UPS says this.. 
 
"A train derailment has delayed delivery. We're adjusting plans to deliver your package as quickly as possible. / Delivery will be rescheduled." 
 
Anyone see a train flipped over anyone? Search around, there may be a 1080 on the ground.

    That's horrible but I can't help but laugh! You'll get your card soon and enjoy it.

    I don't know where this train is and it is pretty laughable at this point. 
     
    Just spoke with UPS. Was told it could be a week or a few weeks as they have no control over what is happening and that I should just order a new item from the shipper. (yeah, I'll get right on that.  )

    When trains derail, most times they just bury the train. Insurance on trains is too costly, so the just buy out whatever was on it and replace it.
    Hope that makes you feel better.

    I have seen this on tracking numbers from time to time. Most times the package gets going again in a few days. It was probably just off the rails and not a wreck or anything.

    That was horrible. Power connectors, backplates, chips torn off PCBs... lying everywhere... cardboards shred to pieces... Not even the 1070s were spared.
