is entered into by and between Trinity Industries, Inc., a Delaware corporation
(the "Company"), and Acqua Wellington Private Placement Fund, Ltd., a company
organized under the laws of the Commonwealth of the Bahamas (the "Purchaser"),
for the purchase and sale of shares of the common stock, par value $1.00 per
share (the "Common Stock"), of the Company by the Purchaser, in the manner, and
upon the terms, provisions and conditions set forth in this Agreement.

         WHEREAS, the parties desire that, upon the terms and subject to the
conditions contained herein, the Company shall issue and sell to the Purchaser
and Purchaser shall purchase shares of the Common Stock; and

         WHEREAS, such purchase and sale will be made in reliance upon the
provisions of Section 4(2) or Regulation S ("Regulation S") of the United States
Securities Act of 1933, as amended and regulations promulgated thereunder (the
"Securities Act"), and/or upon such other exemption(s) from the registration
requirements of the Securities Act as may be available with respect to any or
all of the purchases of Common Stock to be made hereunder.

         NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the representations, warranties and
agreements contained herein and other good and valuable consideration, the
receipt and legal adequacy of which is hereby acknowledged by the parties, the
Company and the Purchaser hereby agree as follows:

         1. PURCHASE PRICE.

                  (a) Upon the following terms and subject to the conditions
contained herein, the Purchaser hereby agrees to purchase 620,000 shares of the
Company's Common Stock from the treasury of the Company (the "Shares") at a per
share price of $21.00 and for an aggregate purchase price of $13,020,000 (the
"Purchase Price").

                  (b) The Company has authorized and has reserved and covenants
to continue to reserve, free of preemptive rights and other similar contractual
rights of stockholders, a sufficient number of its authorized but unissued
shares of its Common Stock, to effect the issuance of the Shares.

                  (c) The closing (the "Closing") under this Agreement shall
take place at the offices of the Jenkens & Gilchrist Parker Chapin LLP, The
Chrysler Building, 405 Lexington Avenue, New York, New York 10174 at 1:00 p.m.
(eastern time) upon the satisfaction of each of the conditions set forth in
Section 4 hereof (the "Closing Date").

                  (d) The Company shall deliver to the Purchaser on or prior to
the Closing Date a certificate representing the Shares. Upon receipt of the
certificate representing the Shares,





the Purchaser shall pay the Purchase Price therefor by check, wire transfer or
such other form of payment as shall be mutually agreed upon by the Company and
the Purchaser.

         2. REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES AND COVENANTS OF THE PURCHASER. The
Purchaser represents and warrants to the Company, and covenants for the benefit
of the Company, as follows:

                  (a) This Agreement has been duly authorized, validly executed
and delivered by the Purchaser and is a valid and binding agreement and
obligation of the Purchaser enforceable against the Purchaser in accordance with
its terms, subject to limitations on enforcement by general principles of equity
and by bankruptcy or other laws affecting the enforcement of creditors' rights
generally, and the Purchaser has full power and authority to execute and deliver
this Agreement and the other agreements and documents contemplated hereby and to
perform its obligations as provided hereunder and thereunder.

                  (b) The Purchaser has received and carefully reviewed copies
of the Public Documents (as hereinafter defined) and has access to the
Commission Documents (as hereinafter defined). The Purchaser understands that no
federal, state, local or foreign governmental body or regulatory authority has
made any finding or determination relating to the fairness of an investment in
any of the Shares and that no federal, state, local or foreign governmental body
or regulatory authority has recommended or endorsed, or will recommend or
endorse, any investment in any of the Shares. The Purchaser, in making the
decision to purchase the Shares, has relied upon independent investigation made
by it and its advisors, if any, and has not relied on any information or
representations made by third parties or by the Company or its officers,
directors, employees, agents, accountants or attorneys. The Purchaser and its
advisors, if any, have been furnished with all materials relating to the
business, finances and operations of the Company and materials relating to the
offer and sale of the Shares which have been requested by the Purchaser. The
Purchaser and its advisors, if any, have been afforded the opportunity to ask
questions of the Company. The Purchaser has sought such accounting, legal and
tax advice as it has considered necessary to make an informed investment
decision with respect to its acquisition of the Shares. The Purchaser
understands that it (and not the Company) shall be responsible for its own tax
liabilities that may arise as a result of this investment or the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement.

                  (c) The Purchaser understands that the Shares are being
offered and sold to it in reliance on specific provisions of federal and state
securities laws and that the Company is relying upon the truth and accuracy of
the representations, warranties, agreements, acknowledgments and understandings
of the Purchaser set forth herein for purposes of qualifying for exemptions from
registration under the Securities Act, and applicable state securities laws.

                  (d) The Purchaser is, and at all times relevant to the offer
to sell the Shares was, an "accredited investor" as defined under Rule 501 of
Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act.

                  (e) The Purchaser is and will be acquiring the Shares for such
Purchaser's own account, for investment, and not with a view to any resale or
distribution of the Shares in



2


whole or in part, in violation of the Securities Act or any applicable
securities laws. The Purchaser is not a "U.S. person" within the meaning of
Regulation S under the Securities Act and the Purchaser has executed this
Agreement outside the United States within the meaning of Regulation S under the
Securities Act. To the extent that the instrument representing the Shares is
registered in the name of the Purchaser's nominee, the Purchaser confirms that
such nominee is acting as custodian for the Purchaser of the securities
represented thereby.

                  (f) The offer and sale of the Shares is intended to be exempt
from registration under the Securities Act. The Purchaser understands that the
Shares purchased hereunder have not been, and may never be, registered under the
Securities Act and that none of the Shares can be sold or transferred unless
they are first registered under the Securities Act and such state and other
securities laws as may be applicable or, in the opinion of counsel reasonably
acceptable to the Company, an exemption from registration under the Securities
Act is available (and then the Shares may be sold or transferred only in
compliance with such exemption and all applicable state and other securities
laws to the reasonable satisfaction of counsel for the Company). The Purchaser
will not sell any of the Shares in violation of this Section 2(f).

                  (g) The Purchaser (i) has such knowledge and experience in
financial and business matters as to be capable of evaluating the merits and
risks of an investment in the Company; and (ii) recognizes that such Purchaser's
investment in the Company involves a high degree of risk.

                  (h) The Purchaser is capable of evaluating the risks and
merits of an investment in the Shares by virtue of its experience as an investor
and its knowledge, experience, and sophistication in financial and business
matters and such Purchaser is capable of bearing the entire loss of its
investment in the Shares.

                  (i) The Purchaser is neither a registered broker-dealer nor an
affiliate of a registered broker-dealer.

                  (j) Neither the Purchaser nor any of its affiliates, officers
or agents will solicit any material non-public information from the Company.

                  (k) The Purchaser has no agreement or arrangement with the
Company or with any third party for the sale or disposition of the Common Stock
to be purchased pursuant to this Agreement.

                  (l) The Purchaser covenants with the Company as follows: The
Purchaser's trading and distribution activities with respect to the Shares will
be in compliance with all applicable state and federal securities laws, rules
and regulations (including, without limitation, regulation M promulgated under
the Securities Act) and the rules and regulations of the New York Stock
Exchange. Neither the Purchaser nor any of its affiliates (as that term is
defined in Rule 405 promulgated under the Securities Act) has taken, nor will
any of them take, directly or indirectly, any action designed to cause or that
would result in, or which constitutes or that might reasonably be expected to
constitute, the stabilization or manipulation of the price of the Common Stock
to facilitate the purchase, sale or resale of the Common Stock or the Shares.

                  (m) The Purchaser is a company duly organized, validly
existing and in good standing under the laws of the Commonwealth of the Bahamas.

                  (n) The execution and delivery of this Agreement and the
Registration Rights Agreement, the acquisition of any of the Shares and the
consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the
Registration Rights Agreement by the Purchaser, will not (i) conflict with or
result in a breach of or a default under any of the terms or provisions of
Purchaser's organizational documents, or (ii) result in a violation of any
material provision of any law, statute, rule, regulation, or any existing
applicable decree, judgment or order by any court, federal or state regulatory
body, administrative agency, or other governmental body having jurisdiction over
the Purchaser.

         3. REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES AND COVENANTS OF THE COMPANY. The
Company represents and warrants to the Purchaser, and covenants for the benefit
of the Purchaser, as of the date of this Agreement, that except as set forth in
the disclosure schedule of even date hereof delivered to Purchaser by the
Company (the "Disclosure Schedule"), which exceptions shall be deemed to be a
part of and to qualify the representations and warranties to which they refer as

existing and in good standing under the laws of the state of Delaware, with full
corporate power and authority to own, lease and operate its properties and to
conduct its business as currently conducted, and is duly registered and
qualified to conduct its business and is in good standing in each jurisdiction
or place where the nature of its properties or the conduct of its business
requires such registration or qualification, except where the failure to
register or qualify would not have a Material Adverse Effect. For purposes of
this Agreement, "Material Adverse Effect" shall mean any effect on the business,
prospects, operations, properties or financial condition of the Company that is
material and adverse to the Company and its subsidiaries, taken as a whole.

                  (b) The Company has furnished the Purchaser with copies of the
Company's most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K for fiscal year ended March 31,
2001 (the "Form 10-K") filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the
"Commission") and its Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended September 30,
2001 as amended by its Form 10-Q/A filed with the Commission on November 21,
2001 (the "Form 10-Q" and its current reports on Form 8-K filed on the following
dates: August 1, 2001, August 16, 2001, September 18, 2001 and October 29, 2001
(as amended by its Form 8-K/A filed on December 28, 2001) (collectively, the
"Form 8-Ks," and together with the Form 10-K and the Form 10-Q, the "Public
Documents"). The Public Documents at the time of their filing did not include
any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact
necessary in order to make the statements contained therein, in light of the
circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. As used herein,
"Commission Documents" means all reports, schedules, forms, statements and other
documents filed by the Company with the Commission pursuant to the reporting
requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange
Act"), including material filed pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the
Exchange Act.

                  (d) Each of this Agreement and the Registration Rights

been duly authorized, validly executed and delivered on behalf of the Company
and is a valid and binding agreement and obligation of the Company enforceable

full power and authority to execute and deliver this Agreement and the other
agreements and documents contemplated hereby and to perform its obligations
hereunder and thereunder.

                  (e) The execution and delivery of this Agreement and the
Registration Rights Agreement, the issuance of any of the Shares and the
consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the
Registration Rights Agreement by the Company, will not (i) conflict with or
result in a breach of or a default under any of the terms or provisions of, (A)
the Company's certificate of incorporation or by-laws, or (B) of any provision
of any material indenture, mortgage, deed of trust or other material agreement
or instrument to which the Company is a party or by which it or any of its
material properties or assets is bound, (ii) result in a violation of any
material provision of any law, statute, rule, regulation, or any existing
applicable decree, judgment or order by any court, federal or state regulatory
body, administrative agency, or other governmental body having jurisdiction over
the Company, or any of its material properties or assets or (iii) result in the
creation or imposition of any material lien, charge or encumbrance upon any
material property or assets of the Company or any of its subsidiaries pursuant

which may be required to be made by the Company with the Commission, or New York

Agreement).

                  (h) There is no action, suit, claim or proceeding before or by

applicable federal and state securities laws in connection with the offer,
issuance and sale of the Shares hereunder. Neither the Company nor anyone acting
on its behalf, directly or indirectly, has or will sell, offer to sell or

the Securities Act and any other applicable federal and state securities laws.
Neither the Company nor any of its affiliates, nor any person acting on its or
their behalf, has engaged in (1) any form of general solicitation or general
advertising (within the meaning of Regulation D under the Securities Act) or (2)
any directed selling efforts (within the meaning of Regulation S under the
Securities Act) in connection with any of the Shares.

                  (k) None of this Agreement, the Disclosure Schedule or the
Registration Rights Agreement contains any untrue statement of a material fact

thereof issued and outstanding as of February 28, 2002 are set forth on Schedule
3(l) of the Disclosure Schedule. All of the outstanding shares of the Company's
Common Stock have been duly and validly authorized, and are fully paid and

securities. Except as disclosed in the Commission Documents, the Company is not
a party to, and it has no knowledge of, any agreement restricting

the voting or transfer of any shares of the capital stock of the Company. The
offer and sale of all capital stock, convertible securities, rights, warrants,
or options of the Company issued prior to the Closing complied in all material
respects with all applicable federal and state securities laws, and no
stockholder has a right of rescission or damages with respect thereto which is
reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse Effect. The Company has furnished
or made available to the Purchaser true and correct copies of the Company's

issue a press release or otherwise make a public statement or announcement with
respect to this Agreement prior to or after the Closing Date, the Company shall
reasonably consult with the Purchaser on the form and substance of such press
release or other disclosure.

                  (o) Neither the Company nor any of its officers or agents
shall disclose any material non-public information about the Company to the
