Keep in mind
DO NOT SPEAK WITH A LIVE PERSON WITH ANY RAIL CAR COMPANY. Simply hang up if it sends you to customer service..

Here they are again.

If you get a rail car number you can check here..
Start with CSX, thats who gets it first..
DO NOT TALK TO A HUMAN BEING!!!!!
ONLY USE THE AUTOMATED SYSTEM!!!!

I can not stress that enough, if you talk to a human looking for your car, GM will suspend rail car updates, and EVERYONE will loose the ability to track over the rails..
I pity the fool that ruins it for everyone else, and they find out who it was.

Found your car . Bad news.. apparently when we where back in Salem they unhooked your car, and left it there..
You are just now in Mt. Vernon Illinois. which is just south of Salem Illinois. as of this morning..
Sorry dude.. It should be in Texas by today.. I hope.. should take the same route.. except instead of going south @ Omaha Texas it will keep going West.
