Train autorack unloading Seattle area questions?

[chtucker]

The train with my Bronco made it to Kent today!!

How long did it take for your Bronco to get to your dealer? Mine said hopefully by the end of the week, which seems like a long time to get to Bellevue.

I think mine was 3 days? Got there mid day on Tuesday, I drove by Tuesday night, Wednesday 3 times, with the last drive by at 7pm. When I drove by Thursday at 630am it was there... I assume Kirkland/Bellevue will be the exact same timing. There were 8 or so cars that got delivered on the same truck, so maybe they have to wait for enough cars to make the truck worth the trip? I figure the larger dealers around us need a truck every day or every other day to sell the 2500+ cars a year they sell.

Thanks! Hopefully I can take it home on Wednesday! It might finally be happening.

My dealer doesn't know how to look up the rail car number. good to know there is a train there with your bronco. My dealer told me Monday that mine is scheduled to be at the dealer the 13th to the 19th. I'm over in Bremerton. Built date 2/19 shipped 2/22

For those tracking, my rail car TTGX 854098 just hit the Kent yard last night. I'm reserved at Bowen Scarff 3mi away so hopefully it doesn't take 4 days.

May the delivery gods shine upon us all!

Awesome! I called them and they said that they received 2 Broncos yesterday, hope one was yours and mine is next. Seems like it takes anywhere from 2 to 7 days to get the 4 miles from the rail yard to the dealer
