Time From Arriving At The Final Rail Yard to the Dealer

[Rex21c]

Auto racks are what are referred to as “pool” cars. It would be too inefficient to load/unload a rail car every time it went through interchange. To get around this, each rail carrier provides a certain # of rail cars based on their portion of the market place. As a result of this practice the rail car is just passed from carrier to carrier.

I promise you they did not unload your rail car and then load the Bronco onto another rail car.

Dropped off at customer location refers to when it was spotted at the auto ramp in Richmond. Released means that it was unloaded and available for pickup.

yea but I'm in portland oregon, not richmond california. and my dealer informed me that my bronco should be delivered to the dealer tomorrow, and my rail tracking info never switched from CSX since 3 weeks ago from richmond CA. So if what you are saying is true it was unloaded at Richmond as i suspected as when the rail car was "released" it was still reporting Richmond CA, again 3 weeks ago.

I promise you

Hell yeah, just got the call, it’s ready! It sat in the final railyard 4 days after being “released by customer”.

Mine arrived at Dixiana rail yard the 18th. Still waiting for a truck to pick it up for the dealer.

Has anyone found a way to track it from the rail yard? Mine arrived in Dixiana SC on the 18th. I’m in Charleston about 2.5 hours away and still no updates.

Mine has been at the rail yard since the 12th of June.

no way…. My dealer just posted a delivery of trucks that come from the same rail yard. Wonder how backed up the queue is over there. You’re bronco will be in my prayers.

Yep, I'm in MInnesota, the rail yard is about 1 hour from my dealer.

After two weeks they should at least let you arrange transportation. Someone is buying my Ford Ranger on Wednesday so I’ll be in trouble if it’s not here by the 7/1 estimate.
