Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On May 29, 2009, Trinity Industries Inc. announced in a news release that its subsidiary, Trinity Industries Leasing Company, has renewed its railcar leasing warehouse facility through February 2011. The facility was set to mature in August 2009. Due to the lower level of demand for railcars at this time and the Company’s resulting need for less financing of this type, the size of the warehouse facility commitment was reduced from $600 million to $475 million.

A copy of the Second Amendment and Restatement dated May 29, 2009 of Warehouse Loan Agreement dated as of June 27, 2002 (“Second Amendment and Restatement”) is attached as exhibit 10.19 and is incorporated by reference. The description of the Second Amendment and Restatement contained herein does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by the full text of the exhibit.
