GATX Corporation Company Profile
GATX never tried to unite Georgia and Texas, but the holding company does bring together some diverse businesses. After reorganizations and divestitures, the company operates three divisions: Rail (tank and freight car and locomotive leasing), Specialty (leases, affiliate investments, and loans), and American Steamship Company (a shipping company with a fleet of self-unloading ships operating on the Great Lakes). GATX owns, leases, or manages about 166,000 railcars, nearly three-quarters of which are deployed in North America, with the remainder in Europe. Rail is the company's biggest line of business; it owns or manages nearly 700 locomotives.
