CN rail wait time?
For those that have received their car. How long did it take to load onto CN rail car? My car arrived Halifax June 30 and still no information on CN website when tracing.

usually it takes about 2 weeks to reach your dealer (rail to stock yard to truck transport to dealer) and the dealer will need another 2-3 days to process and prepare pdi.

I suspect it depends upon the destination. When I look at the travel times between Halifax and Toronto the schedule varies depending upon the load times. However that does not appear to be the case for travel between Halifax and Calgary.

My SA said this today: QUOTE The vehicle already landed Canada and it is under local railway transportation, that's why I said anytime. I will say hopefully within 10-14 days. UNQUOTE So not sure if that means it's on rail and it is not showing on CN. |

Finally there is something better about living in Halifax than out West
I just went to the Autoport and the dealer and I drove my M4 back downtown... took about an hour and a half This is probably the ONLY thing better about living in Halifax vs. Calgary (other than the ocean, maybe). I really hope your car ships quickly but the painful wait will be so worth it!!!

I actually like the east coast it is very different. Although I don't know if I would live out that way. By the way your AY M4 is sharp. I finally got to see AY in person this weekend and wow it is so different in real life. |

How are you tracing it on the CN website - can you share the link? My car just landed in Halifax today and I'm hoping to start tracking it as well.

With that being said a lot of people are saying CN tracing is crap. I have a friend that works at Audi and apparently they will receive cars without it even showing up on CN's site. I wouldn't really rely too much on CN if that's the case. |

My SA just told me ETA for my car to Calgary is July 27. Since it arrived Halifax June 30 that means it takes about 1 month from Halifax to Calgary.

Do any of you guys have a CN account that you'd be able to please use to track my VIN? Mine is on the Torrens landing in Halifax on Monday (July 21)
Thanks
