LTL trucker completes restructuring, posts Q2 results as Zollars retires
In one of the most significant days in its history, less-than-truckload carrier YRC Worldwide Inc. today named a new CEO and eight-member board of directors, formally announced the retirement of the executive who has run the company since 1999, completed a financial restructuring critical to its ongoing success, and released second-quarter results that it said shows some daylight after three dark years.
YRC confirmed late today that long-time transportation executive James L. Welch was named the company's CEO, effective immediately.

Yellow Transportation became YRC National following its integration with Roadway Express, which YRC bought in 2003. Full Story.....
