The Indiana Harbor Belt Railroad Co. (IHB) recently named Jim Roots general manager to succeed Gary Gibson, who retired.

With 37 years’ experience in railroad operations, Roots previously held various operating positions at CSX Transportation, including GM of service planning and assistant vice president of service design.
