We know there is more to trucking than just the load and the road. Our Drivers frequently go above and beyond for motorists they encounter on the road, and we love to share their stories. We received a letter commending one of our Drivers whose actions made a lasting impression on them. Thank you, Thaddieus S., for making us proud!

On a frigid January morning, ATS Logistics and ATS Heavy Haul worked together to move a historic locomotive from the Becker, MN, Xcel Energy generating station, to its new home at the display track of the St. Cloud Area Rail Legacy Museum (STARail) in Waite Park.
Although the move itself wasn’t far in distance, the dimensions of this load provided their own set of challenges. The locomotive had to be taken off of its drive wheel assemblies to fit on the trailer, and each assembly had to be hauled and placed on the tracks individually, within a very small tolerance for the locomotive placement.
ATS dedicated more than 200 trucks in our company-owned fleet to haul needed relief supplies to areas impacted by Hurricane Harvey.

On July 7, ATS had the privilege to fly Navy EOD Technician, Taylor Morris and his wife, Danielle, back from a medical retreat in Maine to Waterloo, IA.

ATS was chosen to manage the transportation of a priceless national artifact, from the Atlanta Cyclorama in the historic Grant Park neighborhood to the Atlanta History Center, located on 33 acres in the heart of Atlanta, Georgia’s Buckhead district.
