Yes, Roadway Express is now part of YRC Worldwide Inc. In 2003, Roadway Corporation merged with Yellow Transportation to form YRC, which later became known as YRC Freight. The integration of these companies has led to the consolidation of their brands under the YRC umbrella.
Yellow Freight and Roadway are now one company called YRC. (see related link at bottom)
No they are not. About the only union freight lines left are UPS Freight, YRC ( Yellow/Roadway), and ABF Freight.
This rumour is a new one to me. I can't find anything online about any such purchase, and I'm a bit doubtful that this will happen. Of the two, Yellow-Roadway Corporation is the much larger company.
Yellow-Roadway Corporation, ABF Freight Systems, UPS, FedEx (excluding owner-operator divisions such as Custom Critical).
Yes they are. Along with every other Roadway And Yellow terminal in the country. The company is now known as YRC, Will be surprised if they make it to the end of the year.
The Top 5 Biggest Trucking Companies in the US by Revenue (meaning that they make the most money), are 1) United Parcel Service (UPS), 2) Yellow Freight System, 3) Schneider, 4) Roadway Express, and finally 5) Consolidated Freightways.
