********Bill.......I've had pretty good results with a trucking broker
called "Hopewell Enterprises", the contact person is Delores, who moved up
to the Boise area from California a couple of years ago.(208 373 3988)

Most of my dealings have been with partial loads, e.g. engines, rippers,
blades, track groups in the 3 to 10,000 lb category.  She is currently
handling a D7 17A engine for me coming from Bowling Green, Ky to Twin Falls,
Id. (3500 lbs @450.00)

...Delores has helped me on several
occasions, but not all.  She has given me the best rate on 80% ( a guess) of
my inquiries but has been the fastest and most reliable  of any I have dealt
with.  The quickest I remember was two hours delay from the time I gave her
a call to quote for 5500 lbs of D9 rails from NE Ohio to Ok. City until they
were loaded and on the way.

So let the fun begin! Best of luck to ya!
