Consolidated Freightways
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Consolidated Freight, based in Vancouver, Washington[1], was the 3rd biggest trucking company in the US. In the 1930s they started their own truck manufacturing operation, Freightliner, now part of DaimlerChrysler. In the late 1990s, the non-union, less-than-truckload part of the firm was split off to form CNF (later renamed Con-way), while the unionized truckload portion continued as Consolidated Freightways. CF filed for liquidation bankruptcy in 2002 and has ceased operations.
