    I haven't been by it in a while but last I knew It was a few small companies and a bunch of rv storage .
    R@L was in there When they first came to Omaha but they've moved on .
    Its about a 200 door terminal so really to big for any one company ...it was also getting pretty run down last I saw with junk all over he'll .

    Yes they did. After a year on the 377 I was upgraded to the 379 above. During the late 90's the highway division got away from the corporate paint scheme and 377's in favor of solid colored 379's. I don't work there anymore but I drive by their yard all the time, today they run solid color KW T680's and T660's.

    I saw they upgraded all of their log trucks a year or so ago. Talked to one of their drivers in a purple and white Pete with a conestoga that said it was a great place.

    I figured it was a very large terminal so I was curious who today would have the freight volume to occupy something of that size. We had one terminal from the ICC era in my home town that was huge. Reddaway built a breakbulk in the 1990's that was only slightly larger.

    It's been 17 years since I worked there, I have lots of fond memories of my time at RB Browns.
