Trinity Forms New Marine

Marketing Corporation—

Keeney Named President

Trinity Industries, Inc. of Dal- las has announced the formation of a new corporation to market its marine products. The new cor- poration, Trinity Marine Market- ing, Inc., will be responsible for marketing the marine products manufactured by its Ingalls Iron

Works and Equitable Shipyards facilities. The Ingalls Iron Works subsidiary of Trinity has ship- yards in Decatur, Ala. and Bain- bridge, Ga. The Equitable sub- sidiary has yards at Madisonville,

La. and New Orleans.

The principal product of these shipyards is river hopper barges for the grain and coal trade op- erating on the U.S. inland water- ways system. Production capabil- ities and assembly-line techniques employed by these facilities com- bine to make Trinity the world's largest barge producer, the com- pany states. Trinity's expertise in the construction of LASH and

SEABEE barges on an assembly- line basis has contributed to its success as a leading producer of river hopper barges.

Trinity Marine Marketing is headed by C.M. Keeney as presi- dent. Mr. Keeney was formerly president of Trinity's Equitable

C.M. Keeney

Shipyards subsidiary. He served in that position for 11 years prior to the formation of the new mar- keting corporation, which is head- quartered at 3616 1-10 Service

Road South, Suite 109, Metairie,

La. 70001.
