Is this location the junction point for the trucks shipping west? My truck has been here for almost a week now and I’m starting to gain hatred for this city ?

I can't answer your question but I can relate, my train car's last known location is Cayce SC, final leg is Dixiana. a few miles South of Cayce.  According to CSX, my truck's train car arrived in Cayce 4/5 at 10:18am and they provide no ETA for final destination ramp at Dixiana.  Dealer has basically same info, stuck in Cayce.  Sales manager said retail Super Duty order in front of mine sat at Cayce for two weeks before moving to Dixiana so mine appears to be following same fate.  Email from Ford after being built stated an estimated delivery date of 4/3-4/9, so much for that but I'm not too pissed because there isn't a damn thing I can do about it so not going to get my blood pressure up for something I can't control.  I have no choice but to wait and keep smiling.  Good luck finding your truck and try to stay calm.

It's been moving these last couple of days, I have to say this wait has been much easier than the production wait.

My truck finally is on the move from Cayce SC to Dixiana which is offload ramp.  According to the automated CSX number called, my train car will be at Dixiana by 1am 4/13, that's about 2 hours from now.  Not long after I called CSX and got the latest update, Ford sent an email changing my delivery estimate to my dealer from 4/3-4/9 to 4/15-4/21.  Well, it won't be long now...
