Sorry, was building Challies and Stangs online with my girl.



I will call customer service tomorrow to see if they could tell me my railcar # and where my car is now.


I doubt I will get my car by my ETA but maybe monday? I'd rather have it for the weekend.

Jokerstars -- if it's on the same train as mine (and it probably is) it's in Ohio as of last night. It will likely go to MD or south of Richmond before being loaded onto a truck and taken to your dealer. Same for HokieCodeMonkey. We'll probably all have our cars by this weekend.

Benton. Ordered from Landers there, the same place I got the Bullitt. Saleman is off today but he is pretty good. Figure I will hear from him Thursday if it was in Memphis.

Kinda neat that a few of you guys are on the same train. So does this mean the whole end of July is BS?

If it arrives on Saturday I need to have insurance and financing ready by Friday. I'm going to call my salesman tomorrow evening and find out where it is so I know whether to have that stuff ready.


It's going to be my dealer's first 5.0 so I am not going to let them do burnouts or let kids play in it. =P

I'm pretty excited for you, hopefully you'll get it 1 day after your ETA

I checked first thing this morning and the train with my Gt was in Walbridge, OH as of 10 pm last night. Railcar #ETTX803496

Just checked it and now it says "no status". So who knows.

I also checked the CSX train schedule, it looks like it takes 6 days for it to get to Twin Oaks center (Just outside Philly), That would be Sunday. Then it gets on a truck to Jeff at the dealership.

I'm thinking realistically, mid to late next week picking up this car if there are no problems.

Six days to twin oaks? F that. How does it take 6 days to go a four hour drive.


We are all going to Twin Oaks? Ugh. I hear it can sit anywhere between 1-10 days there.

Thats what CSX online schedule said, but who knows. I may be wrong.

I think thats a major terminal for cars, just outside of Philly but if your dealer is near DC you may not be going there.

Status now says train departed Walbridge, Oh at 7:19am enroute Connelsville, PA. No ETA was given, but that leg is about 250 miles....the halfway point!

jokerstars, there is an auto drop off point in Jessup, MD...100 miles south of Twin Oaks

maybe mine is on that railcar as well, it was built 5/04

what dealership(s) did you, corvettedreamin and HokieCodeMonkey order from?

How are you tracking the railcar? I went to the CSX website but must be an idiot.

You can't track online with CSX, telephone only. Call 877-744-7279, press 5 when prompted, press 3 when prompted, speak your rail car number when prompted.
