ok so camarotracking for the last week has said in transit from osh and i was giving a rail car number to track. I been calling the union Pacific for the last week but the only thing i could make out from the machine was that the estimated delivery date to the Cali auto rail yard was aug 27. now today CT gave me an update saying i have a new statues that was from aug 18th that my car is in transit from the rail-yard

so im a bit confused here has my car been on the train for the last week or did it just get put on the train or is it on the truck headed to my local dealer? also i tried to talk to my sales rep but he wasn't in and the other people their were hard to get answers out of...they were saying it can take 5 days for the car to come via truck from the rail yard to their dealership....i dont see how it can take 5 days to travel about 200 miles on a truck

Sounds like the car was unloaded from the train. As for the delay, it will sit there till they have enough cars to fill a truck headed your way.

I would not call it a delay... they guy at the dealership did not look anything up, he was just saying it usually takes 5 days. im thinking that is what they tell every one and they let the car arrive at their place and then they take their time prepping it... if i find CT says delivered i will go snooping around the back( which is sorta open to the public during business hours) and see if i can find my car and the get them on the ball to speed up what every they do to get the ca out of their.
