I need a user name and password to use the referenced link.
I could never get it to work either. I read elsewhere that they stopped allowing people to register awhile back. Sigh. Our Maverick waited for 5 days at the ramp, but then we got a call that it had been delivered!

Ours is a hybrid and it sure was worth the 9 month and 5 day wait!! Here's why.

We're averaging 44.5mpg, though we've seen it as high as 66mpg!

go here https://www.unitedroad.com/delivery-receipt
enter your vin and below it you should see a link to register
(NOTE: lots of folks cant see it if you are on a desktop and it actually works better on a mobile phone browser)
also it may take a few times of trying to register, i know it did for several people just keep at it and it will eventually let you know you successfully registered
I tried multiple times from multiple browsers on computer and iPhone and never once saw a way to register. They seem to have stopped allowing registrations.

So does anyone have experience with tracking on United Road Car Hauling Service? I was able to put in my VIN to get a Delivery Receipt which shows Load Number and correct destination. Does this mean a) it's going to be picked up in Chicago Heights rail yard and this is the load number, b) it's been picked up and is being driven to the dealer in Barrington IL, or c) it's been delivered to the dealer?
Are you certain your dealer is using United Road? My dealer uses three different services and my sales guy told me they don't know which carrier will pick it up until they actually do it. He wasn't paying attention and suddenly it was delivered!

Keeping this updated in case anyone else is in a similar boat. Talked to both my dealer and Ford customer service today and both were able to inform me that my truck was last in New Jersey as of Wednesday and there was a rail delay that is pushing my delivery out by a week or so. Curiously both Ford and my dealer confirmed that there's no rail car number listed on the VVR.
Looks like the wait is almost over! My truck is awaiting pickup at the rail yard in Spencer, MA. So whatever the delay was in NJ must have been resolved on Thursday or Friday. Hopefully I’ll have the truck in my hand by the end of the week. Hope others have seen similar progress. I find it odd that most folks in New England (who got rail car info) seemed to have their trucks go from Mexico up to Illinois and out through Ohio/New York, whereas mine never showed any rail car info and went through New Jersey. Maybe a different transportation path?

Maybe some weather issues they needed to dodge? Or maybe it's just that the majority of trucks shipping when yours did were headed to NJ and yours took that route to get nearer home? 🤷🏻‍♀️

I am just curious because I see a lot of different information here. Will my Maverick change from BNSF to another carrier in Chigao if heading east to PA, or will I be able to track it through BNSF? I see people talking about CSX, but mine has been BNSF since Mexico and now it seems to be stuck/bouncing around different rail yards in Chicago. The automated line says shipment interchange received, Dolton, Illinois. It was in Thornton, Dolton, Gateway Yard, and now it went back to Dolton, where it has been for a few days. I don’t understand this at all. It has been over a month since it shipped and still has a ways to go to get to PA. It seems to keep getting stuck I large cities. Thanks.
Mine was in BSNF Railcar and I was told after leaving Chicago, the tracking could be found using the Norfolk Southern tracking phone number. That worked for me.

Thanks for that input! My Maverick is now in Conway PA, just outside of Pittsburgh. Getting closer!

It’s in your state!! So so close!

mine is in Gibson Indiana now and I’m just thrilled that it’s no longer in Illinois 😁

Well looks like mine is doing the same dance that some others experienced T_T went from Dolton, Illinois after like 5-6 days there to Gibson, Indiana for about two days, and now it's in Hegewisch, Illinois as of this morning. Illinois is like a pit of quicksand and my truck is struggling to get out... At least I hope that the news that it is in Hegewisch means that it is getting out of this area within the next day or so. My estimated delivery at dealership was supposed to be between 3/22 and 3/28 but if it's still in Illinois and it needs to get to VA, I'm not sure how likely that is....

Same run around in Illinois for us. It arrived 3/20 at 10:35 p.m. IR . . . . don't know what IR means. Prior information always includes Gateway yard. . . . still waiting for clarity and our Maverick!

Yeah, that is exactly what mine did. It didn’t stay in Hegewish long and once it got moving out of there, it didn’t seem to stop until it arrived at Conway, PA. It traveled through Indiana and Ohio in 1 day.

I could be wrong, but from the experience I have calling, I think IR means Intechange Received. XLTLUXRED gave a good breakdown a few pages back of what all this terminology means. Chicago seems to be a mess for everyone. Just know that it will bounce around for a bit and then move on.

Like SSBG said, I think it is Interchange Received. Mine says the exact same time though so we seem to be tracking fairly closely! I'll keep giving updates when I hear them. I hope we don't sit long!

Yeah, that is exactly what mine did. It didn’t stay in Hegewish long and once it got moving out of there, it didn’t seem to stop until it arrived at Conway, PA. It traveled through Indiana and Ohio in 1 day.
That's fantastic news! I was hoping for the same fast movement as I saw from Hermosillo all the way up to Missouri once it did get out of that area. Is yours offloaded and awaiting car carrier? I have my fingers crossed that I can get it by the end of this week but I'm not holding my breath.

Mine will actually have to travel to New Castle, Delaware before it is offloaded from the train. Then it will be picked up for transport and driven back up to Harrisburg, PA to my dealership.

What about yours?
