In 1950, a colorblind farm kid named Wayne started hauling gasoline out of a small Minnesota town with one leased truck. Seventy-five years later, his family runs one of the largest bulk trucking operations in America — 700 trucks, 1,200 trailers, three generations, and a stack of buyout offers they keep turning down.

This is the full story of Wayne Transport — how a coin flip saved a farm, how a brother lost in the Korean War almost ended the company before it started, and why every truck in the fleet is red. We sat down with the third generation in Rosemont, Minnesota — right next door to the Flint Hills Resources refinery — for an inside look at a family-owned tanker and dry bulk carrier that has outlasted deregulation, recession, and every competitor that tried to buy them out.

If you've ever wondered what it actually takes to build a petroleum hauling business, run a tanker fleet, or keep a family trucking company alive across three generations — this is the one to watch.
