanding under
       such obligations. Additionally, the Company's commitments for
       the purchase of plant and equipment at December 31, 1996,
       totaled $2,276.

       The Company sources all of the diesel engines that constitute
       a significant component of its trailer and certain of its
       truck products from two primary vendors in Japan. The products
       in which these engines are used account for the majority of
       the Company's sales. While the Company believes that it could
       locate alternative sources for these components in the event
       that its relationship with these suppliers were disrupted, the
       delays and costs associated with such a change would have a
       short-term adverse impact on the Company's operations.
       Historically, the Company has entered into long-term
       agreements with these vendors to attempt to ensure a reliable
       source of supply. At December 31, 1996, the Company had under
       such agreements commitments to purchase $51,854 through
       September 1997.

(13)  Leases

       The Company has commitments under operating leases for certain
       machinery and equipment and facilities used in various
       operations. Rental expense in 1996, 1995, and 1994 was $4,606,
       $4,190, and $3,961, respectively. These amounts include
       immaterial amounts for contingent rentals and sublease income.

       Minimum rental payments:

(14)  Restructuring

       In 1996, the Company recorded a charge to operating profit of
       $5,587 relating to the closure of a manufacturing facility in
       the United Kingdom and exiting the heavy rail business. The
       majority of this charge relates to the costs of separating
       employees.

       The following is a reconciliation of the restructuring
       liability:

(15) Segment Information

       The Company operates principally in one industry segment that
       includes the design, manufacture, and distribution of
       transport temperature control equipment. The Company does not
       derive more than 10% of its total revenue from any single
       customer. The following table presents certain financial
       information based on the geographic area where the sale
       originated:

(16) Events (Unaudited) Subsequent to the Date of the Report of
     the Independent Auditor

       On September 15, 1997, Westinghouse signed a definitive
       agreement to sell the Company to Ingersoll-Rand Company for
       $2.56 billion in cash and the assumption of approximately $42
       million in pension liabilities. The transaction is expected to
       close during the fourth quarter of 1997 upon receipt of
       regulatory approvals.


                        INGERSOLL-RAND COMPANY
                        THERMO KING CORPORATION
            INTRODUCTION TO PRO FORMA FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                   
                                   
                                   
               On October 31, 1997, Ingersoll-Rand Company (the
     company), purchased all of the outstanding shares of capital
     stock of Thermo King Corporation (Thermo King) together with
     other equity interests and assets related to Thermo King, from
     Westinghouse Electric Corporation, for an aggregate purchase
     price of approximately $2.56 billion.  Thermo King designs,
     manufactures and distributes transport temperature control
     systems and service parts for a variety of mobile applications,
     including trailers, truck bodies, sea-going containers, buses
     and light rail cars.

               The purchase price, of approximately $2.56 billion,
     for the common stock of Thermo King has been preliminarily
     allocated to tangible and identifiable assets and liabilities of
     Thermo King based upon estimates of their respective values.
     These allocations will be subsequently adjusted based upon
     appraisals, valuations and other studies which will be conducted
     over the next several months; such final values may differ
     substantially from those shown herein.

               The pro forma financial statements should be read in
     conjunction with the Company's and Thermo King's historical
     financial statements.  The pro forma information presented is
     for informational purposes only and it is not necessarily
     indicative of future earnings or financial position or of what
     the earnings and financial position would have been had the
     Company's acquisition of Thermo King been consummated at the
     beginning of the respective periods or as of the date for which
     such pro forma financial information is presented.
