JACKSONVILLE, Fla. -- Trailer Bridge, Inc. (Nasdaq:TRBR) -- The Wall Street Transcript has published an in-depth interview with John McCown, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Trailer Bridge, in which he talks at length about the Company.

The entire 2,500 word interview is available free online at http://www.twst.com/ceos.htm.> Trailer Bridge (founded in 1991) provides integrated trucking and marine freight service to and from all points in the U.S. mainland and Puerto Rico, bringing efficiency, environmental and safety benefits to domestic cargo in that traffic lane. The Company's total transportation system utilizes its own trucks, drivers, trailers, containers, U.S. built ocean-going tugs and barges, and marine facilities to provide biweekly service between Jacksonville, FL and San Juan. This single carrier approach provides Trailer Bridge's customers with cost efficiencies, the ability to track its cargo through a single provider and effectively addresses today's heightened security.

In describing the Company's advantages over its competitors Mr. McCown stated, "Our assets and freight system put us in the best position to consistently deliver better overall supply chain economics, which makes our customers' own business more competitive and better able to grow."

With regard to Trailer Bridge's growth record Mr. McCown stated, "Anyone who saw the potential and bought at the end of 2001 was rewarded with appreciation of 61% in 2002, 158% in 2003 and 72% in 2004 for a three-year compound rate of return of 93% per year."
