I've been tracking this train for a couple days, but I'm a little confused.

The robo voice keeps saying the train is headed for Gibson, Indiana and will be there on the 15th at 5a... that's a long way from where it needs to be but I'm guessing that's just another interim stop. Another bit that's confusing me is ... where is Gibson Indiana? Is that IHB Gibson Yard (in Hammond Indiana), or Gibson County, Indiana? The two aren't particularly close. I guess I'll find out eventually as the natural course of events unfolds.

Anyway, the route so far:
We left Wayne MI sometime before noon on the 10th.
Stopped in Walbridge, OH at 3:35 P on the 10th.
Stopped in Garrett Indiana in the afternoon on the 11th.
Still reporting there as of this writing, though the arrival time changed to an hour ago.

I'm hoping it'll pick up a lot of pace soon. Right now it's taking about a day to go 2 to 4 hours' drive for each leg.

How are you able to get that much detailed info on the train? I think my train is right behind yours (left Wayne, MI the 10th around midnight bound for Gibson, IN), but that's all the info I've gotten from the robocall.

Yes, it's the former. "Gibson" is actually in Hammond, IN, and it's part of the Indiana Harbor Belt Railroad (IHB). It's used to classify railcars of new autos into blocks for western destinations. I guess that process is why our railcars stay at Gibson for a couple of days.

Just got my tear tag . I’m a little under 3 hours from MAP here in Cleveland so hopefully shipping via convoy doesn’t take very long.

Nice! Mine too! Have a Tear Tag and a Pizza Tracker status change to 'Built' with a 1/11/2023 date. No emails or, dare I say it, any picture(s).

 

[johnavp1989]

Tear tag just showed up. No pizza tracker update yet but I'm sure that's just a matter of time. Here's hoping there are no shipping hold ups!

Great. I hope they get to the rest of 12/22 today.

Just in case this is helpful info for others. I had a 12/19 blend date with modules and tear tag before the holiday break. However, while other 12/19 blends were getting their ship dates, my status still showed "scheduled for production". I just spoke to my dealer who told me there is a hold for chip availability. He advised me to expect a February ship date.

Good to know! So if you get a Built status with a date, could that mean that you're not on a 'chip hold'?

That would be my assumption based on my current status.

Called Ford and got my rail car number, so I wandered over to the Tracker page for the rail car tracking instructions...wow...the CSX voice recognition is a disaster. I found this on the Maverick sister website after a quick Google search and works like a charm.

For step 3 below, T = number 8 on the touchpad, then 1 for the first number (TUV) on 8. Continue with the remaining letters, then #. So T (81) T (81) G (41) X (92) #

Remember do not stay on to talk with a person.​

​

1. Call CSX: 1-800-235-2352​

​

2. The first voice prompt: enter 1#.​

(for location)​

​

3. Enter Letter code. TTGX becomes​

81814192 #​

​

4. Then enter the number part of you rail car ID.​

And then enter #​

​

5. At the next voice prompt enter ## (same as saying "done")​

​

Listen for the location information.​

​

When done, hang up.​

Just checked this, and it says the railcar is empty in Nashville, TN as of 1/12!!

12-21 blend date- 873/1130
Dealer just text me updated information I am built awaiting shipment( estimated 1/18-1/24 arrival). Ship by truck. NO tear tag modules popped

 

[Xjeepowner]

Just checked mine this morning and it just left Phillipsburg Tx at 8:53.
I'm in North Houston so it should be in Houston by this evening.
Then it's wait time for the transport to pick it up and take it to the dealer.
I'm getting excited!!!! It's only been a year.

12-22 blend date, 224/1568, modules and tear tag

 

[johnavp1989]

Ford chat just confirmed that my vehicle is also on a chip hold (hence no built status despite having a tear tag). They provided an estimated delivery date of 1/20 -1/26 but that seems optimistic given the hold.
