11/14/22 Build Week Gang

[miccer88]

According to Ford, my MME also arrived yesterday 11/24 in Laredo, TX, probably traveled together with @racer432's MME. They don't know anything new about Rail company or Rail car, other than KCS, so I assume KCS will take it up all the way up to Kansas City, at the very least.

I'm not clear what the next transit legs are for a NYC destined MME, if anyone who knows can help.

Does anyone know how to track a KCS rail car # in the US?
I was given a KCSM rail car number before, but recall reading that they were not traceable within Mexico, so now that it's in the US, I'd like to give it a shot.

Still bad-not-good-at-all ETA of early January.

At least yours is in the states. Mine is still sitting on some ramp in Lecheria Mexico. It’s been there 4 days now

What's your ETA according to ford.com?
Are you in New York City, NY?
Your profile says New City, NY.

I think that the total count in transit within Mexico for mine was 6-7 days (remember, yours might be moving within Mexico, Lecheria is just the location of the most recent update).

Comparing it to someone's post in another thread indicating the intervals along the way to Kansas City, it looks like transit in Mexico went from about 4-5 days to 6-7 as in my case and also racer432's...

Sunday Nov. 20th was Day of the Revolution in Mexico, which was also legally observed this Monday Nov. 21st as a National Holiday. This is one of their big National Holidays, probably like our 4th of July.
So, I'm going to assume that the Tequila was flowing freely both of these days, and this Cargo moved very little or not at all during that time, which would account for 2-3 days slippage in timeline.

I think that my ETA (early to mid January) is so bad because my MME is hitting all the Holidays and bumps along the way:
Nov. 20-21st, Mexican Revolution Day
Nov. 24th, US Thanksgiving
Dec. 9th, Rail Strike until who knows when, and cargo actually stops moving days earlier if the strike is a go.
Dec. 24-25th, Christmas Eve & Day.
Jan. 1st, New Year's Day.
And we all know that work doesn't just pick up where it left off after a big holiday

Yes I’m in Rockland county so essentially NYC when it comes to shipping. My ETA is 1/8-1/16. I’m just super impatient at this point. Been waiting nearly a year for the car

For mine coming to Chicago my ramp 1 has RC6R on the window sticker ramp 2 is blank. No idea what that means.

I’ve contacted my Sales on this Wednesday the 23rd and then FordChat yesterday 25th both of them state no update since the 21st still

But FordChat is saying it’s on the train and moving….

I have RU2G, in NJ but dealer is in DC. Am I able to track using that rail code?

That is the ramp code, not the Railcar number which is what you'll need to track
