Unofficial (stuck) "InTransit" thread

Have you seen the Jeep (Grand Cherokee) commercials? Offering 1.79% on their vehicles.

Ford???

Those are Stellantis products they need to do whatever for people to buy them.

Crossing fingers, but probably looking at any glimmer of hope…. Just saw a Northbound train pull out of Barstow. The first 12-14 cars were Car Hoppers, which means those would be the LAST cars to unload, and would be indicative of a final destination train and railyard in Richmond… God I’m praying, but not holding breath.

edit #2
2nd northbound train rolling through, predominantly Car Hoppers… like 100 + cars

Well
No movement on mine yet… I’m assuming I could be wrong in NB/SB train movement and perhaps the SoCal people will be pleasantly surprised. Wondering if nothing is moving to Richmond for a specific reason….

I just called CSX and my rail car got moving again, departed flagstaff AZ 12/01 10:26am our time, maybe it’s on its way to Barstow to meet with you guys before heading up to Richmond

The reason why it’s not moving ti Richmond is because they want me to keep riding in the short yellow bus still.

I bet you and I will be on the same truck headed east

I hope so lol. Ready to drive this thing

Is that the train holding yard for handoff from train to truck? Mine sat in Atlanta train yard for a week before being picked up by truck. I think they wait for a full load going to the delivery area versus delivering one vehicle

It is a train yard. I know the process and know they have 10 vehicles there for my dealership. It a shortage of truck drivers that causes the delays. Also marking it hot doesn't do anything at this yard, had I landed in mesquite it would have already been here.

I'm definitely following the exact same footsteps as @TXLazer and probably the rest of the north Texas crew here. Train has gone - Ohio - Chicago - Gibson, Indiana as of yesterday. Did y'all get any train update between Indiana and Fort Worth (or wherever the rail yard is there)?

I did. My Carrier was BNSF and I was able to track through the CSX automated number. Gibson to Alliance (Ft Worth) was about 3 Day. It's been sitting there since the 27th.

Watching the Tehachapi Loop live cam. Will be cool to see it pass through such a historic section of track.

My train made it into the Gateway Interchange in St. Louis from Central Yard in Chicago on Union Pacific around 9pm last night. I had a couple different statuses "interchange delivery, interchange receipt, received in interchange"....then on to "picked up" this morning. Around 2:30 this afternoon, it departed St. Louis on UP. Not sure which route it's taking. BNSF seemed to have a more efficient route from St. Louis to OKC.
