I need to go look for it! To bad it's not mine, it'd be home.

I’ll go look for it. I’m a little surprised it’s setting here. Most of the side tracks were removed here a few years back. Not many cars set idle here. Do you have a car number by chance?

On another thread there's a Lightning owner in So Cal who's railcar arrived Tuesday evening and it arrived at the dealership this AM....So thinking more like 3-4 days!

You heard anything yet from your dealer?

This is the rail car# TTGX981053. It’s been interesting to look at satellite maps and see how large the rail yard is. Emporia looks long.

Find the correct camera and you might see it go by.

The rail yard is smaller now than it used to be. We counted about 24 vehicle transport cars parked in the yard.
Here’s a long distance photo of them

Oh wow. That’s cool, Thank you. Well at least the rail car is real.

My UP railcar arrived in Mira Loma last night. As of this morning it is “Constructively Placed”.
