I'm very interested to see how my Mach-E makes it to my dealer. It's currently on a Norfolk Southern train heading East (from Kansas City), but still very North. Pass through Ft. Wayne, IN at 1:56AM this morning.
Your car may join mine before I leave Conway, PA. It’s been there since Saturday evening.

At least no one is eating the bread crumbs as you follow them.

Wait. Where is @GoGoGadgetMachE ? Someone tell him that those are not donut holes.

I'm insulted you don't think I know donut holes from breadcrumbs. What kind of officer do you think I am?!?

Hi Guys, how are you tracking to this level of detail? I thought that once on the train, there was little information available.
Thanks.

As we’ve said before, there is a system called Vehicle Visibility that is available to dealers and others in Ford. Your dealer can provide you with this information.

Thanks! I'll bother my salesman and see what he has to say. Actually, he's been very good about answering questions and keeping me informed.

On another thread, @SnBGC said not to pay attention to Palsapp because it will just drive you crazy and not tell you much. I agree.

So, now back to my Palsapp :p. I think I understand it now. Here's my latest theory:
Currently it shows
Ford Mustang Mach-E Released from "jail"!?! 1612222900686


What it really says is it was delivered to Norfolk Southern after the test at Speedway was finished. Why the pending KC to Speedway? It was never used.
A while back, my pending pickup in DE vanished and was replaced by
Ford Mustang Mach-E Released from "jail"!?! 1612222900686


However, my car had already left KC for DE by the time this was issued. As a result, this pending freight bill will never ( ? ) be used and my car was trucked directly from DE to the KS Speedway with no record on Palsapp.

The last part of my theory is that while missing from the search by my VIN, the original pickup at New Castle, DE is still pending. I downloaded this today by searching for the Freight Bill #:

This will hopefully be easy for Jack Cooper to find when the autorack containing my car gets picked up from its current stopover in Conway, PA and finishes its trip back to DE.
I have seen all these freight bills myself of course. :p Of course mine did go to speedway for a week and ended up at the NS railyard 5 days after yours. No fair you got a 5 day head start! lol Hopefully the storm that just dumped on us doesn't caused any further delays.

My autorack is playing rabbit. It got a head start but is taking a nap. It's been in the rail yard in Conway, PA since Saturday night.

Perhaps waiting for other cars to join or trains leave certain days in a week?

Or was on the first train to Conway but that one went the wrong way from there, and is now awaiting a train to Wilmington, DE.
