Pullman's Trailmobile Division has entered the leasing business through a new Chicago-based unit, T/M Leasing, headed by vice-president and general manager Carl T. Crumrine. Chairman W. Irving Osborne Jr. called it a logical step for the world's largest producer of commercial transportation equipment, extending sales, leasing and rental across rail, highway, sea and air. Facilities open in the Midwest, East and South early in 1969.
Pullman Incorporated, Chicago, Ill., has announced that its Trailmobile Division, a leading builder of truck trailers and containers, has entered the leasing field. To be known as T/M Leasing, the organization will be headquartered in Chicago.
W. Irving Osborne Jr., chairman and president of Pullman Incorporated, announced that T/M Leasing will be headed by Carl T. Crumrine as vice-president and general manager. Mr. Crumrine came to Trailmobile in August, 1967, as vice-president, marketing, after resigning as president of Berman Leasing.
The creation of T/M Leasing is a logical forward step for the world's largest producer of commercial transportation equipment, Mr. Osborne said. Henceforth our transportation equipment divisions will be offering an across-the-board service that encompasses selling, leasing and rental of rolling stock that moves not only on the rails, but on highway, sea and air.
Initial plans call for the establishment early in 1969 of T/M leasing and rental facilities in the Midwest, East and South. The company will offer customers long-term finance leases, maintenance leases and short-term rentals.
