Latest update from my dealer...

"The Ford system shows your Mach-E has landed in California. The last train station is in Mira Loma, Riverside. I'm hoping that is accurate which means we should have the car here at the dealership in few days."

It's happening.
Pictures. We need pictures on the forum. Hope it's even closer than a few days. :)

Tracing the line through Richards, MO, north it leads to Birmingham, MO (outside of Kansas City, MO) which looks to be the facility suggested in another thread showing where the cars will unload. That's actually a Norfolk Southern lot though.

Kansas City Southern has an International Freight Gateway on a spur just south of Kansas City (north of Richards, MO) that looks like it has the ability to unload cars. I'm betting they get unloaded here and transferred to trucks for at least some of the destinations. The site appears to be a repurposed Air Force base.

An earlier post listed www.palsapp.com to follow transport. Plugged in the VIN and it shows my Mach-E on Jan 9th was transported from Kansas City to the Muncie Ramp in Muncie, KS. Ford is brilliant in keeping the enthusiasm high.

Riverside is just an hour north of my dealer - I hope that's it for me as well.

Curious— what was the original ETA date when the car first shipped? Trying to gauge estimated vs reality.

Thats great - probably one of the first deliveries in San Diego. Also if its dropped off by Train in Riverside, it tells us that multiple modes of transport are used from KC (short distance trucks, trains and perhaps longer distance trucks in some areas) and will be hard for us to be able to track each step

My dealer, Encinitas Ford (Encinitas, CA), and my salesperson assigned to me, have been terrific keeping in touch with me. I just got an email from my sales person that my Mach-E was in Richards, MO on the train and scheduled to arrive the week of January 18th. On Monday the Ford site said it was shipped and due here the week of the 28th so that's great news today. My granddaughters made sure I'd be ready with a Christmas gift tee-shirt.

Congratulations, keep us posted

Based upon what I've seen, the date at the bottom of the window sticker is still updating with each update, including transfers during shipping. To understand the update though you'll have to have speak with someone who can look up the secondary status in the Ford system.

Mine had gone unchanged since 29 December but suddenly updated today. Of course, I see nothing that has changed except that bottom date.

Congrats!!
Mine's now on Platform 27 at Mira Loma-Riverside Train depot. Expecting it to make it to San Diego next week. I told the dealer to have them leave the key on the front tire and I'll pick it up there tomorrow. Apparently I'm not as funny as I think I am....
