The increase in transportation equipment to $405.3 million in 2015 from $346.1 million in 2014 was due primarily to the purchase of tractors and containers.

Included in the transportation equipment is a capital lease obligation entered into for $26.4 million in 2011. The balances as of December 31, 2015 and 2014, net of accumulated amortization, were $14.7 million and $17.4 million, respectively.

Depreciation and amortization expense related to property and equipment was $35.9 million, $28.3 million and $20.2 million for 2015, 2014 and 2013, respectively, which includes $2.6 million of amortization expense associated with a capital lease for each of the years ending 2015, 2014 and 2013. This amortization expense is included in transportation costs. Transportation equipment depreciation is included in transportation costs.
