Contingencies [Abstract]
Contingencies	Note 14 – Contingencies The Company is involved in various warranty and repair claims and, in certain cases, related pending and threatened legal proceedings with its customers in the normal course of business. In the opinion of management, the Company’s potential losses in excess of the accrued warranty and legal provisions, if any, are not expected to be material to the Company’s consolidated financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. The Company received cash payments of $15,733 and $1,410 during 2015 and 2017, respectively, for Alabama state and local incentives related to its capital investment and employment levels at its Cherokee, Alabama (“Shoals”) facility. Under the incentive agreements a certain portion of the incentives may be repayable by the Company if targeted levels of employment are not maintained for a period of up to six years from the date of the incentive. In the event that employment levels drop below the minimum targeted levels of employment and any portion of the incentives is required to be paid back, the amount is unlikely to exceed the deferred liability balance of $7,496 as of September 30, 2019. As part of a settlement agreement reached with one of its customers, the Company agreed to pay $7,500 to settle all claims related to a prior year’s commercial dispute. During the three months ended September 30, 2019, the Company paid $3,500 of the settlement amount and the remaining $4,000 will be paid over a period of three years, or on an accelerated basis in the event both parties agree to accelerate delivery of railcars currently in the backlog. In addition to the foregoing, the Company is involved in certain other pending and threatened legal proceedings, including commercial disputes and workers’ compensation and employee matters arising out of the conduct of its business. While the ultimate outcome of these other legal proceedings cannot be determined at this time, it is the opinion of management that the resolution of these other actions will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

The Company is involved in various warranty and repair claims and, in certain cases, related pending and threatened legal proceedings with its customers in the normal course of business.
