TTX Company
TTX Company (formerly Trailer Train) is a private company that owns a large fleet of freight cars and provides them to stockholding railroads. It also provides freight car management services (information and accounting). TTX is the largest railroad car provider in the United States. ==History== TTX was originally founded in 1955 by the Pennsylvania Railroad (predecessor to Conrail), the Norfolk and Western Railway (predecessor to Norfolk Southern), and Rail-Trailer Corporation. 6,000 Pennsylvania Railroad employees entered possible names in a drawing for the new company, and the name "Trailer Train" won. Trailer Train's original goals were to standardize TOFC railcar practices, foster the growth of transportation, provide its members with the best available equipment at the lowest cost, and keep its members abreast of new developments. In 1991, the company changed its company name from Trailer Train to TTX.
