That statement was echoed in the article. The article did not say how many of the 35 were in North America. It did say that the majority of the N.A. ones were in central part of N.A. they did talk about mainly feeder yards were they had multiple locations in 1 area. Chicago last week was an example of this.



There was also another article in the last few days that mentioned Omnisource and Schnitzer (in addition to Sims and DJJ) as closing some yards.
