ETA moved to 8/2-8/8...on train in Gateway Yard, IL. Hope its on high ground and gets moving towards Oklahoma soon!!
Are we on different trains after all? Mine got to Blue Island yesterday, but I don't pretend to actually know what that means.

Dealer said it should be here early next week, but I haven't heard anything official.

When you check the trains via the phone, your car may be on a train car that doesn't stop where your car was offloaded. It can be a bit confusing but Ford knows once it's offloaded. Best to just wait it out!

Anyone who got their proof of life photos last week seeing any progress? Last I heard the rail car was at Blue Island, last Wednesday, but then it apparently got pulled into Metaverse.

Surely we're on a similar route. Not that I understand the labeling, but are you that GGTX prefix?
TTGX via Union Pacific

I just checked CSX. My railcar departed Delta, MO today. No ETA available.
Call the UP number. They give an ETA
800 877-5123
We are definitely not on same rail lol.

Now that my rig is sitting less than 30 miles from the dealership, I figured out something that makes the CSX check a lot easier.

After a few dozen unsuccessful attempts to say the initials for my rail car into the phone, I actually listened to a set of instructions. Granted, it took trying through the 3rd attempt on a single call to get the instructions, but here they are.

You can use the keypad to input the letters as well, but there's a little bit of a code to it. You hit the number for the letter and then the position that letter has on that number. For instance, the initials for my rail car were TTGX, so I entered 81 81 41 92.

That's probably been covered elsewhere in this thread, but it's a lot of pages deep and I didn't see anything with a search. Full disclosure - I didn't search all that hard.

Dealer told me that I should have mine next week. They have some mods to do on it for me as well.

Probably going to find some place in Oklahoma to take the boys off-roading, so maybe I'll see you on the trails.

Mine has been constructively placed in OKC…dealer contacting rail Monday and if unloaded will be sending a driver to pickup vs waiting on truck….
