Yellow Corp.’s shutdown has opened the door for Estes Express Lines, Pitt Ohio and more to make greater inroads in the Buffalo, N.Y., Niagara region.

The U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware approved the sale of 23 terminal leases owned by Yellow Corp. to six bidders for an aggregate price of $82.89 million, documents show.

Estes Express Lines was the high spender in the latest round of bidding for freight terminals owned or leased by bankrupt less-than-truckload carrier Yellow Corp., court documents show.

Executives from Estes Express Lines recently shared details and lessons learned about the company’s response after an October cyberattack hampered the carrier’s operations.

Estes Express Lines’ information technology systems are “completely restored” after a cyberattack earlier in October, according to Chief Operating Officer Webb Estes.

Estes Express Lines late Oct. 12 said its rating and quoting system, as well as telephone lines and email access, were again operational following a cyberattack earlier in the month.

Estes Express Lines on Oct. 6 said a large share of its core IT infrastructure systems were “once again operational” following a cyberattack earlier in the week.

Estes Express Lines on Oct. 3 confirmed that its IT systems were the target of an ongoing cyberattack, but said its trucks were still moving freight.

Estes Express Lines upped the ante in the fight for 169 terminals owned by bankrupt Yellow Corp. ahead of a key Sept. 15 hearing, filing a revised stalking horse bid, court documents show.

Estes was among the first commercial for-hire carriers to sign up to pilot emerging technology developed by Remora.
