I'm not sure, but I did see my car go through Glasgow, MT (after going through Gibson, IN) which was marked as BNSF and I know the final destination is on BNSF too.
I just brought in the X-plan spreadsheet found here on the forums and said this is what I want and how much am I going to pay. No haggling. Keep calling around and you'll find a dealer with the right price.
My car is on a BNSF train and I found a tool that estimates shipping durations on the BNSF site.

Just thought I'd post it here for anyone else who's watching their car traveling on BNSF lines.
Go to www.etis.ford.com, go to vehicle, enter your VIN, then go to Vehicle Software, then Summary. It'll show the last date/time the various control modules in the car were tested.
Winder sticker shows the last transport method to your dealership. So if your dealership is close to the rail depot, it'll say RAIL, otherwise it'll say CONVOY.
I think you are right. COTUS showed In Transit on my car but the Dealer was showing that the car was still at Flatrock. I think COTUS In Transit == Transit Arrangements made/Actually In Transit. Similar to the "In Production" status showing one week before actual production. EDD disappearing...

Woot! I'm in "Awaiting Shipment", though no build date in ETIS, yet ETIS shows software on my car being last checked at 2am this morning.
I've been watching how long other cars take to ship to OR. They seem to take about 2-3 weeks though the order they ship must be related to rail...
