Finally Built

[BB0]

Mine actually has been riding NS pretty much the entire time and the "shipment interchange delivered" message cited Markham IL. Who the hell knows....LOL

It has? I’ve been able to get status updates from all three major lines, but I’m almost positive that it’s UP it’s currently on. Have you tried calling the UP number just to see if they have more info? They’ve been able to give me ETAs where the other two haven’t.

Interesting, but haven't tried UP yet... certainly possible it got switched to them overnight. You spoke with a person when you called them, correct?

EDIT: Actually my truck has been on UP but then switched to NS back on 2/20 and has been on there ever since to the best of my knowledge.

Nah I saw that we shouldn't talk to any operators so I just call all three like 5 times a day since I'm impatient haha

Gotcha, well I hope it gets home soon!

My truck has been in the Illinois area for a number of days now, culminating with the latest NS update overnight - "shipment interchange delivered," which sounds to me like it's been moved onto another transportation mode (another rail company or maybe even a trailer), so hopefully that's continuing in the right direction.

Same here. Mine has been moving all around Illinois the last few days according to the call in line, but it is now just moving all around different parts of the Chicago area. Not sure what is going on.

Yeah, once mine made it to the Midwest it has made stops (in order) in Missouri, Illinois, Indiana and now Illinois again. My truck is officially "ridin' the rails" like during the Depression.

Selkirk NY is not far from my home. Perhaps they should just arrange with me to drive it the rest of the way.

ETA: My Maverick is slowly making its way East, last in Gibson Indiana Interchange.

My Mav has made it to Sandusky Ohio as of this morning. It did seem to back track between my Sunday post (Indiana) and yesterday (it was back in Illinois). Two steps forward, one step back?

I know, I'm going to have way too much free time once my truck arrives.

Next fixation: Driving the truck!

Love your post and so happy for you that it finally got here. Ours is hanging around Illinois rail yards. Just keeping our fingers crossed that it finds its way home soon. Congratulations. Enjoy the ride! Diane
