Default Railhead Question?

My C7 left BG on 2/22 bound for MacMulkin in NH by rail.
It is scheduled to be at the Railhead in Selkirk, NY (south of Albany) on Tuesday (3/11).
How long does it usually take to be off-loaded at the railhead and trucked the 90 or so miles to the dealer?
I am hoping it makes it MacMulkin by the end of next week (3/14), so that I can pick it up on 3/21.

Hard to say exactly but it took 5 days to get my car to the dealer's lot after it arrived at the rail head in Spokane, WA

Ken - Thanks. I am hoping to do a little better than 5 days.
I am also hoping CSX's estimate of being at the railhead on 3/11 is accurate.

I had to deal with both CSX and Union Pacific - I've related the soap opera already and I sincerely hope you don't need to go through that!
