I asked my dealer for the rail car number a few days ago, but havent gotten a response.

I chatted with Ford customer service today and they said, "I see that the vehicle is in transit. I see that the vehicle was received at Junction Point (Csx Transportation) in East Saint Louis, IL at April 19, 2022. The ETA is April 28, 2022-May 04, 2022."

I'm guessing from that response that it is not arriving in Florida tomorrow (April 28th).
I've checked palsapp.com and ordertrack.app, they show status as "pending" with an Origin of Orlando.
So, I am guessing it still takes a train ride down to Orlando before it gets on a convoy.

Any idea what route the rail took went up to IL?
Is it normal to sit for a week+ at one rail yard before continuing on another train?

Mine took almost 5 weeks via rail to Orlando then 5 days sitting waiting on convoy in south Orlando to dealership. It went OK, Kansas, IL, OH, Atlanta, 2 stops in north FL then Orlando, over a 32 day trip.
