10/03/22 Build Week Gang

[DanNJ]

Per Ford Chat I’m on Railcar# AOK 501521 as of 10/29. I called the automated system and it looks like as of today it is near Decatur IL (I think that’s what I heard), so progress!
ETA still showing as 12/1-12/7, I guess once it gets to NJ the Newark rail yard is extremely messy

Mine is at the same location.. so must be on the same train, even tho the rail car numbers are very different

 

[westPhilly mach]

I have no idea where mine is at this point, all I have is delivery dates 11/15-21/22 which cant get here fast enough

Does this mean its getting moved to next train? It seems like it will be delivered on last day of my original estimated window.

After being at Ramp 6P in Kansas City Mc, MO since at least October 20, Ford chat provided the below update today.

The vehicle location is Ramp 6U, Muncie, KS. Railcar # TTGX159262 (Norfolk Southern Corp).

Just chatted with Ford. It seems like night time is good time to chat since I got through right away where as in the mornings, it takes up to 30 mins.

Good to hear @lucky13 and @mello

Our train seems to have left Drew, IN (Muncie) this morning. Almost half way here to Philly, but as previously stated, it may slow down a lot once it enters PA.

This is the route it seems to be taking:
Clapper, MO > Decatur, IL > Delphi, IN > Drew, IN (Muncie)

Are you calling the automated line for tracking? I tried calling and can't seem to understand. I just know its in MO as of last night but not sure what city.

Yes, I am calling the automated line and yes, it is very hard to understand .. so some of these are my closest guesses

As both our Mach Es are going to GA our rail cars may be part of the same train.

I called NS and my railcar was at the NS Mixing Center, which I believe just refers to the Automotive terminal in KC. I would guess that my Mach E was moved from the ramp and was loaded onto a rail car. Not sure if train has left the yard yet as tacking info was from yesterday afternoon.

It seems like they are trying to load up trains that go to same states. A member in 10/10 week build located in GA who's car was built couple days later from mine seems to be on similar tracking as ours.

As of this morning FC status has not changed for me. Located at Ramp 6P, as of 27th.

Did my first check in with Ford chat. No real update, they still have it in KC at Ramp 6R.

My car arrived in Internati, MO a couple weeks ago and was then moved to Ramp 6R in Richards-gebaur, MO and then today was moved to Ramp 6M in Argentine, KS. Is it normal to have it bounce around to so many different railyards in KS/MO prior to finally being sent along? Final destination is Houston, Texas.
