Passed Thru Minneapolis last night, Stopped in Staples, Minnesota, I'm told most likely a fuel stop/Crew Change. Possible to be in Laurel, Montana late tonight. We will see for sure later today.

Entered Eastern Montana about 3 hrs ago in Glendive. Train is moving now. My guess is the truck should arrive sometime tomorrow.

If anyone has a truck shipping through Union Pacific and knows the railcar number I can track that for them. All I need is the railcar number.

Is the Dealer the only way we can find out how it is shipped? If mine comes Rail it will probably be BN and or UP

Once I received my railcar number, I was able to find out from a buddy when it shipped, he works for BNSF and has been tracking it for me since Monday

Stuck in Laurel Montana right now. Not sure how long. Could be moving rail cars around for different locations. that could take awhile. Hoping this thing gets here tomorrow and gets to the dealer soon after. My Dealer is tagging it hot to get delivered to the dealer immediately.

Dealer is getting the windows tinted to match the rear and clear bra on Hood, Fenders and rocker panels. Definitely a good move there.

As of this morning, still hasn't moved from Laurel, MT. Shifting cars around for different locations I am guessing. I sure hope to have my truck by next week. It still 2 days out from what I have been told. Has to travel to NW Montana before dropping down into Washington after a fuel stop in Whitefish.

Got my window sticker, says convoy, but as others have mentioned that doesnt mean it will ship by truck.

Still stuck in Laurel. Sounding like we may get some movement now, Montana Rail Link finally has some crews available. Hoping to hear tonight that it is in the move. If that happens, should be here no later than Tuesday would be my guess

Does anyone have any insight into the CSX system? I'm striking out with the directions that were posted on an alternate thread, keeps wanting to connect me to a real person.

Thanks in advance.

I tried the phone system instructions and it worked for me. I just don't have a rail car number yet. Maybe the exact numbers are different and you have to follow the instructions? Does ETIS show your truck with a build date?

Huh. Yea I've got everything, actually got a screenshot of my vehicle visibility report...shows the entire process. The rail car number is on there, she's on a train, and has been for a few days. I'm give it another shot tonight.

EDIT: got it. All loaded up and ready to leave Louisville. It's not at KTP, looks like a yard.

Once it ships from KTP, the rail car number will be on the vehicle visibility report from your dealer. I got it to work tonight...she's between Louisville and St. Louis.
