At that time Snyder’s Dray and Transfer in Bismarck, North Dakota hauled sand, gravel and freight with horses and wagons. Snyder subsequently merged with Joseph Greenstein and Julius Roswick, operating Roswick-Greenstein-Snyder, Inc. for a short time before changing the name in 1938 to Midwest Motor Express, Inc.MIDWEST MOTOR EXPRESS, INC. expanded by applying for additional authority and through the following acquisitions: Midnite Express, Inc. (1945), Schmidt Truck Lines (1956), Auto X-Press (1956), Culp Truck Lines (1957), Daniel Auto Express (1962), operating authority of Advanced-United Expressways (1965), operating authority of Ringsby United (1965) and operating authority and equipment of Twin City Freight (1988).Deregulation created challenges as well as opportunities.
