They were driven off the assembly line to the holding lot outside the plant then driven to the loading docks where they went on a railcar or a car carrier truck if the dealer was within driving distance. Then they were unloaded at the destination rail yard and parked in the rail yard only to be driven again onto a car carrier to the dealer then again when they arrived at the dealer to their lot. I worked at the railyard auto terminal in Framingham MA unloading the cars off the trains in the seventies.
