Various financial information concerning the Registrant's
industry segments for each of the last three fiscal years is included in
the Registrant's 19951996 Annual Report to Stockholders on page 22 under the
heading "Segment Information", and such section is incorporated herein by
reference.
Railcars. The Registrant manufactures railroad freight cars,
principally pressure and non- pressure tank cars, hopper cars, intermodal
cars and gondola cars used for transporting a wide variety of liquids,
gases and dry cargo. Tank cars transport products such as liquefied
petroleum gas, liquid fertilizer, sulfur, sulfuric acids and corn syrup.
Covered hopper cars carry cargo such as grain, dry fertilizer, plastic
pellets and cement. Open-top hoppers haul coal, and top-loading gondola
cars transport a variety of heavy bulk commodities such as scrap metals,
finished flat steel products, machinery and lumber. Intermodal cars
transport various products which have been loaded in containers to
minimize shipping costs.
Marine Products. The Registrant manufactures a variety of
marine products pursuant to customer orders. It produces various types
of vessels for offshore service including supply, crew, fishing and other
types of boats. The Registrant is currently constructing various
military vessels for both the United States Army and Navy. The Registrant
produces river hopper barges which are used to carry coal, grain and
miscellaneous commodities. The purchasers of the Registrant's marine
products include inland waterway marine operators, offshore oil and gas
drillers and operators, international ocean transportation companies,
barge transport companies and domestic and foreign governmental
authorities.
Construction Products. The construction products manufactured
by the Registrant include beams, girders, columns, highway guard rail and
highway safety devices and related barrier products, ready-mix concrete
and aggregates, passenger loading bridges, and baggage handling systems.
These products are used in the bridge, highway construction and building
industries and airports. Some of the sales of beams, girders and columns
are to general contractors and subcontractors on highway construction
projects. Generally, customers for highway guardrail and highway safety
devices are highway departments or subcontractors on highway projects.
Passenger loading bridges and conveyor systems are generally sold to
contractors, airports, or airlines as part of airport terminal
equipment. Ready-mix concrete and aggregates are used in the building
and foundation industry, and customers include primarily owners,
contractors and sub-contractors.sub- contractors.
Containers. The Registrant is engaged in manufacturing metal
containers consisting of extremely large, heavy pressure vessels and
other heavy welded products, including industrial silencers,
desalinators, evaporators, and gas processing systems for the storage and
transportation of liquefied petroleum ("LP") gas and anhydrous ammonia
fertilizer. Pressure LP gas containers are utilized at industrial
plants, utilities, small businesses and in suburban and rural areas for
residential heating and cooking needs. Fertilizer containers are
manufactured for highway and rail transport, bulk storage, farm storage
and the application and distribution of anhydrous ammonia. The
Registrant also makes heat transfer equipment for the chemical, petroleum
and petrochemical industries and a complete line of custom vessels,
standard steam jacketed kettles, mix cookers, and custom-fabricated
cooking vessels for the food, meat, dairy, pharmaceutical, cosmetic and
chemical industries.
Metal Components. The metal components manufactured by the
Registrant are made from ferrous and non-ferrous metals and their alloys
and consist principally of butt weld type fittings, flanges and pressure
and non-pressure container heads. The weld fittings include caps,
elbows, return bends, concentric and eccentric reducers, full and
reducing outlet tees, and a full line of pipe flanges, all of which are
pressure rated. The Registrant manufactures and stocks, in standard,
extra-heavy and double-extra-heavy weights and in various diameters, weld
caps, tees, reducers, elbows, return bends, flanges and also manufactures
to customer specifications. The basic raw materials for weld fittings
and flanges are carbon steel, stainless steel, aluminum, chrome-moly and
other metal tubing or seamless pipe and forgings. The Registrant sells
its weld fittings and flanges to distributors and to other manufacturers
of weld fittings.
Container heads manufactured by the Registrant are pressed metal
components used in the further manufacture of a finished product. Since
the manufacture of container heads requires a substantial investment in
heavy equipment and dies, many other manufacturers order container heads
from the Registrant. Container heads are manufactured in various shapes
and may be pressure rated or non-pressure, depending on the intended use
in further manufacture. Other pressed shapes are also hot- or
cold-formed to customer requirements.
Leasing. The Company has one wholly-owned leasing subsidiary,
Trinity Industries Leasing Company ("TILC"), which was incorporated in
1979. TILC is engaged in leasing specialized types of railcars,
consisting of both tank cars and hopper cars, to industrial companies in
the petroleum, chemical, grain, food processing, fertilizer and other
industries which supply cars to the railroads. At March 31, 1995,1996, TILC
had under lease 9,0668,283 railcars. During fiscal year 1995, TILC divested
its inventory of river hopper barges previously held for lease. The
barges were operated under an agreement which provided for management of
the barges. The barges were generally used for movement of commodities
on the inland waterway system, primarily the Mississippi and Missouri
Rivers.
Substantially all equipment leased by TILC was purchased from
the Registrant at prices comparable to the prices for equipment sold by
the Registrant to third parties. As of March 31, 1995,1996, TILC had
equipment on lease or available for lease purchased from the Registrant
at a cost of $431.0$391.5 million. Generally, TILC purchases the equipment to
be leased only after a lessee has committed to lease such equipment.
The volume of equipment purchased and leased by TILC depends
upon a number of factors, including the demand for equipment manufactured
by the Registrant, the cost and availability of funds to finance the
purchase of equipment, the Registrant's decision to solicit orders for
the purchase or lease of equipment and factors which may affect the
decision of the Registrant's customers as to whether to purchase or lease
equipment.
Although the Registrant is not contractually obligated to offer
to TILC equipment proposed to be leased by the Registrant's customers, it
is the Registrant's intention to effect all such leasing transactions
through TILC. Similarly, while TILC is not contractually obligated to
purchase from the Registrant any equipment proposed to be leased, TILC
intends to purchase and lease all equipment which the Registrant's
customers desire to lease when the lease rentals and other terms of the
proposed lease are satisfactory to TILC, subject to the availability and
cost of funds to finance the acquisition of the equipment.
Marketing, Raw Materials, Employees and Competition. As of
March 31, 1995,1996, the Registrant operated only in the continental United States. On May
5, 1995, the Registrant acquired one hundred percent of the capital stock of
the holding company which owns Grupo TATSA S.A. de C.V. Grupo TATSA is
headquartered in Mexico City,States
and Mexico. The Registrant sells substantially all of its products
through its own salesmen operating from offices in Montgomery, Alabama;
Elizabethtown and Paducah, Kentucky; Shreveport, Louisiana; Flint,
Michigan; St. Louis, Missouri; Gulfport, Mississippi; Asheville, North
Carolina; Cincinnati and Girard, Ohio; Beaumont, Dallas/Ft. Worth,
Houston and Navasota, Texas; Centerville, Utah; and Centerville, Utah.Mexico. Independent
sales representatives are also used to a limited extent. The Registrant
markets railcars, containers and metal components throughout the United
States. Except in the case of weld fittings, guardrail, and standard
size LP gas containers, the Registrant's products are ordinarily
fabricated to the customer's specifications pursuant to a purchase order.
The principal materials used by the Registrant are steel plate,
structural steel shapes and steel forgings. There are numerous domestic
and foreign sources of such steel and most other materials used by the
Registrant.
The Registrant currently has approximately 16,50016,300 employees, of
which approximately 15,10015,000 are production employees and 1,4001,300 are
administrative, sales, supervisory and office employees.
There are numerous companies located throughout the United
States that are engaged in the business of manufacturing various railcars
and containers of the types manufactured by the Registrant, and these
industries are highly competitive. Companies manufacturing products
which compete with the Registrant's construction products consist of
numerous other structural fabricators and ready-mix concrete producers,
most of which are smaller than the Registrant. Small shipyards located on
inland waterways and medium to large size shipyards located on or near
ports on navigable waterways produce marine products which compete with
those manufactured by the Registrant. Both domestic and foreign
manufacturers of metal components, some of which are larger than the
Registrant, compete with the Registrant. A number of well-established
companies actively compete with TILC in the business of owning and
leasing railcars, as well as banks, investment partnerships and other
financial and commercial institutions.
Recent Developments. Information concerning the Registrant's
business acquisitions are included in the Registrant's 19951996 Annual Report
to Stockholders under the heading "Business Acquisitions," (pages 23
through 24) and such section is incorporated herein by reference.
On June 25, 1996, the Board of Directors of the Registrant approved
an initial public offering of one hundred percent (100%) of the common stock
of a newly incorporated company which will acquire the assets and liabilities
of a portion of the Registrant's Marine Products segment. The newly formed
company will engage in the business of constructing and repairing ocean-going
marine vessels. Completion of the offering is subject to registration of the
offering with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Other Matters. The Registrant is not materially affected by federal,
state and local provisions which have been enacted or adopted regulating the
discharge of materials into the environment or otherwise relating to the
protection of the environment. To date, the Registrant has not suffered any
material shortages with respect to obtaining sufficient energy supplies to
operate its various plant facilities or its transportation vehicles. Future
limitations on the availability or consumption of petroleum products
(particularly natural gas for plant operations and diesel fuel for vehicles)
could have an adverse effect upon the Registrant's ability to conduct its
business. The likelihood of such an occurrence or its duration, and its
ultimate effect on the Registrant's operations, cannot be reasonably predicted
at this time.
Item 2. Properties.
The Registrant's principal executive offices are located in a ten
story office building containing approximately 107,000 sq. ft. and a connected
adjacent building containing approximately 66,000 sq. ft., each owned by the
Registrant, in Dallas, Texas. The following table sets forth certain salient
facts with respect to each of the operating plant properties owned and/or

TO OUR STOCKHOLDERS
It is with pleasure and pride that I report on the status of our Company.
It has been a good year for Trinity. ItPAGE 3
To Our Stockholders
By any measure, fiscal 1996 was a year ofvery significant year.
We are proud to have, once again, achieved record revenues and net income,income.
Trinity is positioned to take advantage of record productionopportunities as they arise,
and orders on hand, of growth and
expansion, and of acquisitions and new technology. Itthese opportunities continue to grow. Our primary challenge over the
past year has been to find and train qualified employees to accommodate
our growth. Additional qualified personnel will continue to be a
significant challenge in the year of
healthy challenges - those caused by growth and competition. The Annual
Report to Stockholders speaks for itself. Our employees have met
challenges, and Trinity is prospering.ahead.
In the twelve month period ended March 31, 1995, revenues were $2.3
billion, and the Company recorded1996, net income
of $89.1, or $2.20 per share.
For the twelve months ofincreased 28% over the prior fiscal year, income before cumulative
effect of change in accounting for income taxes of $68.3to a record $113.8 million,
or $1.69
per share, was recorded on revenues of $1.8 billion. Net income was $76.2
million, or $1.89$2.72 per share. Revenues increased 8% over fiscal 1995 to a record
$2.5 billion.
Overall, we are seeing our business segments continue to marshal their
forces and focus their efforts on some very significant opportunities.
It is gratifying to see these segments in which we have invested a
considerable amount of time, energy, and resources begin to assume the
market positions that we had envisioned several years ago.
Our Marine Products segment has taken a major leap forward over the
past year. Replacement cycles are creating more demand for various types
of vessels. We are seeing particularly good demand for inland hopper
barges. Our nation's grain storage is at its lowest level in several
decades, creating a need for additional crops and higher yields to meet
the escalating export demands. This translates into increasing volumes
of both grain and fertilizer shipments. Coal shipments account for a
significant percentage of barge use as well. Barge traffic on our
rivers remains very strong, and with frequent use and aging, comes
the need for replacement.
Boats and ships used for oceanographic research, offshore work,
patrol, and recreation are an important part of our Marine Products
segment. We have signed a contract for a large supply vessel, and if
energy demands remain steady and exploration and drilling continue to
move farther and farther offshore, we should see an increased need for
newer and larger offshore supply boats within the next twenty-four months.
The replacement cycle continues to play a vital role in our Railcars
segment and is strongly correlated to the advancing age of the total
railcar fleet. Railcar retirements and scrappings should continue to
create a healthy demand for our products. As our economy continues to
expand, we expect to see a growing volume of rail traffic.
Good opportunities exist as railroads upgrade their equipment,
more private shippers acquire their own railcar fleets, and the
demand for specialized railcars increases. All of this bodes well for
Trinity. We continue to meet market needs by developing new products
and improving our methods for producing railcars and parts.
Our Construction Products segment has experienced good growth
in revenues and income over the past year, fueled primarily in
two areas - highway safety products and ready-mix concrete
and related materials. In the three months ended March 31, 1995,
revenues totalled $638.2 million. Net income of $25.7 million, or $0.63
per share, was recorded. In the prior year's comparable quarter, net
income of $15.2 million, or $0.38 per share, was recorded on revenues of
$452.7 million.addition to producing a quality
guardrail products, Trinity is becoming increasingly globalplaying a leading role in many aspectssafer
highway barrier end treatments. Our impact-absorbing highway
safety barriers are rapidly replacing barriers that do not meet
the new safety standards that will take effect in 1998. Trinity's
ready-mix concrete and aggregates business is enjoying growth in its
governmental, residential, and commercial markets.
PAGE 4
Our Metal Components segment continues to post record financial results.
The intensifying worldwide demand for energy and petrochemical products
points to continuing strong demand for Trinity's fittings,
flanges and heads, and continuing strong financial performance
in this segment. Our Containers segment is profitable and growing,
reflecting the expanding needs of its business.
With increased production,residential, commercial, and
industrial users of liquefied petroleum gas. We expect this
trend to continue. Leasing remains a profitable marketing tool
for Trinity, must now look internationallyadding to our flexibility, while improving our ability
to serve the customer.
Overall, our diverse but compatible business segments create
unique opportunities for manyour Company, enhancing our customer
service and marketing efforts, while often providing the
competitive edge. Our seasoned product managers have learned to
draw upon these integrated resources, using them to Trinity's
advantage in the marketplace.
We are realizing benefits from our acquisition of
Trinity Industries de Mexico (formerly Grupo Tatsa) in the materials and component parts needed for manufacture and
maintenance. As free trade laws like NAFTA are passed, it is both an
encouragement and a necessity to keep a watchful eye on international
competition. Many challenges and opportunities originate from these
rapidly changing political and economic phenomenon.
Subsequent to the closefirst quarter
of fiscal 1995, one such opportunity for
international expansion occurred.1996. Trinity seized this opportunity and
increased its presence in Mexico. On May 5, 1995, Trinity acquired the
holding company for Grupo Tatsa,Industries de Mexico, headquartered in Mexico City. Grupo Tatsa
manufactures and distributesCity,
produces a wide variety of fabricated steel products includingfor use in the United States
and Mexico, while affording Trinity a more competitive position in the
growing South American market. As we become increasingly global in our
operations, we benefit from NAFTA, from the new markets, and from healthy
competition.
As we grow, we continue to place priority on quality products,
forexcellent service, well-trained employees, and competitive prices.
Our QuEST Total Quality Management program serves us well and has
expanded significantly since its initiation in the storagelate eighties.
In fact, as a result of the innovation and transportation of liquefied
petroleum products marketed in Mexico and other Latin American countries.
The acquisition of Grupo Tatsa should add to Trinity's flexibility and cost
efficiency as these operations are integrated into the company's
operations.
Increased opportunities are coupledenthusiasm with increased competition and this,
generally, means greater demand for the materials, components and supplies
needed to build the Company's products. Frequently, seeking materials,
component parts, and supplies intenationally may drive up costs and extend
delivery times. These business conditions call for attentive effort,
creativity and salesmanship on the part of our employees. We have been
successful in meeting these challenges and are proud ofwhich
our employees abilities.
We continually evaluatehave responded to this program, several major companies
have recognized Trinity for our facilities and our products to determine their
cost-effectiveness and relevance to future business operations. During the
past year, we have disposed of some facilities and acquired others in this
continuing effort to maximize and efficiently utilize our resources. We
continue our philosophy of expansion through a balance of internal growth
and strategic acquisitions. Internal review and evaluation is a normal
part of the acquisition and expansion process. During the last quarter of
the fiscal year, a review and evaluation was concluded of certain assets
used by the Company in its business operations. Certain real property was
determined to be in excess of that required for future business operations.
While the ultimate values for these assets on sale will not be known until
the actual sale, management determined that a valuation provision was
appropriate. A valuation reserve was established for approximately eight
million dollars.
Our emphasis on quality and safety is keeping pace withservice excellence.
We use our growth. We
have developed a bilingual, computer-assisted training program for workers,
designed to
successfully teach and upgradeboth job skills and provide safety procedures. This
program, coupled with intensive on-the-job training, on an
ongoing basis. This advanced program is being testedhelps our
employees master specific tasks and become skilled at their
professions. We also are increasing the use of computers and robotics
in our Railcars
segmentmanufacturing processes.
Today, we find ourselves in a very dynamic environment where
change is the only constant. New products are continually being
created and improved. Global markets are opening and expanding, and
technology is rapidly advancing. Trinity is in an excellent position
to take advantage of the opportunities that change presents.
The past year brought additional talent to our Board of Directors.
Clifford J. Grum, chairman and chief executive officer of
Temple-Inland, Inc., became a Trinity director. His leadership and
expertise will sooncertainly be employed throughout the company.
We continuean asset to seek and acquire new technology that provides more
consistent quality and efficiency in our operations. We are using robotics
more frequently in areas where consistency and safety are critical.
OverTrinity.
In summary, the past year Trinity has been recognized with a number of awards
from major companies, reconfirminggood for Trinity,
and we look forward to even better days ahead. We are grateful to
those whose loyalty and dedication have made our efforts to provide quality productssuccess possible -
our employees, customers, suppliers, and outstanding service at competitive prices.stockholders. We will
strive to serve our
customers, we also strive to be responsible corporate citizens, remaining
ever mindful of our environment and the well-being of the world around us.
It appears that both the railcar and marine replacement cycles are becoming
more orderly. We have experienced increased demand in both our Railcars
and Marine Products segments and are realizing benefits of Trinity's
readiness to replace aging fleets. The Railcars segment finished fiscal
1995 with record orders on hand and increased its unit production rate in
the fourth quarter by more than twenty percent compared to the previous
quarter.
In addition to replacement demand, large U.S. grain crops and demand for
grain by developing countries are improving the outlook for barges in the
Marine Products segment. While barges are important marine products,
specialty boats like those used for resort recreation, oceanographic
vessels, and high speed patrol boats and off-shore work boats add to the
diversity of our Marine Products segment. From all indications, we are on
the verge of a favorable across-the-board shipbuilding cycle.
Our Construction Products segment has expanded over the past year. There
appear to be more signs of vitality in construction work than we have seen
in almost a decade. We have expanded our highway guardrail and road
barrier products and substantially increased our concrete and aggregate
business. Trinity recently purchased certain Texas ready-mix concrete
equipment, facilities and aggregate mining assets from LaFarge Corporation.
This purchase moves the Transit Mix business into geographical areas in
Texas and Louisiana not served by previous operations. We are anticipating
additional growth in these markets.
Looking forward, it is anticipated that the Company will continue its
expansion and upward trend. We appreciateearn your continued support, the
dedication of our loyal employees, and the support of our customers and
suppliers.confidence.

In the Company's continuing effortfiscal 1996, Trinity made substantial investments in expanding
our production capacity-investments that should generate increasing
benefits beginning in fiscal 1997. We committed significant capital
to expand both the productacquiring additional shipyards and customer base, the Company entered into agreements with the United States
Maritime Administration (commonly referred to as MARAD) for development of
several new products including a new high speed, low wake catamaran passenger
ferry, a large passenger / vehicle ferry, a container / bulk carriermaking our existing shipyards more
efficient. We acquired and a
multi-purpose cargo ship. As international economic conditions improve, these
types of projects may develop new markets. The Company has focused its
resources on expansioninstalled additional production equipment and

our customers throughout the world.
In fiscal 1996, Marine Products segment revenues were $369.7 million and operating profit was $30.3$22.0 million
for the year ended March 31, 1995. In the
prior fiscal year,on revenues of $360.7 million and$421.4 million. This compares to operating profit of
$28.9$30.3 million on revenues of $369.7 million in fiscal 1995. Results for
fiscal 1996 were reported.affected by the acquisitions and expansions discussed above.
Results for fiscal 1995 reflected profits totaling approximately
$6.7 million from the sale of Trinity's inventory of hopper barges
previously held for lease.
PAGE 8
We are now experiencing a replacement cycle that is pushing ever-higher
the demand for barges of many types. Aging vessels and expanding volumes
of grain and coal exports are continuing to create strong demand for Trinity
s hopper barges. Further, recent environmental legislation requires the
gradual phase-in of double-skin fuel tanker barges as replacements for
the single-hull types. We expect these trends to endure for some time,
producing excellent and growing demand for Trinity's barges.
We also foresee a similar replacement building trend
developing for Trinity's offshore supply boat products.

Management Discussion of Operations and Financial Condition
Operations
Record revenues of $2.5 billion were recorded for the
fiscal year ended March 31, 1996, an increase of $181.1
million compared to fiscal 1995. The Company experienced increased
demand in the Railcars, Marine Products, Construction Products, and
Metal Components segments. Revenues recorded by the Containers
segment remained comparable to the previous fiscal year. Leasing
segment revenues declined in comparison to the previous fiscal
year's results. The Railcars and Marine Products segments continue
to benefit from the ongoing replacement cycle. The Construction
Products segment continues to be favorably affected by additional
business acquisitions of certain ready-mix concrete operations
(see Business Acquisitions in Notes to Consolidated Financial
Statements) and by continued federal and state government focus on
improving the transportation infrastructure. The Metal Components
segment has benefitted from improved market conditions. Total
operating profit increased from $157.5 million in fiscal 1995
to $201.2 million in fiscal 1996 due primarily to higher operating
profit recorded in the Railcars, Construction Products, Containers,
and Metal Components segments, partially offset by slightly lower
operating profit recorded in the Marine Products segments.
Continuing a trend started in fiscal 1993, revenues and operating
profit in the Railcars segment increased in fiscal 1996 compared to the
previous fiscal year as a result of continued replacement demand and
expansion of railroad traffic. During fiscal 1996, as expected, orders
returned to levels more indicative of long-term demand and it is
anticipated that this demand will continue in the next fiscal year.
Trinity continues to be active in the railcar market with a variety
of car types including coal, grain, plastic pellet, cement, and a
variety of tank railcars.
Revenues increased in the Marine Products segment as the
replacement cycle for barges and marine vessels continues to
intensify. Operating profit, compared to the previous fiscal year,
declined as the Marine segment hired personnel and geared up production
facilities that had been closed in the past. Prior year results
presented profits of $6.7 million from the sale of hopper barges
previously held for lease. Strategic acquisitions (see Business
Acquisitions in Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements),
continued improvements made to existing capacity, and
increased interest by domestic and foreign buyers in offshore supply
boats and small container ships has positioned this segment for
future growth.
The Construction Products segment has expanded its highway
guardrail and road barrier products and expanded its ready-mix
concrete and aggregate business. Improvements in operating
results are reflective of increased efficiencies gained from
integrating operations from past acquisitions and recent funding
increases for improvements to the nation's highway systems.
The strong outlook for commercial, residential, and municipal
construction in these markets is expected to continue.
Industry demand for products in the Metal Components segment
has risen in the current fiscal year. General improvement in the
economy has generated some expansion in the industries served by
this segment. The Containers segment has benefitted primarily
from the general improvement in the economy. Leasing segment's
revenues declined in fiscal 1996 due to the sale of selected equipment.
Record revenues of $2.3 billion were recorded for the fiscal
year ended March 31, 1995, an increase of $530.0 million compared
to fiscal 1994. The Company experienced increases in demand in all
of its six major business segments, with the Railcars segment
contributing the most significant increase. Railcars, the
Company's largest segment, enjoyed the benefit of a better
market for its railcars and railcar related products.
The Construction Products segment's revenues continue to be
favorably affected by additional business acquisitions of certain
ready-mix concrete operations. (See Business Acquisitions in the
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements).Statements.) The Marine Products,
Containers and Metal Components segments experienced expanding markets.
Total operating profit increased from $116.6 million in fiscal 1994 to
$157.5 million in fiscal 1995 due primarily to higher operating operating profit
recorded in the Railcars, Marine Products, Metal Components, and
Leasing segments, partially offset by slightly lower operating
profit recorded in the Containers segment. A valuation reserve was
established for approximately $8.0 million for certain real
property which was determined to be in excess of that required
for future business operations.
Expanding on a trend which began in fiscal 1993, production and
deliveries in the Railcars segment again increased in fiscal 1995.
Operating profit as a percentage of revenues increased in fiscal 1995
compared to the previous fiscal year as greater efficiencies were
achieved as a result of ongoing participation in quality assurance
programs established in previous years. Trinity continues to be
active in the railcar market with a variety of car types including
coal, grain, plastic pellet, cement, intermodal, and a variety of
tank railcars. Increased revenues and operating profit in fiscal
1995 are primarily the result of replacement demand and fundamental
economic expansion of railroad traffic.
This demand is expected to continue as railcars on
order at the end of the fiscal year exceeded those of the prior fiscal year.
The Company anticipates higher levels of production for the coming fiscal year.
In the Marine Products segment, demand for the segment's
products, marine vessels and barges, continuescontinued to increase.
The inland river hopper barge product line is generally benefitted
by large grain crops.
Orders on hand for
this segment are increasing as the replacement market grows. The Marine
Products segment is further positioning itself for future growth and
contribution to operating profit through strategic business acquisitions. (See
Business Acquisitions in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements).PAGE 16
The Construction Products segment has expanded its highway
guardrail and road barrier products and expanded the ready-mix
concrete and aggregate business. Acquisitions completed
in fiscal 1995 were made at various times during the year.
The inclusion of a full year of these acquisitions in future
years is expected to show favorable results in year to yearyear-to-year
comparisons.
Continuing improvement in the chemical and petroleum
industries related to the Clean Air Act and new housing starts
is leadingled to improvement in the Containers segment, particularly the market
for LPG tanks. Competitive markets for the Company's large pressure
vessels are partially offsettingoffset segment operating profit. Industry demand
for products in the Metal Components segment has risenrose in the currentproir fiscal
year. General improvement in the economy has generated some expansion in the
industries served by this segment. Leasing segment's operating profit
was higher in fiscal 1995 due primarily to additions of new freight
and tank railcars to the fleet, and the sale of selected car types,
coupled with the divestituresale of its inventory of river hopper barges
previously held for lease.
Record revenues of $1.78 billion were recorded by the Company for theSelling, engineering and administrative expenses increased
to $120.3 million in fiscal year ended March 31, 1994, an increase of $244.91996 from $104.5 million comparedin fiscal
1995 due primarily to increased personnel expenses from fiscal 1993. Significant increases in demand1996
acquisitions and increased personnel expenses from additional hires
in the Railcars Construction
Products, Containers, and Leasing segments lead to the record year. Revenues
recorded by the Metal Components segment remained comparable to the previous
fiscal year. Revenues recorded declined when compared to Marine Products
previous fiscal year's record revenues. Demand for railcars has increased
causing upward adjustments to production rates to accommodate increases in
business. The Construction Products segment's revenues were favorably
affected by additional business acquisitions of certain concrete operations.
(See Business Acquisitions in the Notes to Consolidated Financial
Statements). The Containers and Metal Components segments experienced
expanding markets. Total operating profit increased from $74.6 million in
fiscal 1993 to $116.6 million in fiscal 1994 due primarily to higher operating
profit recorded in the Railcars, Construction Products, and Leasing segments,
partially offset by slightly lower operating profit recorded in the Marine
Products, Containers and Metal Components segments.
Continuing a trend which accelerated in fiscal 1993, production and deliveries
in the Railcars segment increased in fiscal 1994. Operating profit as a
percentage of revenues increased in fiscal 1994 compared to the previous
fiscal year as greater efficiencies were achieved as a result of ongoing
participation in quality assurance programs established in previous years.
Increased revenues and operating profit in fiscal 1994 were primarily the
result of expanded demand attributed to a continuing railcar replacement
cycle, demand for new types of railcars as the transporting of certain
commodities across the country shifted from over-the-road trucking to rail, a
net increase in the amount of goods and products that are shipped by rail, and
the general improvement in the economy. In the Marine Products segment,
demand for the segment's products, marine vessels and barges, continued to be
strong and broad based. The decline in fiscal year 1994 results compared to
results from the previous fiscal year was due primarily to the record revenues
and operating profit recorded in the previous fiscal year from the completion
of a multi-vessel, quick production contract. The replacement market for
vessels and barges lead to expanded production. The Marine Products segment
further positioned itself for future growth and contribution to operating
profit through strategic business acquisitions. (See Business Acquisitions in
the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements).
Construction Products segment's revenues and operating profit increased in
fiscal 1994 compared to the previous fiscal year. These results signify the
effect of the decision to emphasize infrastructure products, including highway
guardrail and safety barriers, and construction materials and aggregates.
Continued expansion of the ready mix concrete markets helped to boost the
segment's revenues and operating profit. General improvement in the chemical
and petroleum industries and new housing starts lead to improvement in the
Containers segment, particularly the market for LPG tanks. Competitive
markets for the Company's large pressure vessels partially offset segment
operating profit. Industry demand for products in the Metal Components
segment rose in fiscal year 1994. General improvement in the economy
generated some expansion in the industries served by this segment. Leasing
segment's operating profit was higher in fiscal 1994 due primarily to
additions of new freight and tank railcars to the fleet, sales of selected car
types previously for lease, and a slight reduction in overall repair and
maintenance expenses in the current fiscal year. Selling,
engineering and administrative expenses increased to $104.5
million in fiscal 1995 from $94.2 million in fiscal 1994 due
principally to additional personnel expenses from fiscal 1995
business acquisitions and increased Railcars segment business.
Selling, engineering and administrative
expenses were up slightly in fiscal 1994 compared to fiscal 1993. Increases
were due to additional personnel from fiscal 1994 business acquisitions and
increased Railcars segment business, offset somewhat by the absence of
expenses present in the prior fiscal year related to the business acquisition
of Syro.
Interest expense of the Leasing Subsidiary decreased by $3.6

$51.4$40.0 million. Payments for acquisitions in fiscal 1995,1996, net of
cash acquired, totalled $63.7$28.6 million. Future operating requirements
are expected to be financed principally with net cash flows from
operations. Internally generated funds, short-term and long-termlong-
term debt will continue to be used to finance business acquisitions.

through internally generated funds, the issuance of equipment
trust certificates, or similar debt instruments.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
The financial statements of Trinity Industries, Inc. and its consolidated
subsidiaries ("Trinity" or the "Company") include the accounts of all
significant majority-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany
accounts and transactions have been eliminated.
The Company accounts for its wholly-owned Leasing Subsidiary in
accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 94,
"Consolidation of All Majority-Owned Subsidiaries," which requires the
consolidation of all majority-owned subsidiaries, unless control is
temporary or does not reside with the majority owner. The Company's
financial statements include the consolidation of the accounts of Trinity
Industries Leasing Company ("TILC"). TILC is sometimes referred to as the
"Leasing Company" or "Leasing Subsidiary".
For purposes of the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows, the Company
considers all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with a maturity of
three months or less to be cash equivalents. Financial instruments which
potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk are
primarily cash investments and receivables. The Company places its cash
investments in investment grade, short-term debt instruments and limits the
amount of credit exposure to any one commercial issuer. Concentrations of
credit risk with respect to receivables are limited due to the large number
of customers in the Company's customer base, and their dispersion across
different industries and geographic areas. The Company maintains an
allowance for losses based upon the expected collectibility of all
receivables.
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 and
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.
For financial accounting, profits on long-term contracts are recorded on
the percentage-of-completion method. Allocation of profits to various
periods is based on costs incurred, units delivered, or other appropriate
measures. Provision is made for losses when they become known.
TILC enters into lease contracts with third parties with terms generally
ranging between one and fifteen years, wherein certain equipment
manufactured by Trinity is leased for a specified type of service over the
term of the contract. TILC accounts for leases principally by the
operating method.
Inventories and investments are valued at the lower of cost or market.
Inventory cost is determined principally on the specific identification
method. Market is replacement cost or net realizable value.
Depreciation and amortization are generally computed by the straight-line
method on the estimated useful lives of the assets. The costs of ordinary
maintenance and repair are charged to expense, while renewals and major
replacements are capitalized.
Net income per common and common equivalent share areis based on the
weighted average shares outstanding plus the assumed exercise of dilutive
stock options (less the number of treasury shares assumed to be purchased
from the proceeds using the average market price of Trinity's common
stock).
ForIn March 1995, Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 121,
"Accounting for the years ended March 31,Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived
Assets to be Disposed of," was issued. Adoption is required for the
Company beginning in fiscal 1997. The Company does not believe that the
adoption of this Statement will have a significant impact on Trinity.

Certain reclassifications have been made to prior year statements to
conform to the current year presentation.

Stockholder's Rights Plan
The Company has adopted a Stockholder's Rights Plan.
Effective April 27, 1989, the Company paid a dividend
distribution of one purchase right for each outstanding share of
the Company's $1.00 par value common stock. Each right entitles
the stockholder to purchase from the Company one one-hundredth of
a share of Series A Junior Participating Preferred Stock at an
exercise price of one hundred and seventy-five dollars. The rights
are not exercisable or detachable from the common stock until ten
business days after a person acquires beneficial ownership of twenty
percent or more of the Company's common stock or if a person or group
commences a tender or exchange offer upon consummation of which that
person or group would beneficially own twenty percent or more of the
common stock.
If any person becomes a beneficial owner of twenty percent or
more of the Company's common stock other than pursuant to an offer,
as defined, for all shares determined by certain directors to be
fair to the stockholders and otherwise in the best interests of both
the Company and its stockholders (other than by reason of share
purchases by the Company), each right not owned by that person or
related parties enables its holder to purchase, at the right's
then current exercise price, shares of the Company's common stock having a
calculated value of twice the right's exercise price.
The rights, which are subject to adjustment, may be redeemed
by the Company at a price of one cent per right at any time prior to
their expiration on April 27, 1999 or the point at which they become
exercisable.

Income Taxes
(in millions except per share data)
Effective April 1, 1993 the Company 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, the Company has elected not to restate the
financial statements of any prior period. The cumulative effect
of applying the change in accounting method is a decrease in the
Company's deferred tax liability and a nonrecurring credit of
$7.9 or $0.20 per share.
The provision for federal income taxes is determined on a
consolidated return basis. The Company and the Leasing
Subsidiary file a consolidated federal income tax return. The
significant components of the provision (benefit) for income
taxes follow to the right:

Contingencies
The Company is a defendant in certain litigation involving
alleged damages from a construction subcontract over the
fabrication and erection of structural steel for the construction
of the Marriott Marquis Hotel In May, 1994, a jury sittingTimes Square, New York City, New York.
A retrial is scheduled for fall 1996 in the United States District Court
for the Southern District of New York returned a verdict against the company in an
action brought against Mosher by Morse-Diesel, Inc. for damages allegedly
caused in the construction of the Marriott Marquis Hotel in Times Square, New
York City, New York. Judgement against Trinity was entered in February, 1995
in the amount of approximately sixty million dollars including interest
accrued to that date. Appeal of the jury verdict is pending before the
Second Circuit Court of Appeals. Trinity has been advised by legal counsel
that it has substantial defenses and remedies available, and it is pursuing
all available avenues in the post-trial and appellate review process.
Trinity has not been involved in the fabrication of structural steel for
multi-story buildings since 1989. While the ultimate liability in
this matter is difficult to assess, it is management's belief that the
final outcome is not reasonably likely to have a material adverse affect
on the Company's consolidated financial position.
The Company is involved in various other claims and lawsuits
incidental to its business. In the opinion of management, these
claims and suits in the aggregate will not have a material
adverse affect on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

Report of Independent Auditors
The Board of Directors
Trinity Industries, Inc.
We have audited the accompanying statements of financial
condition of the Profit Sharing Plan for Employees of Trinity
Industries, Inc. and Certain Affiliates (the "Plan") as of March
31, 19951996 and 1994,1995, and the related statements of income and
changes in plan equity for each of the three years in the period
ended March 31, 1995.1996. These financial statements are the
responsibility of the Plan's management. Our responsibility is
to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our
audits.
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 presentation. We believe that
our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above
present fairly, in all material respects, the financial condition
of the Plan at March 31, 19951996 and 1994,1995, and the income and
changes in plan equity for each of the three years in the period
ended March 31, 1995,1996, in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles.
Our audits were made for the purpose of forming an opinion on the
basic financial statements taken as a whole. The accompanying
supplemental schedules of assets held for investment purposes as
of March 31, 1996 and reportable transactions for the year then
ended are presented for purposes of complying with the Department
of Labor's Rules and Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure
under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, and
are not a required part of the basic financial statements. The
Fund Information in the statements of financial condition and the
statements of income and changes in plan equity is presented for
purposes of additional analysis rather than to present the
financial condition and income and changes in plan equity of each
fund. The supplemental schedules and Fund Information have been
subjected to the auditing procedures applied in our audits of the
basic financial statements and, in our opinion, are fairly stated
in all material respects in relation to the basic financial
statements taken as a whole.

Notes to Financial Statements
March 31, 19951996
1. Description of the Plan
General - The Profit Sharing Plan for Employees of Trinity
Industries, Inc. and Certain Affiliates (the "Plan") was adopted by
the Board of Directors of Trinity Industries, Inc. (the "Board") on
December 11, 1986 and became effective January 1, 1987, for
eligible employees of Trinity Industries, Inc. and Certain
Affiliates (the "Employer"). The Plan was amended and restated

an amount equal to 50 percent of that portion of such participant's
employee contribution which does not exceed six percent of such
participant's total compensation for the year. If the Employer

one but less than five years of service shall receive an amount
equal to 25 percent of that portion of such participant's employee
contribution which does not exceed six percent of such
participant's total compensation for the year.
Employer contributions are net of forfeitures, as defined.
Employer contributions for a given plan year shall be deposited in
the Profit Sharing Trust for Employees of Trinity Industries, Inc.
and Certain Affiliates (the "Trust Fund") as defined below, no
later than the date on which the Employer files its Federal income
tax return for such year.
The Employer and Texas Commerce Bank - Dallas (the "Trustee"),
have entered into a Trust Agreement under which the latter acts as
Trustee under the Plan. Texas Commerce Bank - Dallas is the
successsor Trustee to First City Bank of Dallas, N.A. pursuant to
the acquisition by Texas Commerce Bank - Dallas of the assets and
certain liabilities of the former First City Bank of Dallas, N.A.
In its capacity as Trustee, Texas Commerce Bank - Dallas
invests the employee contributions and Employer contributions in
the following investment options (hereafter collectively referred
to as the "Trust Fund"):
(a) Trinity Stock Investment Account ("Stock Account") holds
shares of Employer common stock purchased on behalf of the
participants. Idle cash is invested in interest-bearing
accounts until such time as it can be utilized to purchase
Employer common stock.
(b) Guaranteed Investment Contract Investment Account (the
"Guaranteed Investment Account") invests in guaranteed
investment contracts issued by anvarious insurance companycompanies
selected annually by the Committee. At March 31, 1996, the
guaranteed investment contracts had guaranteed annual rates
of return of 9.06% (GAC 5027), 6.24% (GAC 627-05387), 6.08%
(GAC 20254),8.31% (GAC 7614) and 5.15% (GAC 7219).

guaranteed annual rates of return of 8.80%8.8% (GAC 4854), 9.06%
(GAC 5027), 6.24% (GAC 627-05387), 8.31% (GAC 7614) and 5.15%
(GAC 7219).
Participant's accounts invested in the Guaranteed Investment
Account earn interest at a rate blended from all of the
contracts included in the Guaranteed Investment Account. The
account is credited with earnings on the underlying
investments and charged for plan withdrawals and
administrative expenses charged by the insurance companies.
Transfers of participants accounts to and from the Guaranteed
Investment Account are not permitted.

Participants may elect the extent to which assets are invested
in the options described above in increments of 10 percent or 25
percent. At March 31, 1996, 1995 1994 and 1993,1994, the majority of
participants had elected to participate in the guaranteed
investment contracts.
Benefits - Distribution of a participant's account balance is
payable upon retirement at or after age 65, total disability,
death, or termination of employment. Distribution is equal to the
salary reduction contribution and related earnings plus the vested
portion of the Employer contribution and related earnings.
Withdrawal of up to 100 percent of the employee contribution
can be made only to meet "immediate and heavy financial needs"
(medical care, college tuition, the purchase of a principal
residence, or to prevent the foreclosure on a principal residence)
as long as the funds are not available for such needs from other
sources. No withdrawal can be made against the earnings on the
employee contributions or against the Employer contribution and
related earnings. These restrictions no longer apply when the
participant reaches age 59 1/2.
Loans for "immediate and heavy financial needs" may be made
for a minimum of $1,000 up to a maximum of $50,000, not to exceed
50 percent of the Employee contribution and related earnings and
not to exceed 50 percent of the vested portion of the Employer
contribution and related earnings. Loans are subject to rules and
regulations established by the Plan Administrator, as defined in
the Plan.
Vesting - The Employer contribution and related earnings
(losses) vest to participants, depending upon the number of years
of vesting service, as defined, completed by such participant as
follows:
Years of Service Percentage Vested
Less than 1 0
1 but less than 2 20
2 but less than 3 40
3 but less than 4 60
4 but less than 5 80
5 or more 100
Participants are 100 percent vested in their Employer
contribution and allocated portion of related earnings (losses)
upon their attainment of age 65 and are always 100 percent vested
in their employee contribution and related earnings (losses) on
such contribution.
Administration of the Plan - The Plan is administered by a
Profit Sharingthe
Committee, (the "Committee") consisting of at least three persons who are appointed
by the Board. The members of the Committee serve at the pleasure
of the Board, and any committee member who is an employee of the
Employer shall not receive compensation for his services.
A separate account is maintained for each participant. The
Plan provides that account balances for participants are adjusted
periodically as follows:
(a) Employee contributions are generally allocated on a
quarterly basis;
(b) Participant's share of the Employer contribution shall be
allocated to the participant's account as of a date no later
than the last day of the Plan year;
(c) Earnings and appreciation or depreciation of investment
assets of the Trust Fund for each calendar quarter shall be
allocated to the accounts of participants, former
participants and beneficiaries who had unpaid balances in
their accounts on the last day of such calendar quarter in
proportion to the balances in such accounts at the beginning
of the calendar quarter.
Upon request, distributions shall be made no earlier than the
later of the last day of the calendar quarter in which entitlement
occurs or the date on which the Committee determines the final
balances. Distributions from the Stock Account shall be made in
cash unless otherwise designated by the participant.
Income tax status - The Plan has received a determination
letter from the Internal Revenue Service dated November 4, 1994
stating that the Plan is a qualified plan under Section 401(a) of
the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the "Code") and that the Trust
is exempt from federal income tax under Section 501(a) of the Code.
Certain changes have been made to the Plan and a determination
letter has been requested from the Internal Revenue Service. The
Committee believes the Plan is being operated in compliance with
applicable requirements of the code. The Committee is not aware of
any course of action or series of events that have occurred that
might adversely affect the plan's qualified status.
Employee contributions and Employer contributions are not
included in the participant's federal taxable income in the year
such contributions are made. A participant shall not be subject to
federal income taxes with respect to participation in the Plan
until the amounts are withdrawn or distributed.
Amendment or termination of the Plan - The Employer may amend
the Plan at any time. However, no amendment, unless made to secure
approval of the Internal Revenue Service or other governmental
agency, may operate retroactively to reduce or divest the then
vested interest in the Plan of any participant, former participant
or beneficiary, or to reduce or divest any benefit payable under
the Plan unless all participants, former participants and
beneficiaries then having vested interests or benefit payments
affected thereby consent to such amendment.
The Employer may terminate the Plan at any time. Upon complete
or partial termination, the accounts of all participants affected
thereby shall become 100 percent vested, and the Committee shall
direct the Trustee to distribute the assets in the Trust Fund,
after receipt of any required approval by the Internal Revenue
Service and payment of any expenses properly chargeable thereto, to
participants, former participants, and beneficiaries in proportion
to their respective account balances.
2. Significant Accounting Policies
Investments and investment income - Investments in the common
stock of the Employer and the Putnam Mutual Funds are valued at the
last reported sales price on the last business day of the Plan year
as reported on a national securities exchange. The investments in
guaranteed investment contracts are valued at cost which
approximates market value. The Plan is in compliance with AICPA
Statement of Position 94-4, "Reporting of investment contracts held
by health and welfare benefit plans and defined contribution
pension plans," with fair market value approximating stated value
for the guaranteed investment contracts.
Security transactions are recorded on a trade date basis. The
statement of income and changes in Plan equity include net
unrealized appreciation or depreciation in market value on
investments. The Plan's financial statements are prepared on an
accrual basis.
Realized gains and losses - Realized gains and losses have been
calculated using historical cost (first in, first out).
Use of estimates in the preparation of financial statements - The
preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles requires the use of estimates from which
actual results may differ.
Prior year financial statements have been restated in order to
comply with the provisions of the AICPA Statement of Position 92-6
"Accounting and Reporting by Health and Welfare Benefit Plans."
Amounts previously reported as benefits payable have been included in
Planplan equity and the distributed amounts have been adjusted accordingly.
