The BBC Box arrived New Jersey Dec. 9

The BBC Box has arrived in Jersey City, NJ.

NYKU8210506 arrived Jersey City, NJ on December 09, 2008

I don't know if this is where it will be removed from the flat car, but I presume so.

I was wrong about when the container would arrive in New Jersey, and at what destination.

My guess was it wouldn't arrive until Dec. 12th or later. The actual transit was much faster - 5 days. Pretty good considering all the stops.

This is from the NYK tracking site, but the site has been modified and all the info is way down at the bottom (I had to look 3 times to find it).

The Box changed trains in Wellington, Kansas, which is only 20 miles from where I live. But it passed through close to midnight, so I wouldn't have seen it, even if I had been in the area.


According to the BBC site as of Dec. 9, The Box is still in California. Trust me, it's not.
