Today is the last day for yard operations for Sevier Yard.  With the hump installed in 1951, Sevier Yard was NS' oldest hump yard.  Most road trains have either been diverted from the yard or has been abolished.

Any idea where the traffic that was handled by 38Q and 37Q got diverted to?

I'm not sure.  The only freights left on that route are 15T/16T.  Perhaps they picked up some of that traffic.  The only other logical option that I can think of is some of the traffic is sent to Linwood and then up to Enola on 12R (13R on the reverse routing).
