🛠 1/3/22 Build Week Group

I don’t know what’s going on up there. Yesterday it left blue island at 0700 and went to Gibson 1300, and this morning it says it’s been delivered to interchange at Blue Island at 0100 but no updates since.

Blue Island is a major hub in Chicago where railcars are moved to different lines.
I was lead to believe, whatever happens in Blue Island, stays in Blue Island.
I was there bouncing around for 3 full days.

Mine is a high package, selectable 4x4 OBX And mine moved out pretty quick. Built to shipped in <48 hours. Are all of you lux or mixed? Maybe 4A parts? Im not sure this is related unless these trims have something in common that is in short supply.

I've got the high package, maybe the rear locker is holding it up but who knows.

I was in love with the sill plates and they were gone when I finally ordered too. I just really wanted the bronco logo so when I found them I jumped on them.

I saw a video on YouTube where the pads weren’t scratching but just leaving some kind of gunk so I still feel like it was money well spent lol.

haha yeah, they were pretty, that’s why I wanted them too! May still get them eventually, just want to see how the 15$ ppf works for now!

Sounds like pure chaos. Hopefully I can make it out of that area soon. Looks like you made it to Texas in 2 days once it left that madness. Does the CSX phone line still give you the updates or are you tracking BNSF somehow?

Just looking at all this North Carolina snow and no bronco to play in it….

I am using CSX and have saved their number with extended keys to have a simple update process.

1-800-235-2352,,1,81814192#,707020#,##

The above line is based upon my railcar information of TTGX 707020

All I have to do is dial that saved # on speaker and mute and it will give me the update.

Ugh, lucky!! I wish Charlotte got that much!! Is that your horse?

It’s something like that, like I stated.

I only have BCE modules, nothing under PCM.

Doh, I must have missed it. I trust your insights

Yea I’m outta Charlotte. This is a place I hunt in Creston, and I take care of the horses for the home owners who live about 5 hours away.

Here near Fayetteville all we got was freezing rain. I was worried we might lose power, it flickered a few times but held!

Yep the freezing stuff is what always knocks the power out

My update this morning was arrival in Gibson, In. at 7:16am. I hope I don’t go back to Chicago.

Has yours said “delivered to Interchange - Blue Island, IL” yet? I think this is the last step before it actually leaves the area. If not you may be going back like I did lol. I believe it is transferring to a BSNF Train to pull it south.

Shhh….. don’t tell my husband that was an option.
