After waiting almost 4 months my car is scheduled to be built this week.
I'd like to be able to track it while it's on the train so I can know when to start tracking it on the truck. (we plan on getting video of the truck arriving and the car coming off)
Anyone know for sure which railyard services Dothan, AL. I'm down in the far southeast corner of Alabama. If anyone knows where my car's going and any contact info or tracking info I'd greatly appreciate it.

Jason

Regional chat forum. Or call your dealership, they told me where mine was.

Jason,

I can't tell you where the yard is but I can tell you they issued an ETA. It says you should arrive week of 03/12/05. By the way, you're bucked!!

WOOHOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thanks, Paul!!
Does that mean it'll be built tomorrow? today?
Notice the robot lady changed my message today. (see sig) From looking at maucoin65's sig, I think it actually means something when she stops saying 'locked in.'

Oh, almost forgot...
Still only a one 'nanner for now.

EDIT: Hey wait a minute. ETA 3/12? That's a Saturday. I'll have to come into work on a Saturday to check my car in. Heck what am I saying? I'm willing to come in on a Sunday or even come in at 2:00 in the morning. I don't care. I want my car!

If I did that, it would arrive before I got an answer.
As for my dealer, as you can see by Karpro's post, my dealer doesn't know. He's 1200 miles away so he doesn't know this region too well. Go figure.

Thanks, wsmatau. It's nice to know some people want to be helpful.
I'm sure Dothan cars will go through Atlanta also since P'Cola does.

Thanks, TVstang. I heard the same thing today from a guy who used to drive a hauler. None of the local dealers know. I have one more guy I can call that might know.

The truck part I have covered. Allied Automotive.
I just found out I should be able to get the railcar # from the dealer once it gets shipped. That and the name of the rail company shipping it are all I really need. I just want to track the car.
