                            September 30, 1994

Income Taxes

Effective April 1, 1993, Trinity adopted Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes."  This Statement required
a change from the deferred to the liability method of computing income
taxes.  As permitted by Statement No. 109, Trinity elected not to restate
the financial statements of any prior period.  The effect of the change on
pretax income for the period ended September 30, 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 deferred liabilities and assets at April 1, 1993 follow:
(in millions)

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



                            FINANCIAL CONDITION

The increase in 'Property, plant and equipment, at cost: Excluding Leasing
Subsidiary' at September 30, 1994 compared to March 31, 1994 is due
principally to certain acquisitions in the Construction Products, Marine
Products, and Metal Components segments.


                          Statement of Operations

                  Six Months Ended September 30, 1994 vs.
                    Six Months Ended September 30, 1993

'Revenues' increased in the current six month period compared to the same
period of a year ago due primarily to increased business in the Railcars,
Marine Products, Containers, and Leasing segments.  'Revenues' for the
Construction Products and Metal Components segments were approximately the
same for both periods.

The replacement market for railcars and marine products continues to
contribute to the increase in demand for freight cars, tank cars, barges,
and marine vessels.  During the current period, record orders were booked
for railcars and related products.  The benefits from these orders will be
seen in future quarters.  'Revenues' in the Containers segment increased
due primarily to higher demand for LPG containers due to the improvement in
the residential housing industry.  Current period Leasing segment
'Revenues' are higher primarily due to the sales of selected car types
previously for lease.  Construction Products segment business is expected
to improve as spending increases to meet the country's continuing need for
infrastructure repair and replacement. 

The increase in 'Operating profit' in the current period is principally due
to the improved results from the Railcars segment.  Construction Products
segment 'Operating profit' declined modestly due to the reason stated above
regarding a prior year passenger loading bridge contract.  


                 Three Months Ended September 30, 1994 vs.
                   Three Months Ended September 30, 1993

'Revenues' and 'Operating profit' are higher for the current quarter
compared to the same quarter from a year ago due to increased business in
the Railcars, Containers, and Leasing segments.
