Orange on back door leads me to believe that it was TNT or USF already.

There was no orange in tnt, and redstar was gone before usf

I worked for USF / TNT Red Star from 1993 until 1999.

The orange back door believes me to believe it is TNT.

ooops I'm getting the tnt/usf conversion in 96 with the red star closure where the union made a nasty back door deal with YRC in conjunction with the purchase of usf.......................
ooooops, did I say that out loud?
Just me and my paranoid mind.........
LONG LIVE ED TAYLOR................

And the poor employees are still taking it in the back door.

I feel for the employees who had to start over at Holland........
And the employees who had to start over and Dugan, then Holland.

Pullin3, After 5 years I would have thought that we would have heard all the backroom information that went into the Red Star strike/walkout/job action or whatever they officially called it.
I really expected that someone (Virtue) would have leaked the whole story.

I don't believe that there was a conspiracy, I think that the IBT just screwed up. And to think that I could be retired now if only Hoffa had not been out of town on other union business. Somewhere without a cellphone tower. If only.........


It is nice to see that someone who is way out in Oregon would still remember Ed Taylor. I guess that he got the shaft along with the rest of the Holland Philadelphia drivers.

2631It's always nice just to think it was a conspiracy.If we only could follow the paper trail..but your right,something that just blew up out of control.and to this day I will still believe YRC had something to do with itAs far as the trailer in the picture,kinda looks like it was from the seventies looking at some of the cars in the photo..so that would make it pre TNT...
