jared6788 Posted April 7, 2013 Share Posted April 7, 2013 If you call CSX, they will tell you the final destination. More than likely it somewhere other than the major terminal. Just means another 24 hours to reshuffle before heading for final destination. At least that was my experience in Houston My train is Union Pacific. Those are different companies or no? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fusionTX Posted April 7, 2013 Share Posted April 7, 2013 My train is Union Pacific. Those are different companies or no? Thanks I think mine is too. I call the 800 number (800-235-2352) for tracking and when I don't understand the city sometimes I speak to CS. They don't have much information, but they can give you the current city and final destination. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neod192 Posted April 7, 2013 Share Posted April 7, 2013 (edited) My train is Union Pacific. Those are different companies or no? Thanks You can track the UP train through CSX. Mine starts on CSX (in the US), went to UP (Union Pacific) then NS (Norfolk Southern). The only way I was able to track it was through the CSX #. Mine also has a SP railcar instead of ETTX.

Malibu3105 Posted April 7, 2013 Share Posted April 7, 2013 APM, I updated with the date for delivered, but used "Got one from stock" in the VIN field to stay consistant with what TaylorJD was doing. If you would like it done any other way, let me know how you want it and I will be glad to change it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malibu3105 Posted April 7, 2013 Share Posted April 7, 2013 Anyone, I was trying to find the assembly plant in Mexico, but having trouble with the address. I know someone posted pictures, but I wanted to take a look with Google Earth. Anyone know the coordinates or address that I can plug in to Google Earth ?

murphy62 Posted April 7, 2013 Share Posted April 7, 2013 My car status is "Arrived at Global IV Illinois" which is a major terminal near Chicago. Anybody have experience with knowing Chicago cars final destinations? Just curious if it will move again or if it's done. That appears to be one of the places that cars transition from the Union Pacific system to the CSX system. My car arrived there at 6:18 AM this morning (April 7). It's all downhill to Philadelphia from there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fusionTX Posted April 7, 2013 Share Posted April 7, 2013 I think my car arrived at its final rail destination early this morning. CSX says final destination is Westfield, TX. Car arrived in Spring, TX, but I am pretty sure they are one and the same. Took 24 hours from arrival to Houston to go the 20 miles to Spring. Now the wait begins for the unloading and transport to the dealership. ETA is Friday. Hope it arrives early. I have a buyer for my old car, but he wants to get the deal done by Friday at the latest. Looks like everything is coming togeteher. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was in White City, KS (early Saturday morning I think?

milleron Posted April 7, 2013 Share Posted April 7, 2013 So I may be jumping ship from the Red and going with a White Platinum. My dealer has two that will be here in the next couple weeks (before my Red will even be scheduled and built). Frankly just tired of waiting since we ordered back on Jan 1 and still only have a VIN. We originally were going to get the 2.0T titanium back in Nov until they announced the HyTi. Kinda wish they wouldn't have teased us so long ago with this car. Although I know we're going to love it, we just out grew the Civic long ago and can't wait another month and a half or more for the Red.Will know more on Monday. Hopefully I'll be changing my VIN on the spreadsheet and taking delivery soon! It is hard to wait, especially considering the olden days when you could place a specific order and have it in two weeks. However, the three months you've waited so far is not bad for the car you're buying. For example, I put down a deposit on a Hybrid SE on June 12th, 2012. By early December, I had NOTHING, not a VIN, not a build date, and with the rumors about shabby builts at Hermosillo, I canceled that order after SIX months. I reordered a HyTi in late December, and my invoice date (and window-sticker date) was April 2. Don't change your order. At this point, I think it's more likely to delay delivery than hasten it. <old Jedi mind trick - on> "You CAN wait another 6 weeks. Six weeks is nothing in the grand scheme of things." <old Jedi mind trick - off> 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RUBY ROYAL Posted April 7, 2013 Share Posted April 7, 2013 Apparently we're not the only ones who can't get our HyTi Fusions. I spent a couple of hours at the New York International Auto Show at the Javitt's Center in Manhattan on Saturday and they had just about every Ford, car, truck and van imaginable BUT almost conspicuously missing was a HyTi Fusion... every other Titanium this and that but not a HyTi in the house... notta... just thought that was kind of funny... no Ford people there to bitch to... the executives get out of town right after the opening days...

Mystiq Posted April 7, 2013 Share Posted April 7, 2013 My dealer realized that I know more about the car than they do ... They did a quick walkthrough of the main features, but nothing really Hybrid specific. They didn't even know the pump in the trunk could fill the tire with air or that flat fixing stuff. They were looking for a separate fix-o-flat canister I did talk with the Hybrid specialist at the dealership and I was able to ask him some questions. He hasn't worked on a 2013 Hybrid yet (or so he said) and he was saying their hybrids are very reliable and don't come in for repairs. Pump in the trunk what now?

neod192 Posted April 7, 2013 Share Posted April 7, 2013 (edited) Pump in the trunk what now? I called it pump, but I meant the mobility kit The kit consists of an air compressor to reinflate the tire and a sealing compound in a canister that will effectively seal most punctures caused by nails or similar objects.

I will want to know in a couple of weeks I got mine from cyberDman. My car was built on a Monday. I posted the request to cyberdman late on Tuesday evening. He replied first thing Wednesday morning and it included the railcar number. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malibu3105 Posted April 8, 2013 Share Posted April 8, 2013 Awesome, thank you. I won't expect the people at my dealer to be forthcoming with any information. So will ask Cyberman when the time comes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jcg1005 Posted April 8, 2013 Share Posted April 8, 2013 Malibu3105 - Received my build date from cyberdman this morning. Can you put it on the spreadsheet? Scheduled to Day - 2013-04-18 Thanks! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
