ATLANTA — The top boss at RoadLink USA made big promises of changing the business model for intermodal trucking and logistics.

RoadLink was formed from seven intermodal trucking companies to create what Chief Executive Officer John Oren said is the first operation of its kind in the United States and the largest in North America. With 50 locations across the United States, has 1,500 trucks and drivers and estimated combined revenues of $160 million.
RoadLink is one of two companies — the other is Esco Transportation of Houston — that are showing they intend to create national intermodal powerhouses by “rolling up,” or buying out, and combining drayage operations ("Houston Firms to Create National Drayage Carriers," 2-14, p. 3).
