    Does anyone have any info about TransContinental Systems Cincinnati Ohio? I am looking into hiring on with them, but can't find any information about how good or bad they are with drivers. They have an ad saying they are hiring 50 drivers. Thanks.

    I've been with TCS for 2 months. Louisville to Joliet railroad and back 90% of the time. 99% drop and hook. You blow a tire on those junky containers you pay for it. Paperlogs. To be honest you can't legally run it everyday but they expect you to. Its 632 miles round trip. There are a few other yards further into Chicago they run too. They reimburse scale tickets or tolls. Fuel whereever you want. $100 cash advance each week they charge you $5 to get. Brand new 2013 peterbilts. Iyou cannot take truck home. Its a loooooong day. Those containers are a pain. Junk. Look at j.b. hunt intermidal instead. Any questions ill answer them.

    Drop and hook and you have to pay for tires on their trailers? I've been considering them for a while but thats one pill I can't swallow. I'd like to hear from an owner operator who pulls for them.

    They have tire insurance for $12.50 a week. PM me any questions. O/O were making $1.48 pm this week. 100% drop and hook. We have new dedicated routes we got from continuum and baylor. Its a great company.
