Hello All,
First post here, just received a build date of 8/13 for my HE base. Does anyone know how long it generally takes for the window sticker to show up on the tracking site? The car was scheduled on June 23. Thanks in advance.

A week to a couple days before the build date, I think. I've heard different things, but the sticker generates closer to build date.

How does one go about tracking it? It is being shipped via Canadian National Railways. I have the car number. About to see what the Google says.

Edit:
Called CSX at 800-235-2352. Guess the system is way behind. Said the railcar is empty and in Pearland, TX as of March 5. So, that don't make much sense considering the car was just shipped from MI a few days ago. Hell, it was not built until June 13.

CSX isn't the same as CN (Canadian National)
Ford uses CN to get the cars from Flat Rock to Salem, IL where your railcar will flip to running on the Union Pacific railroad to San Antonio.

Once the car passes Salem, IL and is then on the UP, the VVR railcar number should let you track by phone on UP until it gets to SA.

Thank you for the info. I knew CN was not CSX but I thought I would try since the first 4 letters of the car were the same as the one in the link I posed. ETTX was the example and the same as the car number I was given.
It's been a long journey thus far what's another week of patiently standing by waiting.

Thanks again for the info. I have no clue how rail works other than it ain't fast. LOL

Does anyone have a lead on any dealerships that have any allocations available? I want to order a non cftp car, just tech pack and recaros.

This info is from the last time I tracked my shipment. Presume it still works:
If you use the automated voice system from the rail line, it tells you where the rail car is and the status.
Trace rail cars with Touch Trace: dial 1-877-ShipCSX (1-877-744-7279), options 2-1-3
After you type the "3", it will jump you to another system. Say "Location" and have your rail car number ready.
++++++++
Let us know if it still works this way.

That’s going to be tough. I ordered a base 11/22/21 and just last month my dealer got an allocation but I had to change it to a CFTP.

Same system as the other number. Same information provided. Need to wait a few days and see if it updates.

Thanks.
I just tried it with my old rail car number and it worked fine. Said the rail car arrived in Toledo, OH on 1 July at 1:40.
So we know the basic system still works.

After Salem IL, mine made it to mesquite tx in DFW and was delivered in about 1wk. I too had a CN railcar number, but it only tracked to Salem.

Hey guys I’m new to this site, kinda been watching and not saying much. I was told three weeks ago that the dealership I was working with was getting one allocation this year. I checked last Friday and still unscheduled material hold. I also have on my order the handling package. Yesterday I spoke with my dealer, I have vin and a build date of 8/15. I am very excited and can’t wait!
