I just heard that a new YRC change of ops has supposedly been requested and has been posted at 309. Has anyone heard about or seen a new change?
:(
:(
I heard this afternoon that the rumors at 211-Akron are 1. that 218-Cleveland will become a breakbulk again and will handle westbound freight and part if not all of the outbound city freight out of Cleveland and Akron, 2. That Akron will remain a breakbulk and possibly handle some of the Akron city freight too. 3. That Toledo will again become a breakbulk and handle some of the rail freight now going through Chicago and put it on the rail at that new intermondal rail yard south of Toledo in northwest Ohio.Was told in a preshift about a week ago from the T.M. at 211-Akron that there is going to be a C.O.O. soon. Nothing more specific than that yet!
Dam! Thought maybe I could make it a week or so after my 4 days off before the "I heards", started again. Well at least I made a trip out and back. I did hear though that they are looking at closing all of the breakbulks within 600 miles of 135, and moving all of the work to 422.I heard this afternoon that the rumors at 211-Akron are 1. that 218-Cleveland will become a breakbulk again and will handle westbound freight and part if not all of the outbound city freight out of Cleveland and Akron, 2.

These are just rumors right now, but something is going on because YRC just hired 5 to 6 new dock supervisors and are training them at the Akron breakbulk. Some people think they are brininging more freight into Akron, and some people think that they are training these new supervisors to eventually work at Cleveland or Toledo. Managers at 211 are claiming ignorance about any of this so far! What else is new?!
Pardon me for not knowing the number system, but what or where is 135 and 422?
I still am in a letter mentality like CGB, MBK and LCP.
If you can't tell I'm an old Yellow type of guy! GO YRC!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Let's hope one of the next changes made is to go back to the letter system for terminals!!
Yup, that'll fix everything.
But shouldn't that step be forwards?"A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step" ... From the quote by Chinese philosopher Laozi (c 604 bc - c 531 bc).
135 is Harrisburg Pa. and 422 is Nashville Tn. I'm retired from 859 or AQE in Yellow Dog language.Pardon me for not knowing the number system, but what or where is 135 and 422?

Absolutely! But like those old 2 stroke Jimmys, you could occasionally get them running backwards for a bit! :poster_oops:
Thats before my time at Roadway. I do remember the Macks with the rh mirror that was way the heck out there.Mud could really move forward in his old Mack B-61! Check out the video!
