Overview
Professional Transportation Inc. drives railroad crews to and from work assignments through over-the-road trips and dedicated yard vans across the continental United States.

Its CREW and CREW Nav systems support trip management, vehicle tracking and communication between dispatch and drivers. Alongside rail crew work, PTI sells mining and utility transport, employee shuttles, courier deliveries and vehicle transport services. The company began operating in 1980 and has its corporate headquarters in Evansville, Indiana.
