I went all the way back to page 80 of this thread and re-ran everything. If I didn't respond to your request, but put a sad face next to your original post, you can be sure that I at least checked you numbers but was unable to find anything.

Sorry that I no longer can get all the numbers.

Is there a chance they assigned me the wrong rail car number in the system? From the trajectory it's been going in, I'm starting to think my bronco is not in this rail car. Friona, Texas > New Mexico > Barstow, California(last update as of today). The car is supposed to end up just 30 minutes outside of NYC.

VIN: 1FMDE5DH9MLB01506
Order#: 8507
Ship Date: 11/30
Rail Car#: TTGX983324

Has anyone else been able to get tracking info when calling NS norfolk? Mine just always says no tracking data available. Does that mean it just hasnt left the plant yet?

Again thank you for your help.

My rail car TTGX992223 arrived at the Mira Loma yard last night and was constructively placed.

My dealership is 5 minutes from the rail yard. Do you typically see these closer deliveries get transported sooner or are they queued up for loading by arrival?

Thanks!

Usually they are pretty good at getting the vehicles off the lot quickly regardless of dealer proximity. The auto ramps are intended to be transfer facilities, not storage lots. I think the automaker has 48 hrs (not counting days the ramp is closed) to retrieve the vehicle before they start paying fees.

The bigger factor is not how close the dealership, but how long it takes them to put together a full load. Whether it’s all the vehicles on the truck going to one dealership or multiple dealerships.

I just looked, they have not grounded the vehicles on that railcar yet. I would expect that to happen today.

It was released to the CSX on 11/30 but actually departed MAP on 12/1.

As of this morning it was in Louisville, KY. This is where it makes the turn to head back to Chicago. Expect 3 days back to Chicago, and another 5 to get to Denver.

Nice. Thanks for the information.
