The official, my dealer is a tool and won't tell me my rail car number.

@Kos Sorry to bother again but I just called UP to get an update. It says "Empty, Estimated Departure 12/9 3:30pm" does that mean its scheduled for pickup by convoy ?

TTGX702558.

Yup, it was unloaded yesterday (12/8) at 6:00 am. Ran your VIN, it's still at the ramp waiting for the road carrier to come pick it up.

My dealer is no help.

Rail Car #: TTGX 992370

Rail car is currently in Louisville, KY (dont make me go into it again, yes it does not make any sense for something going from Michigan to CA to go to KY, that's just what has happened on every load going to the UP).

Figure 3 more days to get to Chicago, 9 days from Chicago to LA. Just to be safe let's say it should be at the ramp in LA (Mira Loma) in 2 weeks, another couple of days after that to get to the dealer.

Wow. The end of the road is near.

Thank you so much for your help!

@Kos how long can they sit at the yard? I called my dealer and they said they have no pull on getting it to them any faster.

It just depends on how long it takes them to line up a carrier. There’s a National trucker shortage and it’s particularly bad in LA. I was just out there last month working on trucker productivity initiatives.

All I can tell you is Ford will eventually incur storage fees at the ramp so they should be motivated to get it ASAP.

1-3 days seems to be the range. Mine arrived at the railyard on Tuesday around noon. It's been sitting there since.

Saw someone else on this forum who had their Bronco arrive at the railyard on Sunday night and it was delivered to the dealer yesterday.

I can wish and pray.

Question if you know, I am in Orange County California. My rail car just arrived in Yermo CA. which is right next to Barstow. I know there is a rail yard in Mira Loma CA. about half way between me and Yermo. Will my car continue on Union Pacific to Mira Loma or does it get picked up in Yermo by a truck?

There are no auto facilities at Yermo. It will unload at Mira Loma.

You’re in FL so I won’t be able to help. I can only see west coast loads.

Do cars usually sit there for a day or two or do they get switched to another train car? The reason I ask is UP says delivery scheduled for 12/12 which is 2 days from now. I would think if it was just moving on to Mira Loma it would be there tonight or tomorrow.
