I think it's safe to say JO is one of them.

I didn't mean buy them & kick us out. My understanding is that they are buying some YRC, Holland and Reddaway terminals & leasing them back to us. (you can see the Estes press release here: Estes Express Lines - About - Press Release
Also of note, there were a couple of appraisers at the JO terminal on Friday.
Some will say it's business as usual, or that they needed to do it to appease the banks & come up with cash flow. Either way, it would make me uneasy to know that our competition owns our terminal(s).

Lets get a good grip everybody. YRC now has numerous empty terminals that YRC knows it will not need, nor use. Obviously Billy Dollars wants to pull needed cash out of those vacated terminals and help stabilize the YRC debt problem. I despise Zollars, since his leadership or lack of it, helped create the $ mess, but I do agree (on this issue only), his mindset is correct. I also believe, very shortly more YRC terminals ( Holland & Reddaway included) that are located within 80 - 100 miles of each other will also be merged.

Empty terminals is one thing. Ours (JO) is not empty, at least not yet.

I hear you now Brother. Empty head Zollars must be up to more no good. I think the Brothers ought to pay Billy Boy a private visit, like many years ago. I can guarantee you one thing, Mr. James Hoffa Sr.,would be first in line to enlighten Billy that he needs to get his MIND right, and right now! :Flame-On:
They're not going to sell and lease back the empty terminals, that would be silly. Only the operating ones.

I posted the same question on the yrc board thinking the same thing you are thinking. I got bashed by a bunch of very educated :loser:'s .They told me i should ask Zollars personally to get the answer. but what i think they meant was nobody on this forum was smart enough to give me the answer so they would rather post smarta-s comments. Although one helpful fella said the hole story was in transport topics.

This company has listings in alot of states for Roadway barns. Check it out, and maybe you can find out which ones were not bought by ESTES....

Were they closed , having been consolidated, barns that you saw? That would be money in the bank, outright sales with no leaseback....

Its still a nice link to look at though. Thanks K653.
One of the terminals in Macon Ga was a Ga Hwy Express-Transus -Dugan terminal
Hey! You said no rumors only fact!!! (You were tired of rumors) Now tell me please how many of us drivers KNOW the facts? Tell the whole story before you call us names. :smilie_132:
Hense the ask Zollars
Estes moved into the old Roadway terminal in Col. Ohio, not sure if it was part of this deal or not.
Someone posted a link to all the terminals that were sold/leased in the YRC Forum after it happened. Aside from verifying the link, I never paid much attention because I didn't really care. You might try going to the YRC Forum and using the search feature (upper right corner) to find it.
