I have no idea! My dealer says they don’t know how to find the rail car numbers/letters to share with me.…so I have no way to track it with CSX.

That is utter shite! After some issues I got the internal spreadsheet at Greenway Orl in Feb, we got progress emails till shipping then I got my railcar # & convoy co name from the spreadsheet. Call the sales manager and then GM. They KNOW. Have you called the Ford Marketing # or used their chat feature?

It appears my truck is in that rail yard in Orlando now (IF I'm reading this correctly). So now who knows how long it will take for it to get hauled up to Apopka to my dealer.
How does this work? Do they wait until there are enough cars/trucks destined for a particular dealer to make a full load on the trailer before they haul them there? Or do they mix/match? Like 3 cars for Mullinax, a couple for Sun State Ford, one for Peacock Ford...and just haul them up to the various dealers...dropping off a few at each one?

Mine says that too... but is said to have started building on 5/13... so... who knows.

Delivery to Tamiami Ford in Naples, FL

But the Ford website still shows in production! The shipping info was there from 5/4.

Still help reading this report from you veterans...
"Origin" is listed as Orlando. The truck was built in Mexico and has to be shipped to Apopka, Fl (near Orlando). So....it's "Origin" cannot be Orlando. Hopefully they mean current location.
I assumed this meant it was sitting in a rail yard in or near Orlando waiting for the motor transport to show up to haul it to Apopka. Is that correct????

One more question for the Veterans out there.....is that Freight ID the Rail Car ID I can't seem to get from anyone? Hard to track it without the rail car ID.

No your freight # should have TTGX then a 6 digit # all of ours' came into FL on CSX. I'm thinking that # you have is a carrier convoy # now. It will wait in south Orlando till they have a carrier open. I highly doubt haulers are picking up partially loaded runs. When ours got to the dealer they had 2 full carriers the same day arrive. I'm sure Greenway, Mullinax and Peacock are still getting full carriers.

Yes, your truck in sitting in a rail yard in south Orlando. Mine sat there for 5 days before getting to the dealership.

We got stuck in production for 10 days I think. Check the Ford tracker and see if your modules have populated, they turn on as ea section of production is finished. That will give you an idea of timelines.
