Today I got the code UNLD. Which I assume means unloaded?I'm a 3.21.22 build week person but like to snoop around the forums ... This means that the rail car is in a position to be unloaded. Once you are unloaded you'll get a RMPY status which means Ramp Yes. Then it just sits and waits for a hauler to grab it and take it to your dealer. Once it hits this status, you can stop tracking via CSX or Norfolk Southern. If you call after its unloaded, you'll get status of the rail car going back out for use. Just keep looking at palsapp, Pizza Tracker, ordertrack.app for updates.
I'm in the waiting for pickup phase. My Delivery ETA timeframe starts tomorrow so I'm not sweating it "that bad"..... Although an early surprise call from the dealership would be nice
Little snip it of my Rail Car history.

You would be correct.Today I got the code UNLD. Which I assume means unloaded?
What's next, RMPY?You would be correct.
Should be next. After unload, it's placed in a bay/ramp area with an assigned number. The haulers use this to know which car's to load for transport to dealer.What's next, RMPY?
Thanks for answering my questions!Should be next. After unload, it's placed in a bay/ramp area with an assigned number. The haulers use this to know which car's to load for transport to dealer.
Almost assuredly so. Look at the automotive facilities for BNSF (I am guessing that's who will take it from Blue Island). https://www.bnsf.com/ship-with-bnsf/support-services/facility-listings.pageThat was unfortunately my fear that leaving Blue Island it would take 5-6 days to get to Oklahoma. I am assuming it goes to OKC if my delivery is in Norman.
I have heard of dealers going straight to the rail yard instead of waiting for a convoy to delivery to the dealership. I wonder if your dealer might be able to do the same thing. It's going above and beyond for a customer which not many dealers would do that these days, but you could try asking?Would be nice if they would just toss me the keys and I'll run it over to the dealer myself at this point. Wishful thinking I know, but it's tough knowing it's very close, and from their website and what I've been told there's at least 3 Broncos including mine plus at least one ranger just waiting for my dealer, but still no news.
I can ask but I suspect it will go nowhere since they estimated 2-3 weeks even though from the stock orders on the website for Rangers or Broncos some had been delivered in only a day after gate release based on the pizza tracker.I have heard of dealers going straight to the rail yard instead of waiting for a convoy to delivery to the dealership.

if mine got to the rail yard to be convoy’d the rest of the way, i cant track that on palsapp right? it would have to be convoy from the factory with that truck information?I'm a 3.21.22 build week person but like to snoop around the forums ...
