    So what's the deal with this? I thought U.S. Express owned a piece of Smith? Doesn't Covenant own pieces of SRT and Star Transport out of Nashville??

    yes you should have, I have trained and also worked as a Driver Instructor, and 3rd party tester for Tennessee DMV. Shifting on the RR tracks is an automatic fail in any book.

    They are both owned by USX.

    US still owns a piece of Smith from my understanding.
