If your rail car takes the same route as @TxBadlands did, you are scheduled to depart Hearn today at 1700 on train MHELF 16. The schedules change. But this would put you in at Kirby Yard 12/17 0400.

So wait.. mine won’t show up until tomorrow at Kirby? Meaning Saturday pickup probably? I thought it was showing up today by 4 at Kirby.

Apparently I'm the talk of the dealership for knowing what a railcar number is and where the car is ("how does she KNOW that?") LOL Because of @ASlaugh!

What dealership are you at? The guys at Covert have been pretty amused by how much I know as well. They wouldn’t give me my rail car number so I got it myself and have been tracking despite them telling me not to worry about it, they’d track it

Did everyone else tracking on OVISS wake up to a new interface this morning? Visibility seems more limited.

I have to drive to far South Texas to pick up mine; if it does hit SA in the wee hours tomorrow, not sure whether their truck will get it in time for a Saturday pickup or it'll be after the weekend.

Mine isn’t losing at all. It’s saying server error.

I will lose my sh*T if I have to pick up after the weekend. Lol I’m so over this.

Sorry! I need to back away from the tracking as I’m obviously starting to expect the worst

Good Am and Happy Thursday!!! We are moving nicely Westward and now departed Winslow, AZ.. BNSF is giving me a ETA of 12/20 (Monday and that was verbally) with is much earlier then Ford had. We will see. Have a very Happy Bronco Day

Update:
@CitizenEraser - Your train ride is over!

Yep! Placed at industry at 3:39am. The UP phone number says it is loaded and the status is now "____ to unload" but I can't make out what it's saying. I think maybe "held to unload".

So now I need to patiently wait for my Bronco to be off-loaded. I'm sure they're a minimum 1 day behind due to the snowstorm that hit us yesterday - we got at least 8 inches.

I've never been able to see my VIN on United Road or palsapp so I asked my dealership who Ford uses to transport vehicles from the train yard. It's a company called ATG that is plagued by the same problem as other carriers, "no drivers".

But our dealership supposedly is the only one in Utah with their own car carrier and they have been heading over once a day and grabbing 10 vehicles at a time. So how long it takes to get mine to the dealership just depends how many vehicles are sitting there waiting for a ride. He said maybe 3, 4, 5 days. So close, yet so far away!

Thanks again for all the updates, @ASlaugh!

That's superb news... Happy for ya! I have got zero news about my delivery. What tracker did you use to get the info that it was delivered to your dealer?

Which dealer did you use? I drove by McRee Ford yesterday and no Broncos (apart from demos) on the lot. I've been checking autotrader and the dealer's website to see if it has shown up on their inventory. It hasn't, but my fiancé's never did either haha. The Ford tracker is down for me, so I'm going with they are updating it to say it arrived at the dealer (wishful thinking).

My railcar luck has definitely run out. Still stuck in Richmond, CA after almost 48 hours, just waiting to go the last 20 miles to the destination railyard

 

[JAC]

yes, after yesterdays news... I still had to call. I was feeling outta sorts.... It's been such a process... I had to call again.... "Hello, My name is Joshua and I'm a Bronco tracking addict."

So, I called and received confirmation that rail car has been paced at customer location "Portland, OR" at 0200 this morning.... Can only hope for some unloading today, dealer pick up and delivery to dealer lot... PDI, and maybe pick up on Saturday!!!! I know I'm asking a lot... But, staying hopeful!!!

Cheers All!!! It's been an awesome ride and I'm hoping we'll keep this thread open. We've been through so much!!! LOL

 

[bronconitis]

Can I have @ASlaugh or someone else do a check on my Bronco? My mods popped on 12/02. I received the Ford email on 12/14 that the "final touches" to my Bronco are being performed...so it's still "in production". My VIN is 1FMDE5CH8MLB07136. I guess it's still at MAP and hasn't found a train yet?

 

[SCADABronx]

It's confirmed, United Road changed their OVISS software and it no longer seems possible to look up rail car numbers:
