Train autorack unloading Seattle area questions?

[chtucker]

A very kind rail car "mate" (same production date, same ship date) has tracked the train to Wenatchee. Train left Michigan on 9/22 and arrived in Wenatchee. Its been sitting there for most of the day...

Getting conflicting info on where they unload the rail cars, All of my research *aka googling* shows that they should be unloaded in Renton at the

Orillia Vehicle Facility
3801 Oakesdale Ave SW
Renton, WA 98055

Is that accurate? The ETA delivery date is 10/18 to 10/24... I am hoping that I don't have to wait two agonizing weeks for the Bronco to be trucked from Renton to Kirkland!!

Happy it is getting close! Thankful that I will be an early delivery for this area.

They can't load/unload anywhere. The BNSF auto facilities are in Spokane and Orillia. Wait for me! I should catch up tomorrow. Currently in western Montana.

That is what I understood... I am almost not nuts enough to wanna see it unloaded, but after watching a few videos, I am do want to see an autoracking operation in person.

That would be fun. It goes a little something like this.

My Bronco is setting on the same train. My Sales person has told me my Bronco will be off loaded at Vancouver and loaded on a Truck to Ashland Oregon. I started tracking my Bronco since I received the Rail Car number September 28 when it was in Barstow ILL.
My guess is they are a little backed up since the Amtrac derailment killing 3 people near Joplin Mt. The rail line was closed for 2 or 3 days for a investigation on the cause. Any concrete info is always appreciated.

I just noticed this thread now

Yeah the train is still sitting here.

Though it's a little after 9 pm and I just heard the train horns going off, so it's either heading out, or that's the train it was waiting for, Amtrak, since they have a stop in Wenatchee.

I'm pretty sure the 4Dr Big Bend my local dealer is waiting for is also on it.

Hoping to hear that it has arrived to the when I wake up... IS IT POSSIBLE THAT I COULD HAVE MY BRONCO THIS WEEKEND?????? That would be mind blowing..

I won't truely know until about 5:30 a.m, when I head to the gym. I go by the tracks where it's sitting, on my way there.

I just called and the train car has departed cashmere so I don’t think my dealer knew what he was talking about when he said they got unloaded in Wenatchee which seemed odd to me…
Edit: the train car was there all day so I guess they could have unloaded something but I’m going to keep tracking it

Watching this and adding 8 days for mine that left around the 30th for Bellevue. I hope you get yours soon!

I just looked at the legend on the BNSF map the only car facilities in wa are Spokane, Orilla(Tukwila), and Tacoma. I shouldn’t have listened to my dealer sorry for the earlier misinformation
