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

30, 1997 and 1996, in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles, have been made.





                          Trinity Industries, Inc.
                 Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
                               June 30, 1997


        Acquisitions

        On May 30, 1997, the Registrant acquired, pursuant to an asset
        purchase agreement through a wholly-owned subsidiary of the 
        Registrant, the Industrial Products Division of Ladish Co.,
        Inc., ("Ladish") a manufacturer and distributor of pipefitting, 
        flange, and valve products.


  Item 2 - Management's Discussion and Analysis of Consolidated   
           Financial Condition and Statement of Operations 
  
  
  The increase in 'Receivables' at June 30, 1997 compared to 
  March 31, 1997 is due primarily to increased business in the
  Construction Products segment from improved seasonal revenues. 
  
  Short-term debt increased due primarily to the acquisition of 
  Ladish.
  
  
                         Statement of Operations
  
                   Three Months Ended June 30, 1997 vs.
                     Three Months Ended June 30, 1996
  
  Operating profit from continuing operations in the current
  quarter increased $4.4 million, or 8.2%, compared to the same
  period last year on a slight decrease in revenues due to
  improved operating profit margins across all segments.
  
  Operating profit for the Transportation Products segment
  increased in the current three month period on lower revenues
  when compared to the prior year quarter as a result of
  improving margins attained from cost reduction programs put in
  place in prior periods.  Revenues decreased due to a reduction
  in railcar deliveries.  The replacement cycle for railcars and
  barges coupled with strong traffic on the nation's rails and
  rivers continues to drive this segment.  It is anticipated that
  these factors will continue throughout the fiscal year.
  
  Construction Products revenues and operating profit for the
  current quarter were higher due to increased governmental,
  residential, and commercial construction that utilizes the
  Company's highway guardrail and safety systems products and its
  ready-mix concrete and aggregate businesses.  The federal
  government continues to emphasize roadside safety and the
  upgrade of America's highway system to higher standards to
  reflect changes in vehicle mix.  In addition the overall
  economic outlook across industries has led to strong activity
  levels in construction markets served by the Registrant.  These
  factors should continue to provide a favorable market demand
  for the Company's construction products.  
  
  
  The Industrial Products segment's operating results are also
  higher in the current quarter as this segment continues to
  benefit from a global increase in energy and petrochemical
  demand as well as the level of housing starts in markets served
  by the Company's LPG business.

               equivalence" shall be determined using the same
               assumptions utilized under such plan.
     
               14.  The final paragraph of Section 4 of the
     Agreement is hereby amended to read as follows:

               4.A.  Whether or not the Executive becomes
               entitled to the payments under Section 4 here-
               of, if any of the payments or benefits received
               or to be received by the Executive in connec-
               tion with a Change in Control or the
               Executive's termination of employment (whether
               pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or any
               other plan, arrangement or agreement with the
               Company, any Person whose actions result in a
               Change in Control or any Person affiliated with
               the Company or such Person) (such payments or
               benefits, excluding the Gross-Up Payment, being
               hereinafter referred to as the "Total Pay-
               ments") would be subject to the excise tax im-
               posed under section 4999 of the Internal Reve-
               nue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Excise
               Tax"), the Company shall pay to the Executive
               an additional amount (the "Gross-Up Payment")
               such that the net amount retained by the Execu-
               tive, after deduction of any Excise Tax on the
               Total Payments and any federal, state and local
               income and employment taxes and Excise Tax upon
               the Gross-Up Payment, shall be equal to the
               Total Payments.  For purposes of determining
               the amount of the Gross-Up Payment, the Execu-
               tive shall be deemed to pay federal income
               taxes at the highest marginal rate of federal
               income taxation in the calendar year in which
               the Gross-Up Payment is to be made and state
               and local income taxes at the highest marginal
               rates of taxation in the state and locality of
               the residence of the Executive on the Date of
               Termination, net of the maximum reduction in
               federal income taxes which could be obtained
               from deduction of such state and local taxes. 
               All determinations made under this Section 4.A.
               shall be made by the accounting firm which
               served as the Company's auditor immediately
               prior to the Change in Control.
     
     
               IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Company has caused this
     Amendment to be executed by a duly authorized officer of
     the Company and Executive has executed this Amendment as
     of the day and year first above written.
