Csx schedule shows 3 days 8 hrs for weekend shipments and 4 days 2 hrs for Mon through Thu shipments to my local yard. Hopefully that means it will be in Birmingham the end of the week. I hope those schedules are accurate.

You wish! I’ve been sitting on that status for a week or so and no ‘Shipped’ date. Going to NC/SC.

Hmm, my order tracker went from “Awaiting Shipment” to “In Transit”

All reservation pages still show the same, which is “shipped”. My ETAs are once again gone. GDMT! @Commercial Sales Ford this is your fault for turning the train around.

Anyone else get changes?

From what I’ve seen it takes 1-2 days for the train to get to my rail yard. From there the cars seem to get batched into 4-5 for delivery. There’s 6 right now pending pickup for my dealer. Average days it sits at the yard seems to be about 5 days.
Hey now you made the executive decision to turn it around to come get me, but classic sales person to always been running behind anyway. I'm sure the Ford tracker is just messing with you again. You'll see it by Christmas I promise.

I'm not sure which rail yard is right. You are in Jersey right?

I thought we shipped out of New Boston, MI?
My truck will be going to Twin Oaks, PA.

I just searched the same you did and got a schedule. But tried New Boston to Twin Oaks, Dearborn to Twin Oaks, Flat Rock to Twin Oaks...nothing. Not a good sign...

Edit: New Boston to Birmingham shows up.
So I guess this just means there's no scheduled trains from New Boston MI - where I know my car is/was - to Twin Oaks PA, where I know where my car is supposed to go.

@Ford Senior Master, can I have them ship it to you and I'll meet you at the TN, VA, NC border. Does that work? I'll give you $20 for gas...

I'm not sure about New Boston. I just used Dearborn because Flat Rock was not listed. New Boston adds a couple days. Where does Norfolk Southern figue in to all this because I know some track their rail cars that way.
