Hunt Trucking and Transportation History\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFounded in 1961, J.B. Hunt Transport Services developed into one of the largest transportation and logistics companies in North America. Originally focused on highway trucking, the company expanded its transportation services and became an important participant in the growth of railroad intermodal freight.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eDuring the latter half of the twentieth century, 40-foot highway trailers were widely used to transport manufactured goods, packaged merchandise, industrial supplies, and general freight between factories, warehouses, and regional distribution centers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe development of trailer-on-flatcar (TOFC) transportation, commonly known as piggyback service, allowed highway trailers to travel long distances by railroad while trucks provided local pickup and delivery. This combination of highway flexibility and railroad transportation helped shape the modern North American freight network.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eTrainworx N Scale J.B.
