                    AMENDED AND RESTATED EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT

         This AMENDED AND RESTATED EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT (this "Agreement"),
dated as of March 1, 2003, is by and between Pacer Global Logistics, Inc., an
Ohio corporation (the "Company"), and Jeffrey R. Brashares (the "Employee").

                                    PREAMBLE

         The Company and the Employee are entering into this Agreement to amend
and restate the Original Agreement (as defined in Section 12) to set forth the
terms and conditions of the Employee's continued employment with the Company.

         ACCORDINGLY, in consideration of the foregoing and the mutual
representations, warranties, covenants and agreements set forth in this
Agreement, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and
sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged by the Company and the Employee,
the Company and the Employee hereby agree as follows:

     Section 1. Duties. On the terms and subject to the conditions contained in
this Agreement, the Employee will be employed by the Company as an Executive
Vice President of the overall Company and as the divisional President of the
Company's Transportation Services Division, responsible for all internal
operations of such division (the "Duties"), reporting to and subject to the
supervision and direction of the Company's Board of Directors (the "Board") and
the Company's more senior officers. The Employee shall perform the Duties and
such other duties and services on behalf of the Company and its subsidiaries and
other affiliates consistent with such position as reasonably may be assigned to
the Employee from time to time by the Board or the Company's more senior
officers. Anything contained in this Section 1 or elsewhere in this Agreement to
the contrary notwithstanding, the Employee acknowledges and agrees that the
Employee's position and title with the Company may be subject to change in the
event that the Company is merged with or into or otherwise consolidated or
combined with or into Pacer or any of its other subsidiaries or affiliates;
provided, however, that the foregoing acknowledgement and agreement shall in no
way limit or adversely affect the Employee's rights to terminate his employment
hereunder for Good Reason pursuant to the applicable provisions of Section 7(c).

     Section 2. Term. The Employee's employment hereunder shall be for the
period (the "Employment Period") that commenced on January 1, 2003, and will end
on the date that such employment is terminated in accordance with the applicable
provisions of Section 6 or Section 7, as the case may be.

     Section 3. Time to be Devoted to Employment. During the Employment Period,
the Employee shall devote substantially all of the Employee's working energies,
efforts, interest, abilities and time exclusively to the business and affairs of
the Company and its subsidiaries and other affiliates. The Employee shall not
engage in any other business or activity that, in the reasonable judgment of the
Board, would conflict or interfere with the performance of the Employee's duties
as set forth herein, whether or not such activity is pursued for gain, profit or
other pecuniary advantage

<PAGE>
     Section 4. Base Salary; Bonus; Benefits.

     (a) During the Employment Period, the Company (or any of its subsidiaries
or other affiliates) shall pay the Employee a minimum annual base salary (the
"Base Salary") of $250,000, payable in such installments (but not less often
than monthly) as is generally the policy of Pacer and its subsidiaries from time
to time with respect to the payment of regular compensation to their respective
executive officers. During the Employment Period, the Employee will be entitled
to (i) no less than four (4) weeks vacation per calendar year occurring during
the Employment Period, which shall accrue and be taken in accordance with the
Company's policy in effect from time to time, (ii) up to $400 per month for
country club dues and up to $1,700 per month for an automobile allowance, and
(iii) such paid holidays and other benefits as may be made available from time
to time to other executive officers of Pacer and its subsidiaries generally,
including, without limitation, participation in such health, life and disability
insurance programs and retirement or savings plans, if any, as Pacer and its
subsidiaries may from time to time maintain in effect, subject to Pacer's and
its subsidiaries' rights from time to time to amend, modify, change or terminate
in any respect any of their respective employee benefit plans, policies,
programs or benefits.

     (b) In addition to the Base Salary and benefits set forth in Section 4(a),
subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Employee shall be
entitled to receive (1) a cash bonus for the fiscal year of the Company
commencing January 1, 2003, and ending December 31, 2003, in the fixed amount of
$322,000 (the "2003 Bonus"), and (2) a cash bonus for the fiscal year of the
Company commencing January 1, 2004, and ending December 31, 2004, in the fixed
amount of $322,000 (the "2004 Bonus," and together with the 2003 Bonus, the
"Fixed Bonuses"). Each Fixed Bonus that shall become payable under this
Agreement shall be paid in equal quarterly installments (or, at the Company's
sole option, in more frequent equal installments) no later than thirty (30) days
following the end of each calendar quarter (e.g., on or prior to April 1, 2003,
in the case of the first quarterly installment for calendar year 2003). Anything
contained in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding:

          (i) if the Employee's employment with the Company is terminated at any
     time on or after January 1, 2003, and on or before December 31, 2003, for
     any reason other than a termination by the Company without "cause" pursuant
     to Section 7(b) or a termination by the Employee for "good reason" pursuant
     to Section 7(c), the Employee will not be entitled to receive, and neither
     the Company nor any of its subsidiaries or other affiliates shall be
     obligated to pay the Employee, any remaining unpaid portion of the 2003
     Bonus or the 2004 Bonus;

          (ii) if the Employee's employment with the Company is terminated at
     any time on or after January 1, 2003, and on or before December 31, 2003,
     by the Company without "cause" pursuant to Section 7(b) or by the Employee
     for "good reason" pursuant to Section 7(c), the Employee shall be entitled
     to receive, to the extent not previously paid, the 2003 Bonus and the 2004
     Bonus, payable in accordance with the foregoing terms and conditions of
     this Section 4(b);

          (iii) if the Employee's employment with the Company is terminated at
     any time on or after January 1, 2004, and on or before December 31, 2004,
     for any reason

                                       2

<PAGE>
     other than a termination by the Company without "cause" pursuant to Section
     7(b) or a termination by the Employee for "good reason" pursuant to Section
     7(c), the Employee will not be entitled to receive, and neither the Company
     nor any of its subsidiaries or other affiliates shall be obligated to pay
     the Employee, any remaining unpaid portion of the 2004 Bonus; and

          (iv) if the Employee's employment with the Company is terminated at
     any time on or after January 1, 2004, and on or before December 31, 2004,
     by the Company without "cause" pursuant to Section 7(b) or by the Employee
     for "good reason" pursuant to Section 7(c), the Employee shall be entitled
     to receive, to the extent not previously paid, the 2004 Bonus, payable in
     accordance with the foregoing terms and conditions of this Section 4(b).

     (c) Commencing with the fiscal year of the Company beginning on January 1,
2005, in addition to the Base Salary and benefits set forth in Section 4(a), the
Employee shall be entitled to participate during the Employment Period in the
Company's performance bonus plan or program as in effect from time to time with
respect to the Company's similarly situated executive officers (the "Bonus
Plan"), subject in all cases to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and
the Bonus Plan as in effect for the period in question. The amount of such
performance bonus, if any, that may be awarded and payable to the Employee with
respect to each fiscal year of the Company ending after December 31, 2004, and
occurring during the Employment Period, shall be targeted at fifty percent (50%)
of the Base Salary in effect for such fiscal year, with the actual amount of
such performance bonus, if any, being determined by the Board in its sole and
absolute discretion based on and to the extent of the achievement or
satisfaction of such targets, goals and conditions as may be provided in the
Bonus Plan for such fiscal year and as the Board otherwise may determine (which
may include business, financial, operating and/or other performance measures
applicable to the Company and/or its subsidiaries and other affiliates, as well
as individual performance criteria determined by the Board). The performance
bonus, if any, awarded and payable to the Employee under the Bonus Plan with
respect to each fiscal year of the Company ending after December 31, 2004, and
occurring during the Employment Period (including any pro rated amount payable
pursuant to the further terms and conditions of this Section 4(c)) shall be paid
at such time or times and in such manner as performance bonuses are paid to the
other executive officers of the Company generally. The Employee's rights to
participate in, and to receive a performance bonus under, the Bonus Plan in
effect for any such fiscal year shall be subject to the Company's right at any
time and from time to time to amend, modify, change or terminate the Bonus Plan
in any respect. Anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary
notwithstanding:

          (i) if the Employee's employment with the Company is terminated at any
     time after on or after January 1, 2005, for any reason other than a
     termination by the Company without "cause" pursuant to Section 7(b) or a
     termination by the Employee for "good reason" pursuant to Section 7(c), the
     Employee will not be entitled to receive, and neither the Company nor any
     of its subsidiaries or other affiliates shall be obligated to pay the
     Employee, any performance bonus that previously may have been awarded by
     the Board with respect to the fiscal year of the Company in which such
     termination occurred or thereafter; and

                                       3

<PAGE>
          (ii) if the Employee's employment with the Company is terminated at
     any time after on or after January 1, 2005, by the Company without "cause"
     pursuant to Section 7(b) or by the Employee for "good reason" pursuant to
     Section 7(c), the Employee shall be entitled to receive that portion of the
     performance bonus, if any, that previously may have been awarded by the
     Board and that may be payable for the fiscal year of the Company during
     which such termination occurs pro rated through the date of such
     termination based on the number of days elapsed from the beginning of such
     fiscal year through the termination date over three hundred and sixty-five
     (365) days, payable in accordance with the terms and conditions of Section
     4(c).

     (d) All references herein to compensation to be paid to the Employee are to
the gross amounts thereof that may be due hereunder. The Company shall have the
right to deduct therefrom all sums that may be required to be deducted or
withheld under any provision of law (including, without limitation, social
security payments, income tax withholding, and any other deduction required by
law) as in effect at all relevant times during the term of this Agreement.

     Section 5. Reimbursement of Expenses. During the Employment Period, the
Company reasonably shall reimburse the Employee in accordance with the Company's
policy for all reasonable and necessary traveling expenses and other
disbursements incurred by the Employee for or on behalf of the Company in
connection with the performance of the Employee's duties hereunder upon
presentation of appropriate receipts or other documentation therefor, in
accordance with all applicable policies of the Company.

     Section 6. Disability or Death. If, during the Employment Period, the
Employee is incapacitated or disabled by accident, sickness or otherwise
(hereinafter, a "Disability") so as to render the Employee mentally or
physically incapable of performing the services required to be performed by the
Employee under this Agreement for any period of ninety (90) consecutive days or
for an aggregate of one hundred and eighty (180) days in any period of three
hundred and sixty (360) consecutive days, the Company may, at any time
thereafter, at its option, terminate the Employee's employment under this
Agreement immediately upon giving the Employee written notice to that effect. In
the event of the Employee's death, the Employee's employment will be deemed
terminated as of the date of death.

     Section 7. Termination.

     (a) The Company may terminate the Employee's employment hereunder at any
time for "cause" by giving the Employee written notice of such termination,
containing reasonable specificity of the grounds therefor. For purposes of this
Agreement, "cause" shall mean (i) the Employee's willful misconduct with respect
to the business and affairs of the Company or any of its subsidiaries or other
affiliates, (ii) the Employee's willful neglect of the Employee's duties or the
failure to follow the lawful and reasonable directions of the Board or more
senior officers of the Company to whom the Employee reports, including, without
limitation, the violation of any material policy of the Company or any of its
subsidiaries or other affiliates that is applicable to the Employee, (iii) the
Employee's material breach of any of the provisions of this Agreement or any
other material written agreement between the Employee and the Company or any of
its subsidiaries or other affiliates and, if such breach is capable of being
cured, the Employee's failure to cure such breach within thirty (30) days of
receipt of written

                                       4

notice thereof from the Company or any of its subsidiaries or other affiliates,
(iv) the Employee's commission of a felony, (v) the Employee's commission of an
act of fraud or financial dishonesty with respect to the Company or any of its
subsidiaries or other affiliates, or (vi) the Employee's conviction for a crime
involving moral turpitude or fraud. A termination pursuant to this Section 7(a)
shall take effect immediately upon the giving of the notice contemplated hereby.

     (b) The Company may terminate the Employee's employment hereunder at any
time without "cause" by giving the Employee written notice of such termination,
which termination shall be effective as of the date set forth in such notice,
provided that such date shall not be earlier than the date of such notice.

     (c) The Employee may terminate his employment hereunder at any time for
"good reason" by giving the Company written notice of such termination,
containing reasonable specificity of the grounds therefor, which termination
shall be effective as of the date the Company is deemed to have received such
notice pursuant to Section 13. For purposes of this Agreement, "good reason"
shall mean (i) any reduction in the Employee's then-current Base Salary; (ii)
any reduction in the benefits required under this Agreement to be provided by
the Company to the Employee, and if such reduction is capable of being cured,
the Company's failure to cure the same within thirty (30) days after the
Company's receipt of written notice thereof from the Employee; (iii) any breach
by the Company of its material obligations to the Employee under this Agreement
and, if such breach is capable of being cured, the Company's failure to cure

notice thereof from the Employee; and (iv) the Employee's principal office is
relocated to any location that is more than one hundred (100) miles from the
Columbus, Ohio, metropolitan area without the Employee's consent.

     Section 8. Effect of Termination.

     (a) Upon the effective date of termination of the Employee's employment
under this Agreement for any reason other than a termination by the Company
without "cause" pursuant to Section 7(b) or a termination by the Employee for

beneficiaries or estate shall have any further rights under this Agreement or
any claims against the Company or any of its subsidiaries or other affiliates
arising out of this Agreement, except the right to receive, within thirty (30)
days after the effective date of such termination (or such earlier period as may
be required by applicable law):

<PAGE>
     Employee participated during the Employment Period; provided, however, that
     the Employee shall not be entitled to receive any benefits under any
     benefit program that have accrued during any period if the terms of such
     program require that the beneficiary be employed by the Company as of the
     end of such period; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not be
     deemed to constitute a waiver of the Employee's rights to continue coverage
     pursuant to the applicable provisions of the Consolidated Omnibus Budget
     Reconciliation Act of 1993 (COBRA), subject to the applicable terms and
     conditions thereof; and

          (iv) if such termination occurs pursuant to Section 6 as a result of

     diem basis to the effective date of such termination (in either case over a
     year of 365 days).

     (b) Upon the effective date of termination of the Employee's employment
under this Agreement by the Company without "cause" pursuant to Section 7(b) or

other affiliates arising out of this Agreement, except the right to receive,

law):

     conduct prohibited by Section 9 (regardless of the extent to which such
     Section may be enforced under applicable law), the right to receive the

                                       6

<PAGE>
          (iv) if such termination occurs after December 31, 2004, and provided

and agrees that this Section 9(d) shall be in addition to and independent of,

inventions, improvements, technical information and suggestions reasonably
relating to the business of the Company and its subsidiaries and other
affiliates (collectively, the "Inventions") that the Employee may develop or
acquire during the Employment Period (whether or not during usual working
hours), together with all Intellectual Property Rights associated with or
related to the Inventions. In connection with the previous sentence, (a) the
Employee, at the expense of the Company (including a reasonable payment (based
on the Employee's last per diem earnings) for the time involved if the Employee
is not then in the Company's employ or receiving severance payments from the

promptly such applications, assignments, descriptions and other instruments as
may be necessary or proper in the opinion of the Company to vest title to the
Inventions and any Intellectual Property Rights associated with or related to
the Inventions in the Company and to enable it to obtain and maintain the entire
right and title thereto throughout the world, and (b) the Employee shall render
to the Company, at its expense (including a reasonable payment (based on the
Employee's last per diem earnings) for the time involved if the Employee is not
then in the Company's employ or receiving severance payments from the Company
pursuant to Section 8(b)(ii), or if the Employee has not received any severance
payment with respect to such time period), reasonable assistance as it may
require in the prosecution of applications for such Intellectual Property
Rights, in the prosecution or defense of interferences or infringements that may
be declared involving any Intellectual Property Rights, and in any litigation in
which the Company or any of its subsidiaries or other affiliates may be involved
relating to the Inventions or any such Intellectual Property Rights.

to such time period), and upon reasonable notice, the Employee, at all times
during and after the Employment Period, shall furnish such information and
assistance to the Company and its subsidiaries and other affiliates as they may
reasonably require in connection with any issue, claim or litigation in which
the Company or any such subsidiary or other affiliate may be involved. If such a
request for assistance occurs after the expiration of the Employment Period,
then the Employee shall be required to render assistance to the Company only to
the extent that the Employee can do so without materially affecting the
Employee's other business obligations to his employer and other third parties.

     Section 12. Entire Agreement; Amendment and Waiver. This Agreement contains
the entire agreement and understanding between the Employee and the Company and
any predecessor of the Company, and any of their respective Affiliates, with
respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes any and all prior and
contemporaneous agreements and understandings between the Employee and the
Company or any predecessor of the Company, or any of their respective
Affiliates, regarding the subject matter hereof (including the Employment

                                       9

<PAGE>
Agreement dated as of December 22, 2000, and the Amended and Restated Employment
Agreement dated as of September 1, 2001 (together, the "Original Agreement"),
between the Employee and Rail Van LLC, an Ohio limited liability company and
predecessor-in-interest to Pacer Global Logistics, Inc., a wholly-owned
subsidiary of the Company. Other than this Agreement, there are no other
agreements or understandings continuing in effect relating to the subject matter
hereof (except that the parties acknowledge the existence of the separate and
independent provisions contained in Section 7.9 of the Purchase Agreement). No
waiver, amendment or modification of any provision of this Agreement shall be
effective unless in writing and signed by the Employee and the Company. The
waiver by either party of a breach of any provision of this Agreement by the
other party shall not operate or be construed as a waiver of any subsequent
breach by such other party. In consideration of the Employee's continued
employment with the Company hereunder and the other payments and consideration
inuring to the benefit of the Employee hereunder, the Employee waives and
releases the Company and its Affiliates from any and all claims, demands,
actions, causes of action, losses, liabilities and obligations whatsoever,
whether known or unknown, fixed or contingent, matured or unmatured, arising
prior to the date hereof, whether under the Original Agreement or otherwise in
connection with or relating to the Employee's employment with the Company or any
of it Affiliates prior to the date hereof, including any arising under federal,
state and local labor, employment, civil rights and anti-discrimination laws
(including the Age Discrimination in Employment Act, the Americans With
Disabilities Act and Title VII of the Civil Rights Act) and any other
restrictions on the Company's and its subsidiaries' rights with respect to the
modification or termination, for whatever reason, of the employment of its
employees; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not apply to, and shall
not be deemed to release, any right or claim of the Employee, whenever arising,
to be indemnified by the Company or any of its affiliates under and to the
extent of the applicable terms and provisions of the Company's or such
affiliate's charter, certificate or articles of incorporation, or by-laws.

     Section 13. Notices.

     (a) All notices or other communications pursuant to this Agreement shall be
in writing and shall be deemed to be sufficient if delivered personally,
telecopied, sent by nationally-recognized, overnight courier, or mailed by
registered or certified mail (return receipt requested), postage prepaid, to the
parties at the following addresses (or at such other address for a party as
shall be specified by like notice):

              Telephone No.:  (904) 485-1001
              Facsimile No.:  (904) 485-1019

          (ii) if to the Employee, to him at his last known address contained in
     the records of the Company.

     (b) All such notices and other communications shall be deemed to have been
given and received (i) in the case of personal delivery, on the date of such
delivery, (ii) in the case of delivery by telecopy, on the date of such delivery
(if sent on a business day where sent, and if not sent on such a business day,
then on the next business day where sent after the date sent), (iii) in the case
of delivery by nationally-recognized, overnight courier, on the next business

     Section 14. Headings. The section headings in this Agreement are for
convenience only and shall not control or affect the meaning of any provision of
this Agreement.

     Section 15. Severability. It is the desire and intent of the parties that
the provisions of this Agreement be enforced to the fullest extent permissible
under the law and public policies applied in each jurisdiction in which
enforcement is sought. Accordingly, in the event that any provision of this
Agreement would be held in any jurisdiction to be invalid, prohibited or
unenforceable for any reason, such provision, as to such jurisdiction, shall be
ineffective, without invalidating the remaining provisions of this Agreement or
affecting the validity or enforceability of such provision in any other
jurisdiction. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if such provision could be more
narrowly drawn so as not to be invalid, prohibited or unenforceable in such
jurisdiction, it shall, as to such jurisdiction, be so narrowly drawn, without
invalidating the remaining provisions of this Agreement or affecting the
validity or enforceability of such provision in any other jurisdiction.

     Section 16. Remedies. The Employee acknowledges and understands that the
provisions of this Agreement are of a special and unique nature, the loss of
which cannot be adequately compensated for in damages by an action at law, and
thus, the breach or threatened breach of the provisions of this Agreement would
cause the Company irreparable harm. The Employee further acknowledges that in
the event of a breach or any of the covenants contained in Section 9, Section
10, or Section 11, the Company shall be entitled to immediate relief enjoining
such violations in any court or before any judicial body having jurisdiction
over such a claim. All remedies hereunder are cumulative, are in addition to any
other remedies provided for by law and, to the extent permitted by law, may be
exercised concurrently or separately, and the exercise of any one remedy shall
not be deemed to be an election of such remedy or to preclude the exercise of
any other remedy.

     Section 17. Representation. The Employee hereby represents and warrants to
the Company that (i) the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement
by the Employee

                                       11

<PAGE>

does not breach, violate or cause a default under any agreement, contract or
instrument to which the Employee is a party or any judgment, order or decree to
which the Employee is subject, and (ii) the Employee is not a party to or bound
by any employment agreement, consulting agreement, non-compete agreement,
confidentiality agreement or similar agreement with any other person or entity,
except for certain existing non-competition covenants from the Employee in favor
of the Company, which the Employee affirms are continuing and in full force and
effect and have been complied with in all respects.

     Section 18. Benefits of Agreement; Assignment. The terms and provisions of
this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties
hereto and their respective successors, assigns, representatives, heirs and
estates, as applicable. This Agreement shall not be assignable by any party
hereto without the prior written consent of the other party hereto, except that
the Company may assign this Agreement or its rights hereunder to Pacer, a direct
or indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Pacer or the Company, or to any person or
entity succeeding to all or any substantial portion of their respective
businesses; provided, however, that in the case of an assignment to Pacer or any
of its subsidiaries or other affiliates, the Company shall continue to be liable
for or otherwise guarantee the performance of the obligations of the Company
hereunder.

     Section 19. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and
construed in accordance with the domestic laws of the State of Ohio without
giving effect to any choice of law provision or rule (whether of the State of
Ohio or any other jurisdiction) that would cause the application of the laws of
any jurisdiction other than the State of Ohio. The parties consent to disputes
being resolved exclusively in a court of competent jurisdiction located in the
State of Ohio.

     Section 20. Mutual Waiver of Jury Trial. THE PARTIES WISH THAT APPLICABLE
LAWS APPLY TO THE RESOLUTION OF ANY DISPUTES ARISING UNDER THIS AGREEMENT AND
THE SUBJECT MATTER HEREOF, AND THAT THEIR DISPUTES BE RESOLVED BY AN EXPERIENCED
PERSON APPLYING SUCH APPLICABLE LAWS. THEREFORE, TO ACHIEVE THE BEST COMBINATION
OF THE BENEFITS OF THE JUDICIAL SYSTEM AND APPLICABLE LAWS, THE PARTIES HERETO
WAIVE ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, SUIT OR PROCEEDING BROUGHT TO
ENFORCE OR DEFEND ANY RIGHTS OR REMEDIES UNDER THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY DOCUMENTS
RELATED HERETO.

     Section 21. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of
counterparts, and each such counterpart shall be deemed to be an original
instrument, but all such counterparts together shall constitute but one
agreement.

                                   * * * * * *
