The number of authorized shares of common stock was increased from 40,000,000 
to 100,000,000 at the Annual Meeting of Stockholders held July 21, 1993.

Combined dividends per share for the nine months ended December 31, 1992 were 
calculated by dividing the sum of the cash dividends declared by Trinity and 
the cash dividends declared by Syro, Inc. (formerly Syro Steel Company), the 
pooled company, by the total number of common shares outstanding.  Individ-
ually, for the nine months ended December 31, 1992, Trinity's dividend was 
$0.60 per share and Syro's dividend was $0.12 per share.    

Dividends per share for the current fiscal year were $0.1333 in the first 
quarter and $0.17 per share in the second quarter and third quarter.

                                                            


The foregoing consolidated financial statements are unaudited and have been

the Registrant, all adjustments, consisting only of normal and recurring
adjustments necessary to a fair presentation of the financial position of

1992 and cash flows for the nine month periods ended December 31, 1993 and
1992, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles, have

                             December 31, 1993

Income Taxes

Effective April 1, 1993, Trinity adopted Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes."  This Statement requires
a change from the deferred to the liability method of computing income
taxes.  As permitted by Statement No. 109, Trinity has elected not to
restate the financial statements of any prior period.  The effect of the
change on pretax income for the period ended December 31, 1993 is not
material.  The cumulative effect of applying the change in accounting
method is a decrease in Trinity's deferred tax liability and a nonrecurring
credit of $7.9 million or $0.20 earnings per share.

The components of the deferred taxes at April 1, 1993 were as follows: (in
millions)

Item 2 - Management's Discussion and Analysis of Consolidated Financial     
         Condition and Statement of Operations 



                            FINANCIAL CONDITION

The increase in 'Inventories' at December 31, 1993 compared to March 31,
1993 is due primarily to the increased level of business in the Railcars
and Construction Products segments.

The increase in 'Property, plant and equipment, at cost: Excluding Leasing
Subsidiary' is due principally to certain acquisitions in the Railcars,
Marine Products, and Construction Products segments.

The increase in 'Short-term debt' is due principally to the acquisitions
stated above and to support increased levels of business.


                          Statement of Operations

                  Nine Months Ended December 31, 1993 vs.
                    Nine Months Ended December 31, 1992

'Revenues' increased in the current nine month period compared to the same
period of a year ago due primarily to increased business in the Railcars
and Construction Products segments.  The increase was offset somewhat by
decreased revenues recorded by the Marine Products segment.

Driven by the replacement market for railcars, demand continues for both
freight and tank cars and railcar related products.  Railcar segment orders
on hand increased significantly during the current quarter.  The increase
in Construction Products' 'Revenues' is due to the acquisition of certain
Texas concrete operations in fiscal 1993 and 1994 coupled with increased
demand for the Registrant's highway related products.  Although demand in
the Marine Products segment remains strong, current period comparable
'Revenues' are lower due to the completion of a significant contract in the
prior year.  

The increase in 'Operating profit' in the current period is principally due
to the improved results from the Railcars, Construction Products and
Leasing segments.  'Operating profit' for the Containers segment declined
somewhat as market conditions for large pressure vessels have become
competitive.  Marine Products segment 'Operating profit' declined modestly
due to the facts stated above, but it's 'Operating profit as a percent of
revenues' was slightly higher in the current period compared to the same
period of a year ago as market conditions improve for military and
commercial vessels.  

                 Three Months Ended December 31, 1993 vs.
                   Three Months Ended December 31, 1992

Both 'Revenues' and 'Operating profit' in the current quarter were greater
than the same quarter of a year ago due primarily to increased business in
the Railcars and Construction Products segments.  As stated above, railcar
orders during the current quarter increased significantly and
infrastructure requirements are fueling expanded production in the 
Construction Products segment.
