Well I guess so. I was told today that my car left Louisville KY yesterday morning and that it is anywhere between there and Lapaz, Bolivia. My rail car # is ETTX803422. I didn't know trains from Ky went to Bolivia....perhaps it's a " SEA TRAIN ".:lol: Any way I called the Allied # and told them that I was getting the car as a gift from the Make A Wish foundation and that both my legs were schedule'd to be amputated this weekend so I needed to know when the car would arrive so that I may reschedule my amputation if need be. He said he would see what he could do. Personally, I don't think he believed me. :jester: So any way, there it is. I did however call Allied and they were of no help. They wouldn't even take any info. So if anyone has a " IN " with these people your help would surely be appreciated.

Keep checking the railcar till it shows offload, then, get your dealer to Hot Ticket it. Union Pacific won't let you on there property, but I reckon there is a transport office on the premises, go talk to them real friendly about delivery, it worked for me.:thumbs:
 
#41 ·
Fartblossom steers an Hound shifts gears an TwoTeeth does tha pedal work. Yall oughta here them barkin commands ta each other. It sounds like they dun treed a raccoon or bayin at tha moon. They all be wearin Skycaps an whatnot ta go incogneato. Sumthin about no dogs are supposeta drive or sumthin. Skip...Go girls.....:lol: :lol:
 
#43 ·
I would iffen Fartblossom would not be like her name an all. It be kinda hard ta charge fer drivin when yall gotta have tha winders down for ten hours because of yall know what... Skip...An thats after delivery....Stinken dogs....:lol: :)

Mine was offloaded, because the rail car showed empty, they weren't aware of the Hot Ticket until he went into their computer by VIN Number, that is when he saw was Hot Ticketed, if I hadn't brought it to there attention I wouldn't have got it before the weekend. I did it in person, was standing right there in the office, he says "Oh yes, it does have a Hot Ticket on it" We will get it out to your dealer tomorrow"
