Acknowledgments and Sources The 2008 TRANSPORT TOPICS Top 100 is a special project of the Transport Topics Publishing Group that features financial and operating information on the largest for-hire freight carriers in the United States, Canada and Mexico. Data were compiled from annual reports of publicly owned companies and directly from the management of privately owned companies. In some cases, revenue estimates were used to determine sector rankings. Senior Features Writer Daniel P. Bearth is the project coordinator, with assistance from research intern Andrew Chido. The design is by Patrick Donlon, assistant director of art and production. Cover Design by Shawn Torres and Louisa Wimberly.
