My notes under Hot Wheels -

Pardon the caps, I'm not yelling, the notations in my system go in all upper case.

USE WITH EXTREME CAUTION (PREFERABLY NOT AT ALL), OF 4 LOADS, ONLY ONE WENT SMOOTH. DOES NOT COMMUNICATE PROPERLY NOR CARE ABOUT FREIGHT - MJM 12/15/09

3 strikes in 4 shipments, mind you it's a year and a half later now...

Keep well,

Mike

I had a conversation with Nick in disptach. He informed me that due to a legal issue with Mattel that they had to change their company name.

Anyone else hearing that?

I heard the other name they thought of using was Mr. Potato Head Road Trucking before Hasbro got wind of it.

Hot Wheels Express

Assuming these are still both the same companies...

We gave Nick a few opportunities last year (one in September, one in October). They've come a long way, both picked up and delivered on time and there was much stronger communication this time around.

Have not hooked up since October.

Keep well,

Mike

Anyone have anything current on Road Train Express with respect to service?
Thanks in advance.

Horrible company. They booked a load with us at 09:00 am for pick up the same day and at 22:00 when my client called saying the truck never showed their excuse was they still were not unloaded. No call to inform us or anything. I would never use them again.

I don't know if it is just this load I booked with them but it was LTL out of Iowa and they waited until 4:30 today to tell me they overbooked their truck and no longer had room to do the load. I booked this first thing this morning and they said their truck was loaded at 2:50 when they became aware that they wouldn't have room and waited until 4:30 to tell me. WILL NOT USE AGAIN

Hi all,

Earlier tonight we booked this carrier on last minute load for NS-GA. Im taking a leap of faith with this afterhours booking. Hes setup with us and up to date but 0 loads on the books.

I dealt with Harry, he does seem professional and thorough. Will update tmrw
