That typically means the railcar has been placed at the auto facility in the rail yard for unloading.

How long does that process typically take I wonder?

Car spotted for unloading will be unloaded within ~16 hours. Then the wait begins because we are at the mercy of the truck transport from that point on. If it is a busy auto facility then it could be a few days at the minimum. If your dealership has any pull with the transport company then have them give a little pressure.

Jrhogger, previously you looked into my rail car and got different locations than my calling CSX yielded. Current CSX says my car ETTX710227 arrived in Shelbyville, Kentucky ay 8:15 AM yesterday and it hasn't moved since. Is it possible for different rail car companies to have the same car number? Maybe I am tracking the wrong one?

No rail cars #'s are specific, however some Class one RR do not share information with others. I will check again to see if I can see anything different.

Going call the auto facility since I met them the other day figured I would see if they can tell me, My current EDD is 1/07 and it changed to that the day it arrived Omaha.

And wwwqa.cotus.ford.com is acting all screwy. Looks like they are changing the site up to add some features or it is a mobile version or something. It never quite loads completely and the links don't work (Windows Sticker, Videso, etc). Hopefully it gets worked out.. I am going through withdrawals already lol

You are probably using www.cotus.ford.com or www.cotusb.ford.com. I have a Convertible so the only site that works for us is wwwqa.cotus.ford.com which is all screwy right now. I confirmed with another Convertible user but try the QA site.

Only www.cotusb.ford.com works for me. The other two websites are giving me 404 errors.

Dealer just called. . Car is in. ... pick it up at 430 today! ! COTUS still says in transit with an EDD of 1/4

Dealership emailed today said car would be delivered Sat evening Sunday, since they are not open Sunday I cannot get it until Monday. Irritated by transport provider from auto facility.....

I just spoke to the dealer as well. Car arrived at the rail yard on 12/30 and has been waiting there for a truck. Apparently there are no deliveries over the weekend :shrug:, so they are expecting it on Monday. The receivables manager will know when it's put on a truck and I'll get a call with a heads up since the yard is only 30 miles from the dealer.
