                     ALLIED HOLDINGS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
             Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

Note 1. Basis of Presentation

        The unaudited consolidated financial statements included herein have
        been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities
        and Exchange Commission.  Accordingly, they do not include all of the
        information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting
        principles for complete financial statements.  The statements contained
        herein reflect all adjustments, all of which are of a normal, recurring
        nature, which are, in the opinion of management, necessary to present
        fairly the financial condition, results of operations and cash flows
        for the periods presented.  Operating results for the three month
        period ended March 31, 1996 are not necessarily indicative of the
        results that may be expected for the year ended December 31, 1996.  The
        interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the
        financial statements and notes thereto of Allied Holdings, Inc. and
        Subsidiaries, (the "Company") included in the Company's 1995 Annual
        Report on Form 10-K.

Note 2. Reclassifications

        Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform with the
        current year presentation.

Note 3. Long-Term Debt

        In February 1996, the Company issued $40 million of senior
        subordinated notes through a private placement.  Proceeds from the
        senior subordinated notes were used to reduce borrowings outstanding
        under the Company's $130 million revolving credit facility.   In
        connection with the issuance of the notes, the Company refinanced its
        revolving credit facility and recorded a $935,000 extraordinary loss,
        net of income taxes, during the first quarter of 1996 related to the
        extinguishment of debt.

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

    RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

        Revenues were $93.4 million in the first quarter of 1996, compared to
        $101.1 million for the same period in 1995, a decrease of 7.6%. The
        decline in revenues during 1996 versus 1995 was primarily due to a
        decrease of approximately 6% in the number of vehicles delivered by the
        Company.  The number of vehicles the Company delivers is directly
        impacted by U.S. and Canada's car and light truck production and sales;
        new vehicle production at the Company's two largest customers decreased
        approximately 7% from the first quarter of 1995.

        Net income was $360,000 during the first quarter of 1996, versus $2.1
        million during the first quarter of 1995, or $0.05 per share in 1996,
        versus $0.27 per share in 1995, (excluding a $935,000 extraordinary
        loss on the early extinguishment of debt recorded during the first
        quarter of 1996).  In addition to being impacted by an overall decline
        in revenues, net income during the first quarter of 1996 was also
        affected by the following factors.  First, the strike at a number of
        General Motors' manufacturing plants interrupted the Company's ability
        to transport vehicles from the General Motors' manufacturing plants it
        serves as well as from its rail ramps.  Allied estimated that this
        adversely impacted earnings by approximately $0.05 per share due to
        decreased revenues and inefficiencies caused by the disruption in
        business.  The Company was also impacted by a sharp rise in diesel fuel
        prices which increased approximately 8% from the first quarter of 1995
        to the first quarter of 1996, reducing earnings by approximately $0.04
        per share.  In addition, the disruption in business caused by the
        severe winter weather during the first quarter of 1996 resulted in
        increased costs and lost efficiencies.

        Salaries, wages and fringe benefits increased from 51.4% of
        revenues for the first three months of 1995 to 54.2% of revenues for
        the first three months of 1996.  This increase as a percentage of
        revenues is primarily due to inefficiencies and increased costs
        resulting from the General Motors' strike and the severe winter weather
        during the first quarter of 1996.

        Depreciation and amortization expense for the first quarter of 1995     
        increased from 6.1% of revenues to 6.9% of revenues for the first
        quarter of 1996 mainly due to the acquisition of additional rigs
        together with the additional goodwill amortization resulting from the
        acquisition of Auto Haulaway.

FINANCIAL CONDITION, LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

        Net cash provided by operating activities totaled $5,375,000 for the
        three months ended March 31, 1996 versus net cash provided by operating
        activities of $6,113,000 for the same period in 1995.  This decrease in
        cash flows from operations is mainly due to the reduction in net income
        from the first quarter of 1995 to the first quarter of 1996.

        Net cash used in investing activities totaled $6,222,000 for the three
        months ended March 31, 1996 versus $3,005,000 for the same period in
        1995. This increase was primarily due to an increase in the number of
        new rigs that were acquired.

        Net cash used in financing activities totaled $2,301,000 for the three
        months ended March 31, 1996 versus net cash used in financing
        activities of $3,753,000 for the same period in 1995.  During the first
        quarter of 1995, the company repaid $3,875,000 of long-term debt.
        During the first quarter of 1996, the company issued $40,000,000 of
        senior subordinated notes, the proceeds of which were used to repay
        long-term debt.  During the first quarter of 1996, $41,699,000 of 
        long-term debt was repaid.

    SEASONALITY AND INFLATION

        The Company generally experiences its highest revenues during the
        fourth quarter of each calendar year due to the shipment of new
        automobile models which are manufactured during this quarter.  During
        the past three years, inflation has not affected the Company's results
        of operations.
