✅ 8/22 Lightning Build Week Group

Looks like CSX changed the time the train rolled into Buffalo from 9/23/3:45am to 9/24 2:42pm. They still show the delivery to Selkirk, NY at 11am today but I assume that will slip until Monday.

Same thing happened to my train. It arrived twice to Buffalo. Now I have no ETA at all from CSX.

Since it is a hub maybe some cars disconnect from the train and they reassemble what continues. Hopefully they think ahead and put all those cars near the caboose.

Hopefully, they get a move on!!!!

Mine has been saying Monday 9/26 at 11am since Friday. Car TTGX978651. Maybe it was on a different train and they will be merged in Buffalo?

I have now been updated to Departed Buffalo NY for Selkirk. ETA to E Brookfield is 9/26 4:30. Also, I came across this CSX route map, the best I’ve seen.

Still sitting at east Brookfield for me. Ford dot com has my estimated delivery at 9/30 to 10/6 now.

Having driven the truck for a few days now, I can honestly say that it's worth the wait! I feel guilty for being one of the first in the group to get it, but hoping the rest will be caught up soon. No major issues with it yet other than hands-free bluecruise not working, but it seems like a known problem, atleast with Mach-e drivers where the maps can't update OTA. I had to go into the dealership today and explain the problem to them, and they should take care of it next week.

originally when i got the "ship" update from ford, i asked for a the railcar and they didn't have it. after a few days, they gave me one, but now for the past week when i ask for updates, they say there isn't a railcar # associated with my truck. is that normal? apparently its been in Blue Island, Illinois since the 21st

today is also my original ETA before the delays/chip hold...sigh

Apologies for the cross-post - Just posted the following in the 8/15 group, but it answers your question....

My truck was in Blue Island for 10 days. My "update" from today is:
"I am unable to track a live location once a order is in transit. I do show the last location was Blue Island, IL. The railcar details aren't available at this time."

For the ETA i got a single date now. "ETA 10/7/22" which is the last day of my previously given range.

So progress, i guess.

thanks for your update. gives me some solace. mine has been pretty similar. going from indiana harbor to riverdale, now at blue island. all in the same general area. hopefully its actually on the move and they just don't have the most up to date info.

Now the ETA for the lightning train to Selkirk, NY is Tuesday 9/27 11am (2 day delay from Sunday 11am). Who else is on that train and what is your color just in case we have any dings . We are iced blue silver, the last of its kind!

Atlas Blue. I checked this morning and saw the delay.

My truck was delivered to the depot in East Brookfield at 7:25 pm this evening! My dealer is a mile away. Let’s see how long it takes now.
