how do you figure this out? Curious how the whole train thing works, do the cars constantly get switched on diff trains? I am just North of NYC, My rig showed up in Bellevue OH on the 13th and departed there today, Assume it was switched trains. I think it will go CLE, Buffalo, Rochester, Albany and then down to a yard in NJ (which means it will pass within a mile of my house and my dealer) or get offloaded in Albany. Just wondering if it will have to switch trains again? or if it is on a train that will go straight thru?

No wonder it’s $1400+ for shipping. Your Bronco is getting one hell of a scenic train ride.

It could be me but that math doesn’t seem right. Estimate 17 for the trip, shipped 11/13 and arrival on 11/18….

have you ever been to Cleveland, Buffalo, Rochester & Albany? Unless it gets to see Niagra falls, not to much scenery!

Awesome. Looks like I’ll be going to Missouri soon. Do you by chance remember how long each leg took approx?

I don't but it was shipped on 10/30 and arrived on 11/12. The headache now is it takes days to go across town.

Um there’s a lot of fall foliage…maybe…a mountain or large hill

I made the trip up to Chapman today to pick up my Black Diamond. Hopefully everyone else gets their Bronco soon.

Whenever it stops for a while, it's usually switching trains (if it's at a big rail yard). Look up Hump Yards...

The tracking on my rail car is saying that it’s empty and released by the customer in Alliance, TX. Seems odd for them to transport it from TX to CA on a truck instead of rail.. anyone else in a similar situation?

thanks... so how do i figure out if it gets offloaded in Selkirk NY (just south of Albany an hour and a half away) or Newark NJ (1 hr away)

I was in the same situation was supposed to be in Alliance showed headed for California even showed Cali on official ford rail tracking but the Bronco did end up in Alliance not California probably just a tracking error wouldn’t be too concerned
