Just found out mine is in KC but Ford chat still doesn’t have a rail car number. Got their on July 8th. Hopefully we get some movement.

From what I have seen on the forum, the MMEs get off loaded and trucked to connecting transportation fairly quickly. Your MME will more than likely be transferred to Canadian Pacific Railway https://www.cpr.ca/en/choose-rail/network-and-facilities

Are you asking the US chat? They were much better than the Cnd line for me. Gave me my rail car no problem.

Yea I am using the USA chat. At least I’m able to get a rough idea. But it looks like the Canadian pacific route kinda sucks going west according to their website

Found this in another post. Canadian Pacific automated system (1-888-999-8111 - leave off the letters in the rail car # when inputting the number) To track

I chatted with Ford this morning, vehicle is still waiting in Laredo, TX.

This number definitely works. I was given my CPR rail car info from Ford chat yesterday and they show the car as being in KC still. The CPR reflects that same rail car via their tracking as having made it to the Toronto yard on July 6 at 9:34 pm. Don’t know who’s right at this point. I don’t think that the rail car would’ve necessarily made it back to KC in 3 days knowing the speed with which they actually travel but also seems that to have made it up from Mexico in 2 weeks is also not realistic. Waiting a call back from the dealer to confirm what they can see in the VVR.

Was able to get a rail car # from Ford chat this morning. Apparently my car has already left KC and is taking a bit of a roundabout way to get to Washington, it's up in Minneapolis today. Kind of exciting to see it on the way, it's my understanding that KC is the biggest choke point so now I'm wondering if the 8/3-8/9 estimate is conservative, keeping my fingers crossed.

I am, somehow, still awaiting shipment...

I'm in Toronto waiting for mine (last update from the dealer was that it was in production on 6/9). I'm very interested in hearing what you find with this rail car.

Just received railcar-COER900529 (Norfolk Southern Corp). Anyone know how to track it or where that might have left from? I know Norfolk is VA but not sure how their rail system works or where they picked up from.
Never mind, I found the 800 # for Norfolk Southern, it’s in Missouri as of earlier today.

From thread another thread (https://www.macheforum.com/site/threads/🧭-mach-e-build-tracking-links.10130/):

NS Norfolk Southern
1. Call 800-635-5768
2. Press 2.
3. Press 2.
4. Enter the letters on the numeric keypad then press #. As in: TTGX will be 8849
5. Enter the numbers then press #. It wasn't taking my voice prompts but typing worked.

Thanks, just edited my comment, I just found that info and was able to track it.

I got rail car information on Saturday, but Norfolk Southern still has no data on my car as of this afternoon. Only guess is it's queued at the rail station.

Heard back from the dealer this afternoon and he had the same info as did Ford corporate. That said, CPR now reflects the train as on the move having departed KC this evening just after 6:15 pm. Progress. Means next major junction is Chicago on its way north through Detroit-Windsor. I expect that by around the end of this week/beginning of next week it should hit the border…. The auto delivery gods be willing.

What does CPR stand for?
