LOL...

I guess I'm showing my age here, but my parents bought us a Speak & Spell to keep us busy on car trips way back when. Maybe I'll have to see if I still have it when I start calling the Railroad line for info.

BTW, how often are you guys calling for info and how often is that info changing? I'm curious so I know when I finally get my Rail car #.

I hope my car gets shipped out tomorrow! Can't wait for my Tuesday update. [heard Eric is off Monday]

Thanks,
Chad

Once its on the move it changes every hour or so, but when it stops all bets are off.

Hey Baclarsen, while I realize we are on different cars, is it possible we are on the same train...

ETTX710418,
I've had hell trying to get through... don't want to accidentally end up with a live person so I am trying to find someone coming to the same general area( Texas)... Kyle Tx, just south of Austin...

Thanks

The Union Pacific phone number is telling me it will be in the City of Industry on Saturday, 11/7 at 1:00pm now - wonder how it already lost a day from the original estimate?!

That's better than the 11th-it was sayin 11/11 about 3 hours ago... Hopefully it will keep updating and getting better ETAs-let's just hope we don't stop like other trains for days on end in a town in the middle of nowhere!

sullivang · 11-02-2009, 12:08 AM

Hey, just called the UP number and got the same results. Also, there are two cars with the same number? The railcar has been loaded and is on its way to Mira Loma, CALIFORNIA

. Scheduled to be there on 11/11

Went out a little tonight. Did a lot of this

now feel a little like this

Going to bed,Later
