Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
(unaudited)
Note 1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation
     The foregoing consolidated financial statements are unaudited and have been prepared from the books and records of Trinity Industries, Inc. and subsidiaries (“Trinity”, “Company”, “we” or “our”). In our opinion, all normal and recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position of the Company as of JuneSeptember 30, 2008, the results of operations for the three and sixnine month periods ended JuneSeptember 30, 2008 and 2007, and cash flows for the sixnine month periods ended JuneSeptember 30, 2008 and 2007 have been made in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. Because of seasonal and other factors, the results of operations for the sixnine month period ended JuneSeptember 30, 2008 may not be indicative of expected results of operations for the year ending December 31, 2008. These interim financial statements and notes are condensed as permitted by the instructions to Form 10-Q and should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements of the Company included in its Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2007.
Stockholders’ Equity
     On December 13, 2007, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized a $200 million stock repurchase program of its common stock. This program allows for the repurchase of the Company’s common stock through December 31, 2009. During the sixthree months and nine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2008, 471,100150,000 and 621,100 shares were repurchased under this program at a cost of approximately $12.2 million. No$3.8 million and $16.0 million, respectively. The shares wereof common stock purchased under this program forduring the three months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2008 were cash settled in October 2008. On October 3, 2008, the Company repurchased under the program 1,994,400 shares of its common stock in a privately negotiated transaction at a cost of approximately $42.2 million. Since the inception of this program through June 30,October 3, 2008, the Company had purchased a total of 575,3002,719,700 shares had been repurchased at a cost of approximately $15.1$61.1 million.
Fair Value Accounting
     In September 2007, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standard (“SFAS”) No. 157,Fair Value Measurements(“SFAS 157”). SFAS 157 introduces a framework for measuring fair value and expands required disclosure about fair value measurements of assets and liabilities. SFAS 157 for financial assets and liabilities is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. The Company adopted this standard as of January 1, 2008 and the impact of the adoption was not significant.
     SFAS 157 defines fair value as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market to that asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. SFAS 157 also establishes a fair value hierarchy which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. SFAS 157 describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair values which are listed below.
     Level 1 This level is defined as quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. The Company’s cash equivalents and restricted assets, other than cash, are United States Treasury instruments.
     Level 2 This level is defined as observable inputs other than Level 1 prices such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities. The Company’s fuel derivative instruments, which are commodity options, are valued using energy and commodity market data. Interest rate hedges are valued at exit prices obtained from each counterparty.
     Level 3 This level is defined as unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.

     Assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis are summarized below:

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
     In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141R, “Business Combinations,”and SFAS No. 160,“Accounting and Reporting Noncontrolling Interest in Consolidated Financial Statements, an amendment of ARB No. 51.”These new standards significantly change the accounting for and reporting of business combination transactions and noncontrolling interests (previously referred to as minority interests) in consolidated financial statements. Both standards are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008 and are applicable only to transactions occurring after the effective date.
     In March 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 161,Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, an amendment of FASB Statement No. 133(“SFAS 161”). SFAS 161 changes the disclosure requirements for derivative instruments and hedging activities. Entities are required to provide enhanced disclosures about (a) how and why an entity uses derivative instruments, (b) how derivative instruments and related hedge items are accounted for under StatementSFAS 133,Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities(“SFAS 133”),and its related interpretations, and (c) how derivative instruments and related hedged items affect an entity’s financial position, financial performance, and cash flows.
     SFAS 161 is intended to enhance the current disclosure framework in SFAS 133 and requires qualitative disclosures about objectives and strategies for using derivatives, quantitative disclosures about fair value amounts of gains and losses on derivative instruments, and disclosures about credit-risk related contingent features in derivative agreements.
     The provisions of SFAS 161 are effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after November 15, 2008, with early application encouraged. The provisions of SFAS 161 need not be applied to immaterial items. We are currently evaluating the potential impact of the provisions of SFAS 161.
     In May 2008, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position No. APB 14-1,Accounting for Convertible Debt Instruments That May Be Settled in Cash upon Conversion (including Partial Cash Settlement)(“APB 14-1”). APB 14-1 requires that issuers of certain convertible debt instruments that may be settled in cash upon conversion to separately account for the liability and equity components in a manner that will reflect the entity’s nonconvertible debt borrowing rate when interest costexpense is recognized in subsequent periods.
     The accounting for these types of instruments under APB 14-1 is intended to appropriately reflect the underlying economics by capturing the value of the conversion options as borrowing costs; therefore, recognizing their potential dilutive effects on earnings per share.
     The effective date of APB 14-1 is for financial statements issued for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2008 and does not permit earlier application. However, the transition guidance requires retrospective application to all periods presented and does not grandfather existing instruments. In June 2006, Trinity issued $450 million in 3 7/8% Convertible Subordinated Notes due 2036. We are currently evaluatingplan to adopt APB 14-1 on January 1, 2009. Upon adoption of APB 14-1, we expect to revise prior periods by reclassifying $152.6 million of our Convertible Subordinated Notes from debt to capital in excess of par in the impactequity section of the provisionsbalance sheet. Our interest expense will increase $4.5 million and $8.1 million for the years ended December 31, 2006 and 2007, respectively, and $6.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2008. Upon adoption, debt origination costs of APB 14-1.$3.2 million will be reclassified against capital in excess of par.

     In June 2008, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position EITF 03-6-1,Determining Whether Instruments Granted in Share-Based Payment Transactions are Participating Securities(“FSP EITF 03-6-1”). FSP EITF 03-6-1 applies to the calculation of earnings per share for share-based payment awards with rights to dividends or dividend equivalents under Statement No. 128,Earnings Per Share.Unvested share-based payment awards that contain nonforfeitable rights to dividends or dividend equivalents will be considered participating securities and will be included in the computation of earning per share pursuant to the two-class method. The effective date of FSP EITF 03-6-1 is for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning

7


after December 15, 2008, and all interim periods within those years. Early adoption is not permitted. Once effective, all prior period earnings per share data presented will be adjusted retrospectively. We are currently evaluating the impact of the provisions of FSP EITF 03-6-1.

Note 4. Equity Investment
     In 2007, the Company and five other equity investors unrelated to the Company or its subsidiaries formed TRIP Rail Holdings LLC (“TRIP Holdings”) for the purpose of providing railcar leasing and management services in North America. TRIP Holdings, through its wholly-owned subsidiary, TRIP Rail Leasing LLC (“TRIP Leasing”) purchases railcars from the Company’s Rail and Leasing Groups funded by capital contributions from TRIP Holdings’ equity investors and third-party debt. The Company agreed to provide 20% of the total of all capital contributions required by TRIP Holdings up to a total commitment of $49.0 million in exchange for 20% of the equity in TRIP Holdings. The Company will receive 20% of

10


the distributions made from TRIP Holdings to equity investors and has a 20% interest in the net assets of TRIP Holdings upon a liquidation event. The terms of the Company’s 20% equity investment are identical to the terms of each of the other five equity investors. Railcars purchased from the Company by TRIP Leasing are required to be purchased at prices comparable with the prices of all similar railcars sold by the Company during the same period for new railcars and at prices based on third party appraised value for used railcars. The manager of TRIP Holdings, Trinity Industries Leasing Company (“TILC”), a wholly owned subsidiary of Trinity, may be removed without cause as a result of a majority vote of the non-Company equity members. In 2007, the Company contributed $21.3 million in capital to TRIP Holdings equal to its 20% pro rata share of total capital received in 2007 by TRIP Holdings from the five other equity investors of TRIP Holdings. Trinity funded an additional $2.7$3.4 million and $8.5$11.9 million, respectively, for the three and sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2008, pursuant to Trinity’s 20% equity ownership obligation under the formation agreements for TRIP Holdings, totaling a $29.8$33.2 million investment in TRIP Holdings as of JuneSeptember 30, 2008. Trinity’s remaining equity commitment to TRIP Holdings is $19.2$15.8 million, which is expected to be completely funded by the end of 2009. The Company also paid $13.8 million in structuring and placement fees to the principal underwriter in conjunction with the formation of TRIP Holdings that are expensed on a pro rata basis as railcars are purchased from the Company. For the three and sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2008, $0.9$1.1 million and $2.7$3.8 million, respectively, of these structuring and placement fees were expensed, leaving a net unamortized balance of $6.0$4.9 million as of JuneSeptember 30, 2008. Such expense is treated as sales commissions included in operating costs in the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Operations. As of JuneSeptember 30, 2008, TRIP Leasing had purchased $791.4$900.8 million of railcars from the Company and plans to purchase an additional $608.6$499.2 million.
     For the three and six months ended June 30, 2008, the Rail Group sold $83.0 million and $229.0 million, respectively, and TILC sold $8.3 million and $46.2 million, respectively. For the Rail Group, these salesSales of railcars to TRIP Leasing resulted in a gainand related gains for the three and six monthsnine month periods ended JuneSeptember 30, 2008 of $19.2 million and $44.8 million, respectively, of which $3.8 million and $8.9 million, respectively, was deferred based on Trinity’s 20% equity interest.

Administrative feesrespectively. Fees for the same period were $0.9 million and $2.1 million, respectively. Forin the three and six months ended June 30, 2007, TILC sold $93.7 million of railcars to TRIP Leasing resulting in a gain of $14.4 million, of which $3.0 million was deferred based on Trinity’s 20% equity interest. Fees for the same periodprior year were insignificant.
     In June 2008, the Company entered into an agreement with an equity investor of TRIP Holdings potentially requiring Trinity to acquire from the equity investor up to an additional 5% equity ownership in TRIP Holdings if the option is exercised to its fullest extent. In that event, the Company would own a 25% equity ownership in TRIP Holdings, increasing the Company’s total commitment by $12.3 million to $61.3 million, of which $29.8$33.2 million had been paid. Should this agreement be exercised, the treatment of TRIP Holdings in the Company’s consolidated financial statements does not change. The exercise period for the agreement is from September 2008 until January 2009.
     See Note 5 of the December 31, 2007 Consolidated Financial Statements filed on Form 10-K for additional information.
Note 5. Derivative Instruments
     We use derivative instruments to mitigate the impact of increases in zinc, natural gas, and diesel fuel prices and interest rates, as well as to convert a portion of our variable-rate debt to fixed-rate debt. We also use derivatives to lock in fixed interest rates in anticipation of future debt issuances. These swaps are accounted for as cash flow hedges under SFAS 133.
     Interest rate hedges
     In anticipation of a future debt issuance, we entered into interest rate swap transactions during the fourth quarter of 2006 and during 2007. These instruments, with a notional amount of $370 million, hedged the interest rate on a portion of a future debt issuance associated with an anticipated railcar leasing transaction, which closed in May 2008. These instruments settled during the second quarter of 2008. The weighted average fixed interest rate under these instruments was 5.34%. These interest rate swaps were being accounted for as cash flow hedges with changes in the fair value of the instruments of $24.5 million of loss recorded in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss (“AOCL”) through the date the related debt issuance closed with a principal balance of $572.2 million in May 2008. The balance is being amortized over the term of the related debt. At JuneSeptember 30, 2008, the balance remaining in AOCL was $23.9$22.9 million. The effect on the consolidated statement of operations for the three and sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2008 was expense of $2.8$1.1 million and $5.0$6.1 million, respectively,respectively. The expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2008 was primarily due to the ineffective portion of the hedges associated with anticipatedhedged interest payments that will not be made and amortization expense.made.
     In May 2008, we entered into an interest rate swap transaction which is being used to fix the LIBOR component of the debt issuance which closed in May 2008. The fixed interest rate under this instrument is 4.126%. The amount recorded for

11


this instrument as of JuneSeptember 30, 2008 in the consolidated balance sheet was an asseta liability of $4.8$0.9 million, with $5.2$0.5 million of incomeexpense in AOCL. The effect on the consolidated statement of operations for the three and sixnine month periods ended JuneSeptember 30, 2008 was expense of $1.1 million.$2.3 million and $3.4 million, respectively.
     During 2005 and 2006, we entered into interest rate swap transactions in anticipation of a future debt issuance. These instruments, with a notional amount of $200 million, fixed the interest rate on a portion of a future debt issuance associated with a railcar leasing transaction in 2006 and settled at maturity in the first quarter of 2006. The weighted average fixed interest rate under these instruments was 4.87%. These interest rate swaps were being accounted for as cash flow hedges with changes in the fair value of the instruments of $4.5 million in income recorded in AOCL through the date the related debt issuance closed in May 2006.

Note 7. Warranties
     The Company provides warranties against manufacturingworkmanship and materials defects ranging from one to five years depending on the product. The warranty costs are estimated using a two step approach. First, an engineering estimate is made for the cost of all claims that have been filed by a customer. Second, based on historical claims experience, a cost is accrued for all products still within a warranty period for which no claims have been filed. The Company provides for the estimated cost of product warranties at the time revenue is recognized related to products covered by warranties and assesses the adequacy of the resulting reserves on a quarterly basis. The changes in the accruals for warranties for the three and sixnine month periods ended JuneSeptember 30, 2008 and 2007 were as follows:

     Trinity’s revolving credit facility requires maintenance of ratios related to interest coverage for the leasing and manufacturing operations, leverage, and minimum net worth. At JuneSeptember 30, 2008, there were no borrowings under our $425 million revolving credit facility. After $93.6$100.4 million was considered for letters of credit, $331.4$324.6 million was available under the revolving credit facility. Interest on the revolving credit facility is calculated at prime or LIBOR plus 75 basis points.
     On October 15, 2008, the Company sent a notice to the holders of its Convertible Subordinated Notes. This notice, as required by the Indenture, notified the holders that as a result of increases in the Company’s dividend, the Conversion Rate has been adjusted to 19.2004 and the Conversion Price has been adjusted to $52.08.
     In May 2008, Trinity Rail Leasing VI LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“TRL VI”), a limited purpose, indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Trinity, owned by Trinity through TILC, issued $572.2 million of 30-year promissory notes (the “Promissory Notes”) to financial institutions. The Promissory Notes were secured by a portfolio of railcars valued at approximately $743.1 million, operating leases thereon, and certain cash reserves. The Promissory Notes are obligations of TRL VI and are non-recourse to Trinity. TRL VI acquired the railcars securing the Promissory Notes by purchase from TILC and itsa subsidiary. The proceeds were used to repay a portion of our warehouse facility and to finance unencumbered railcars on our consolidated balance sheet. TILC entered into certain agreements relating to the transfer of the railcars to TRL VI and the management and servicing of TRL VI’s assets. The Promissory Notes bear interest at a floating rate of one-month LIBOR plus a margin of 1.50%. The LIBOR portion of the interest rate on the Promissory Notes is fixed at approximately 4.13% for the first seven years from the date of issuance of the Promissory Notes through interest rate hedges. The interest rate margin on the Promissory Notes will increase by 0.50% on each of the seventh and eighth anniversary dates of the issuance of the Promissory Notes and by an additional 2.00% on the tenth anniversary date of the issuance of the Promissory Notes. The Promissory Notes may be prepaid at anytimeany time and may be prepaid without penalty at any time after the third anniversary date of the issuance of the Promissory Notes.

     In February 2008, TILC increased its warehouse facility to $600 million with the availability period of the facility remaining through August 2009. This facility, established to finance railcars owned by TILC, had $76.3$157.3 million outstanding as of JuneSeptember 30, 2008. The warehouse facility matures August 2009 and, unless renewed, will be payable in three equal installments in February 2010, August 2010, and February 2011. Railcars financed by the warehouse facility have historically been refinanced under long-term financing agreements. Specific railcars and the underlying leases secure the facility. Advances under the facility may not exceed 78% of the fair market value of the eligible railcars securing the facility as defined by the agreement. Advances under the facility bear interest at a defined index rate plus a margin, for an all-in rate of 3.43%3.59% at JuneSeptember 30, 2008. At JuneSeptember 30, 2008, $523.7$442.7 million was available under this facility.

     The change in unrecognized tax benefits for the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2008 and 2007 was as follows:

Ending balance $27.2 $32.2  $29.6 $22.1

     The additions for the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2008, were amounts provided for tax positions previously taken in foreign jurisdictions and tax positions taken for state income tax purposes as well as deferred tax liabilities that have been reclassed to uncertain tax positions.
     The reduction for tax positions of prior years for the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2008 related primarily to the completion of state audits in which the tax position was not challenged by the state and for which the position is now effectively settled.

15


     The total amount of unrecognized tax benefits at JuneSeptember 30, 2008 that would affect the Company’s effective tax rate if recognized was $10.9$16.7 million. There is a reasonable possibility that unrecognized Federal and state tax benefits will decrease by JuneSeptember 30, 2009 due to a lapse in the statute of limitations for assessing tax. As of JuneSeptember 30, 2008, the amounts subject to a lapse in statute by JuneSeptember 30, 2009 totaled $0.4 million. Further, there is a reasonable possibility that the unrecognized tax benefits related to Federal and state tax positions will decrease significantly by JuneSeptember 30, 2009 due to settlements with taxing authorities. As of JuneSeptember 30, 2008, the amounts expected to settle or lapse in the statute of limitations by JuneSeptember 30, 2009 totaled $11.9$7.8 million.
     Trinity accounts for interest expense and penalties related to income tax issues as income tax expense. Accordingly, interest expense and penalties associated with an uncertain tax position are included in the income tax provision. The total amount of accrued interest and penalties as of JuneSeptember 30, 2008 and December 31, 2007 was $10.8$10.0 million and $8.0 million, respectively.
     Income tax expense for the three and sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2008 included $0.5$(0.9) million and $2.8$1.9 million, respectively, in interest expense and penalties related to uncertain tax positions. Income tax expense for the three and sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2007, included $2.0$(0.7) million and $2.4$1.7 million, respectively, in interest expense and penalties related to uncertain tax positions.
     We are currently under Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) examination for the tax years ended 1998 through 2002 and 2004 through 2005, thus our statute remains open from the year ended March 31, 1998, forward. Due to known disagreements with the IRS on certain issues, we expect the 2004 through 2005 examination to continue for an undeterminable period as those issues are resolved at the agent and appeals levels. We expect the 1998 through 2002 examination and the 2004 through 2005 examination to be completed within the next ninethree to six months. This could be affected by any adjustments notAll but one issue has been agreed upon by us and the IRS and the Company,that issue has been litigated in which case the statute could remain open for an undeterminable period.Tax Court. In addition, statutes of limitations governing the right of Mexico’s tax authorities to audit the tax returns of our Mexican operations remain open for the 2002 tax year forward. Our Mexican subsidiaries are currently under audit for their 2002 and 2003 tax years. Additionally our Swiss subsidiary is under audit for the 2006 tax year. We expect these non-U.S. tax examinations to be completed within the next ninethree to six months. Our various European subsidiaries, including the subsidiaries that were sold during 2006, are impacted by various statutes of limitations which are generally open from 2003 forward. An exception to this is our discontinued Romanian operations, which have been audited through 2004. Generally, states’ statutes in the United States are open from 2002 forward.

(Suit No. 49-741, Division “B” in the 25th Judicial District Court in and for the Parish of Plaquemines, Louisiana: the “Waxler Case”). To avoid a continuing commitmentA settlement of management and executive time as well as the legal, expert, and transactional costs associated with litigating the claims alleged, the Company and TMP entered into a settlement agreement in the Waxler Case thatthis case was approved by the court and became final February 9, 2008. Pursuant to the settlement agreement, the court certified the class for settlement purposes. The Company and TMP are currently working with the Court Appointed Disbursing Agent (“CADA”) to processhas prepared an Allocation Plan and Distribution Plan for the claims submitted.disbursement of settlement compensation that is pending Court approval. As of JuneSeptember 30, 2008, based on instructions from the CADA to the settlement funds escrow agent, the Company has received $2.0 million in refund of unclaimed settlement funds. See Note 19 of the December 31, 2007 Consolidated Financial Statements filed on Form 10-K for additional information.
     The settlement agreement required each class member whose individual claims will be settled via the class settlement to elect one of three, mutually exclusive settlement options.

No potential class member opted out of the class settlement.
     Other Litigation
     Transit Mix was named as a defendant in a case involving the death of an employee of an independent contractor who was working at a Transit Mix facility. Following aA jury verdict in favor of the plaintiff the case was appealed by Transit Mix and its insurers. In October 2006, the original trial court judgment was reversed and a take-nothing judgment was rendered by the Eleventh Court of Appeals, State of Texas. Plaintiffs filed a motion for rehearing in such court, which was denied. On March 22, 2007, Plaintiffs filed their Petition for Review with the Texas Supreme Court. Transit Mix filed its Response to Plaintiff’s Petition for Review on July 13, 2007. In September 2007, the Texas Supreme Court requested briefing by the parties on the underlying merits of the case. The Texas Supreme Court denied the Plaintiff’s Petition for Review on February 22, 2008, and the Plaintiff filed a Motion for Rehearing on April 9, 2008. The Motion for Rehearing was denied by the Texas Supreme Court on June 27, 2008. On September 25, 2008, Plaintiffs filed a Writ of Certiorari with the United States Supreme Court and the case is now concluded.Company plans to file a brief response in opposition.
     We also are involved in other claims and lawsuits incidental to our business. Based on information currently available, it is management’s opinion that the ultimate outcome of all current litigation and other claims, including settlements, in the aggregate will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s overall financial condition for purposes of financial reporting. However, resolution of certain claims or lawsuits by settlement or otherwise could have a significant impact on the operating results of the reporting period in which such resolution occurs.
     We are subject to Federal, state, local, and foreign laws and regulations relating to the environment and the workplace. We have reserved $8.8$8.1 million to cover our probable and estimable liabilities with respect to the investigations, assessments, and remedial responses to such matters, taking into account currently available information and our

17


contractual rights to indemnification and recourse to third parties. However, estimates of liability arising from future proceedings, assessments or remediation are inherently imprecise. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that we will not become involved in future litigation or other proceedings involving the environment and the workplace or, if we are found to be responsible or liable in any such litigation or proceeding, that such costs would not be material to the Company. Other than with respect to the foregoing, we believe that we are currently in substantial compliance with environmental and workplace laws and regulations.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
General
     The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the unaudited consolidated financial statements and related notes thereto appearing elsewhere in this document.
     In 2007, Trinity Industries Inc. (“Trinity”, “Company”, “we” or “our”) purchased 20% of the equity in newly-formed TRIP Rail Holdings LLC (“TRIP Holdings”). TRIP Holdings provides railcar leasing and management services in North America. Railcars are purchased from Trinity by a wholly-owned subsidiary of TRIP Holdings, TRIP Rail Leasing LLC (“TRIP Leasing”).
     In May 2008, Trinity Rail Leasing VI LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“TRL VI”), a limited purpose, indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Trinity, owned by Trinity through Trinity Industries Leasing Company (“TILC”), issued $572.2 million of 30-year promissory notes to financial institutions. The proceeds were used to repay a portion of our warehouse facility and to finance unencumbered railcars on our consolidated balance sheet. SeeFinancing Activities.
     On December 13, 2007, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized a $200 million stock repurchase program of its common stock. This program allows for the repurchase of the Company’s common stock through December 31, 2009. During the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2008, 150,000 and 621,100 shares were repurchased under this program at a cost of approximately $3.8 million and $16.0 million, respectively. The shares of common stock purchased during the three months ended September 30, 2008 were cash settled in October 2008. On October 3, 2008, the Company repurchased under the program 1,994,400 shares of its common stock in a privately negotiated transaction at a cost of approximately $42.2 million. Since the inception of this program through October 3, 2008, the Company had repurchased a total of 2,719,700 shares at a cost of approximately $61.1 million.

The increase2008 as compared to the same periods in revenues2007. Revenues for the Construction Products Group can be attributed primarilyimproved for the nine month period ended September 30, 2008 due to increased sales volumes in our highway products business sales generated by our entry into the asphalt business, and an increase in various raw material costs that resulted in higher sales prices. These increases were offset by decreased volumes in our bridge girder business and the impact of divestitures in the concrete and aggregates businesses.

Inland Barge Group revenues increased primarily as a result of greater barge shipments, and a change in the mix of barges sold.sold, and an increase in raw material costs resulting in higher sales prices. An increase in structural wind towers sales was the primary reason for the increase in revenues in the Energy Equipment Group.

     Operating profit for the three and sixnine month periods ended JuneSeptember 30, 2008 increased as the result of overall higher revenues, an increase in the size of our lease and management fleet, and higher barge and structural wind tower sales. These increases in operating profit were offset by higher raw material costs a decline in railcar sales from the lease fleet, and a decline in volumescompetitive pricing pressure in the railcar market.market for new railcars.
     Other Income and Expense.Interest expense, net of interest income, was $23.8$24.3 million and $42.5$66.8 million, respectively, for the three and sixnine month periods ended JuneSeptember 30, 2008 compared to $16.2$17.0 million and $30.0$47.0 million, respectively, for the same periods last year. Interest income decreased $1.6$1.2 million over the same quarter last year and $3.0$4.2 million over the same sixnine month period last year primarily due to lower investment income as a result of lower interest rates and a decrease in cash available for investment. Interest expense increased $6.0$6.1 million and $9.5$15.6 million, respectively, over the same periods last year due to an increase in debt levels and expense of $2.8 million and $5.0 million, respectively, forlevels. For the three and sixnine month periodsperiod ended JuneSeptember 30, 2008, primarily$4.5 million of interest expense related to the ineffective portion of interest rate hedges. The increasedecrease in Other, net for the three and six month periodsperiod ended JuneSeptember 30, 2008 was primarily due to a write-down of an equity investment in the prior year quarter, partially offset by a decrease in the gain on disposition of property, plant, and equipment compared to the same periodsperiod in the prior year. For the nine month period ended September 30, 2008, the decrease in Other, net was primarily due to a decrease in the gain on disposition of property, plant, and equipment compared to the same period in the prior year, partially offset by a write-down of an equity investment in the prior year period.

     Operating profit for the Rail Group decreased $24.2$39.7 million and $25.1$64.8 million, respectively, for the three and sixnine month periods ended JuneSeptember 30, 2008 compared to the same periods last year. This decrease was primarily due to decreased volumes, the competitive pricing environment, increases in raw material costs, and a reserve for future losses on railcar sales. Steel costs have risenrose significantly during the first nine months of the year and remain volatile. On certain fixed price railcar contracts, actual cost increases and surcharges have caused the total cost of the railcar to exceed the amounts originally anticipated, and in some cases, the actual contractual sale price of the railcar. A reserve for the anticipatedestimated losses on fixed price contracts of future railcar sales of $3.0$2.9 million and $5.9 million was recorded during the second quarterthree and nine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2008.2008, respectively.
     In the three months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2008, railcar shipments included sales to the Leasing Group of $252.6$323.0 million compared to $283.0$235.4 million in the comparable period in 2007 with a deferred profit of $23.1$9.9 million compared to $50.3$37.3 million for the same period in 2007.

     The increase in revenues and operating profit for the three and sixnine month periods ended JuneSeptember 30, 2008 compared to the same periods in 2007 was primarily attributable to an increase in volume in our highway products business, sales generated by our entry into the asphalt business, and an increase in various raw material costs that have resulted in higher sales prices. These increases were offset by a decrease in volumes in our bridge girder business and the impact of divestitures in the concrete and aggregates businesses. Revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2008 were also offset by lower revenues in the concrete and aggregates businesses that took place during 2007.due to adverse weather conditions in Texas and Louisiana. Operating profit for the three months ended September 30, 2008 compared to the same period in 2007 decreased due to volume decreases in the concrete and aggregates businesses, unfavorable weather conditions, and increased raw material prices. Additional sales resulting in higher margins in our highway products business partially offset the declines in our concrete and aggregates businesses. Operating profit for the nine months ended September 30, 2008 as compared to the same period in 2007 increased due to the increased sales in the highway products and asphalt businesses offset by lower margins in the concrete and aggregates businesses for the same reasons as the three month period ended September 30, 2008.

     In May 2008, Trinity Rail Leasing VI LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“TRL VI”), a limited purpose, indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Trinity, owned by Trinity through TILC, issued $572.2 million of 30-year promissory notes (the “Promissory Notes”) to financial institutions. The Promissory Notes were secured by a portfolio of railcars valued at approximately $743.1 million, operating leases thereon, and certain cash reserves. The Promissory Notes are obligations of TRL VI and are non-recourse to Trinity. TRL VI acquired the railcars securing the Promissory Notes by purchase from TILC and itsa subsidiary. The proceeds were used to repay a portion of our warehouse facility and to finance unencumbered railcars on our consolidated balance sheet. TILC entered into certain agreements relating to the transfer of the railcars to TRL VI and the management and servicing of TRL VI’s assets. The Promissory Notes bear interest at a floating rate of one-month LIBOR plus a margin of 1.50%. The LIBOR portion of the interest rate on the Promissory Notes is fixed at approximately 4.13% for the first seven years from the date of issuance of the Promissory Notes through interest rate hedges. The interest rate margin on the Promissory Notes will increase by 0.50% on each of the seventh and eighth anniversary dates of the issuance of the Promissory Notes and by an additional 2.00% on the tenth anniversary date of the issuance of the Promissory Notes. The Promissory Notes may be prepaid at anytimeany time and may be prepaid without penalty at any time after the third anniversary date of the issuance of the Promissory Notes.

Derivative Instruments
     We use derivative instruments to mitigate the impact of increases in zinc, natural gas, and diesel fuel prices and interest rates, as well as to convert a portion of our variable-rate debt to fixed-rate debt. We also use derivatives to lock in fixed interest rates in anticipation of future debt issuances. These swaps are accounted for as cash flow hedges under SFAS 133.
     Interest rate hedges
     In anticipation of a future debt issuance, we entered into interest rate swap transactions during the fourth quarter of 2006 and during 2007. These instruments, with a notional amount of $370 million, hedged the interest rate on a portion of a future debt issuance associated with an anticipated railcar leasing transaction, which closed in May 2008. These instruments settled during the second quarter of 2008. The weighted average fixed interest rate under these instruments was 5.34%. These interest rate swaps were being accounted for as cash flow hedges with changes in the fair value of the instruments of $24.5 million of loss recorded in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss (“AOCL”) through the date the related debt issuance closed with a principal balance of $572.2 million closed in May 2008. The balance is being amortized over the term of the related debt. At JuneSeptember 30, 2008, the balance remaining in AOCL was $23.9$22.9 million. The effect on the consolidated statement of operations for the three and sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2008 was expense of $2.8$1.1 million and $5.0$6.1 million, respectively,respectively. The expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2008 was primarily due to the ineffective portion of the hedges associated with anticipatedhedged interest payments that will not be made and amortization expense.made.
     In May 2008, we entered into an interest rate swap transaction which is being used to fix the LIBOR component of the debt issuance which closed in May 2008. The fixed interest rate under this instrument is 4.126%. The amount recorded for this instrument as of JuneSeptember 30, 2008 in the consolidated balance sheet was an asseta liability of $4.8$0.9 million, with $5.2$0.5 million of incomeexpense in AOCL.

     During 2005 and 2006, we entered into interest rate swap transactions in anticipation of a future debt issuance. These instruments, with a notional amount of $200 million, fixed the interest rate on a portion of a future debt issuance associated with a railcar leasing transaction in 2006 and settled at maturity in the first quarter of 2006. The weighted average fixed interest rate under these instruments was 4.87%. These interest rate swaps were being accounted for as cash flow hedges with changes in the fair value of the instruments of $4.5 million in income recorded in AOCL through the date the related debt issuance closed in May 2006. The balance is being amortized over the term of the related debt. At JuneSeptember 30, 2008, the balance remaining in AOCL was $3.6$3.5 million. The effect of the amortization on the consolidated statement of operations for the three and sixnine month periods ended JuneSeptember 30, 2008 was income of $0.1 million and $0.2$0.3 million, respectively. The effect on the same periods in the prior year was $0.1 million and $0.2$0.3 million, respectively.

The effect of the settled diesel fuel contracts on the consolidated statement of operations for the three and sixnine month periods ended JuneSeptember 30, 2008 was income of $8.5$1.1 million. The amount recorded in the consolidated balance sheet for natural gas hedges was a liability of $2.0 million as of September 30, 2008 and $1.2 million of expense in AOCL for both derivative instruments. The effect of both derivatives on the consolidated statement of operations for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2008 was expense of $0.4 million and $9.9income of $9.5 million, respectively, including losses of $1.7 million and gains of $6.3 million and $6.9$5.2 million resulting from the mark to market valuation for the three and sixnine months periods ended JuneSeptember 30, 2008, respectively.
