woohoo! thanks for sharing this info, I really appreciate it! Does "CU" imply that unload still needs to be completed, or that it has already been completely unloaded?Looks like your railcar arrived.
My dealer has 3 other cars waiting at the Chicago heights ramp, and they usually get a truck shipment once they have 4 cars ready for pickup. I could have a huge stroke of luck and get it as a Christmas present if it unloads soon!
Not sure on that ( my work is with the shipping containers instead of car transports ) but it still shows the car as a load so I'd guess its not off yet ( or at least its not updated yet )

I'm on day 8 at the Yard Center in Chicago.. today's status is "loaded NULL"
I don't know if that's better or worse than BAD ORDER 
Been on the track since 11/30, 4 days in St. Louis then 4 days in Avon Indiana not waiting on a train going the right direction.I'm on day 8 at the Yard Center in Chicago.. today's status is "loaded NULL"

6:11am.. she finally made it to the destination ramp and is waiting to unload. Over a week behind schedule, but I'll take it. Now only a few more weeks to catch a transport the last 180 miles and I'll be golden!

Any luck? It's only been 5 days since mine unloaded.. and with the holidays I'm expecting it to be a few weeks. My dealer is low volume, so they don't get up to more that a couple on that lot at a given time. There was one waiting before mine so I hope that helps speed things up

Does it really take that long between unloading and dealership delivery? Damn. Mine's finally reached Chicago Heights (final rail destination) and I was hoping to get in this week!Any luck?

Some people have been waiting since before Thanksgiving for their truck from that ramp. It looks like wait time from that ramp to my dealership had been between 3 and 17 days over the last few months. I'm assuming up to three weeks for me, but I've got my fingers crossed for sooner! Having the rail car in BAD ORDER for a week shot my chance of getting the truck this year.
Maybe your situation will be different depending on how far your dealer is from that ramp and how many cars they have queued up?
