A global transportation asset lessor, GATX owns and leases railcars—tank cars, covered hoppers, and gondolas—to shippers and railroads across North America, Europe, and India, carrying everything from chemicals and petroleum to grain and cement. The company was founded in Chicago in 1898 when Max Epstein used his commission to buy 48 used refrigerated railcars for a Pittsburgh brewery that needed to ship beer. Its name comes from its old corporate title, General American Transportation Corporation, plus the "X" that railroads assign to private car owners—so the company's initials literally became its brand.
Select a row to see that insider’s individual transactions. † Sum of the holdings confirmed in the 12 months before this insider's last filing. A Form 4 reports a holding per line — held directly, or through a named trust, partnership or foundation, and in each share class separately — never a person’s total. Lines not restated in that time are left out and shown apart: an active filer restates what they still hold, so a line they did not restate is more often an entity since renamed, whose shares a successor line reports too. An amber marker means some were left out.
