Red Star was closed long before the buy out. And for the record, the new president for Holland was the president for Red Star when it as shut down.
He was then miraculously promoted to a CFO position at USFC. He was kept on after the buyout and Mr C was fired from Holland and this Zimmerman was brought in. Now Mr O has moved up again.
Good luck Holland guys, he is a bean counter and a politician.
I still scratch my head & wonder how TNT/USF could turn a family owned union carrier that was debt free & had an O.R. in the 70's & low 80's into a "money losing operation" that USF discarded.
Ex TNT/USF Red Star CEO's : John W-fired, Fred R-fired , Brad J-fired , Steve C- promoted to Holland then fired by YRC & John O'S-promoted to USF & now Holland.
Its too bad that Roadway didn't buy RSEL. At one time we were just as good as NPMF & probably would have prospered just as New Penn has. Instead we were flushed down the crapper by TNT/USF's poor upper management.
