"Tom Finkbiner is an intermodal transportation veteran who brings us broad expertise in the rail, trucking and air-freight modes, and is strongly committed to customer service," said Don Orris, Pacer's chief executive officer. "He will be a valuable addition to our board as Pacer continues to grow."
Finkbiner, who served as vice president, Intermodal, for Norfolk Southern from 1987-1999, has also held senior executive positions with North American Van Lines, Airborne Freight Corp. (NYSE:AFC), and Roadway Express (NasdaqNM:ROAD).
