Do you mind if I get it off for a test drive?

According to UP Trace, my railcar was emptied and released from hold at 4am this morning.

That’s awesome! Mine still says something “held to unload” or something like that. Not sure.

My salesman (Rauly) said they are expecting 3 of them (including mine) on Wed. Maybe yours is one.

Yay!

Do let us know when your dealer receives it!

There was someone who got theirs at Ken Grody last week - very first Lightning.

I just realized our vehicles are on the same rail car.

Is it going to Ken Grody Carlsbad?

@Avocadodude is your truck still in KS? I’m following my truck and late last night it started moving west again. Has been moving slightly in between IL and IN this weekend. But now, it’s passing Iowa and nearing KS. Curious if they are awaiting more California bound rail cars in KS .

Also, I found that the automated UP trace isn’t slightly delayed as well. My truck was well outside the Hammond IN Interchange last night but when I called UP, the trace still reported it to have “arrived at Interchange” like it had done all day. In fact, it’s still reporting only as “arrived” but I can see it moving west near Argyle, IA right now.

Best bet would be the opposite–too much business of every kind. They're probably awaiting locomotives, train capacity, or train crews to move them. The weather is not helping.
