Mine is there too. It’s a pretty frustrating situation. I’m getting to go close on a property I bought in Pensacola and will probably miss the delivery.

Well it’s snowing in KC now while my GT500 sits in a railcar since Monday. So here I sit on my patio in 70deg drinking coffee. While visions of GT500’s in track mode rev in my head.
The railcar arrived at the Voltz yard in Missouri at the beginning of last week. The railcar was emptied and the vehicles were parked.
The railcar left for its next destination.
IIRC, Nick mentioned having other vehicles sitting there as well. Looking at other release times from other railyards across the country (with respect to GT500's) this yard is by far the slowest.

hopefully Nick will receive the cars tomorrow. However it’s been snowing there and more snow starting around noon.
This is ridiculous. I wish I had an explanation for you guys (@Tob and @gfcobra04). I'm sorry that I don't.
The cars have physically been unloaded off of the railcar, but have not been released from the rail company to the transport company at the yard. I'm not sure why they haven't, and neither is my Ford rep or my friend that dispatches for the transport company.
My Ford rep has reached out to the rail company several times, and they aren't providing very good answers. I will dig in to it more today. I'm sorry for the hassle.

They aren't damaged. Ford/rail company have no problem releasing damaged vehicles haha
Probably doing a QC inspection over a certain run. Both these cars were within a few from each other.
None of the cars on the list that are listed as Arrived have been released and they have been sitting there for over a week. Something strange is going on.
I read through the entire rail guide from Ford, rather lengthy. In it they explain what damage is acceptable to be repaired that never gets reported to the customer. That is bothersome and I wouldn't have believed it until I saw it in writing.
So you've seen them do QC inspections before? A gentleman in Mesquite, TX is reporting the exact same thing is going on with his car, sitting in the railyard and now reported to be on hold from Ford.
I don't recall the dollar amount, but believe if it is over $500 it has to be reported.
I would venture to guess his VIN is in the same run as yours and the other I have incoming.
