What date did it ship? I'm in Houston also and wondering the timeline once it's shipped.
Edit: Nvm, I see in your post history it was 11/8.

It made it to Pearland, not sure where it gets taken off, or if it has. It got to the car lot off Hardy Toll last night.

@mpeugeot , can you tell me the path your Bronco took to Texas? Mine was in Gibson, IN which seemed like it was on the way, now its in Ft. Madison, IA which is way northwest!

Rolling Hot through Mumford at maybe 15 mph... LOL, but we moving down the tracks.

Update... Departed Caldwell, TX and picking up speed to about 20 MPH.

Luling an hour ago!

Mine was at Blue Island for a couple of days. Transferred to Norfolk Southern there. Then went back to Indiana, transferred to a different train, then back to a different railyard IN CHICAGO! Fortunately I'm now on the move and have made it across Illinois into Iowa. Hoping it's moving south toward KC.

Train logistics make a lot of sense to train logistics people. They make no sense to the rest of us.

Bottom line is Blue Island is a big transfer station, so you're likely getting jockeyed around until on a new train.

ok, my rail-car shows Fort Madison Iowa this morning, that's hundreds of miles in the wrong direction LOL, but it looks like its on BNSF lines there? (just going by the rail-line color map through there), I hope its chugging on to KC, that's the only thing that would make sense from there.

It’s fun to track but it did meander. Michigan to Louisville, back into Ohio then Indiana, then Chicago. Once it got to “Gateway East” in St Louis it sat almost 2 days, then picked up major steam to Hearne - where it sat 30 hours. We know I will look back fondly on obsessively tracking an individual Union Pacific freight car for the first time in my life…

Wait, when do you sleep?

Yeah, mine did some crazy stuff, ended up going straight west across Illinois before coming down through Iowa. Arrived in KC last night - not I've just gotta hope a truck picks it up quickly to get it the last 120 miles!

Don't get too worked up about the route it takes - trains travel a whole lot more like regional jets than cars. Sometimes gotta go west to go south.

Thanks for the Rail number

When I call for status it states it is in New Jersey with date of Oct 29th... it was shipped Nov 2nd and it is coming to Texas?
Do you see any different status?

I'm confused about what to do lol. Our window sticker has said convoy but my dealer said rail. 11/5 build, shipped 11/14. Palsapp still says pending, and I haven't figured out how to look up rail yet. Any ideas? VIN 1FMEE5DP1MLA89721

Mine went to Louisville, Kentucky; Cincinnati, Ohio; Chicago, Illinois; Pine Bluff, Arkansas;Tyler, TX; Herne, TX, and hopefully soon to San Antonio, TX. Traveling round and round since 31 October so far - when my "warranty" allegedly started. Thanks, but I want a full 36 month Warranty. At least they didn't start it in August!

36 month warranty doesn't start until sold at dealership.

36 month warranty doesn't start until sold at dealership.

How would you explain this then?
