Current Shipping Delays

[kevdog0710]

Does anybody know how to track a Canadian National Railways car? I can only find instructions for CSX and Norfolk Southern through the search feature

There are Intermodal numbers on their website. It may operate the same as CSX and NS.
Canada 866-886-6601
US 866-482-6025

I believe mine has reached its final destination on the train and now will ship truck the last 250 miles, is there a way to track the truck shipment now?
TIA

I would get a Vehicle Visibility printout from my dealer, which shows every step of the vehicles build and delivery progress (and lack thereof). On it will show which way it's being shipped. If by rail, name and even railcar # and if via convoy, the trucking outfits name is there. Once you have the convoy companys name, go to their website and see if they have a tracking option (mine does), and if not, you'll have a number to call. Have your VIN and Dealer info ready if you call.

I tracked it today and it hit Wentzville, MO. Tracker said, “notification ground only.” Im not sure what that means, but if I had to guess it means its railroad trip is done, and it’ll go by stringer to my dealer in MO.
For all the complaining I’ve done about how I hope it wasn’t mudded in by Plant employees, or that there better not be rust underneath.. hah, I just want my damn truck.
I can clean it.
I can treat and undercoat most all the rust.
May still raise a stink with corporate though!
Will be nice if it’s pristine, wouldn’t complain about that!

Here's a list of the different abbreviations you'll get.

You can try putting your vin in the untied road website, if you see info come up with a load number that's them being used. No info would probably mean not them. Easy to try.

The very nice lady at NS said my railcar is available for placement. I dont see that in the screenshot above, Google didn't show me anything. Maybe she meant active placement?

I am curious as to what the realistic shipping wait times are at the moment. I don't know if there are any differences in shipping time between rail/convoy. List your shipping method and current length of time from built, not counting those still on chip hold. I am trying to gauge what a realistic est for delivery is instead of the random BS Ford is pumping out. Thought this would be easier than digging through all the weekly build threads. Thanks all!

My buddy has a Super Duty that was built 6/14/2022. It arrived via rail to Columbia SC on 7/3/2022. The railyard is only 125 miles away and its still sitting at the railyard waiting for Convoy

Sent emails to the Ford corporate contacts each of the past two days and never received a response, but just got the notification that my truck shipped. Not sure if it made a difference or is just a coincidence but I’m not complaining! 65 days from when the build was complete

What emails did you send to?

I believe that means there is a spot open for the train to move into the final yard. Should go to actual placement next.

Well, Ford’s bogus delivery week date range is going to be missed. It ends today. As of 1:00am this morning my truck is PCON with Norfolk Southern.

Does CN even have auto racks ?

Registering just sends you dealership invoice emails for the next 30 days of each time a load of vehicles are dropped off. You have to be on mobile to get that to work.

Dealer told me 3 to 6 months to get my tuck when I ordered. Friday will be 6 months. My truck arrived at the Port of Wilmington yesterday, what's the chances I have it under the 6 month mark? Hopefully it gets loaded on a truck and delivered quick.
I wasn't able to closely track the journey since the Railcar tracing doesn't work for my Railcar. It does seem to have made the trip from ramp 58 to Delaware pretty quickly, maybe 6 days.
If anyone has trouble tracking on Norfolk Southern, choose option 3 and speak directly to a representative, they have all been very happy to look up and share information.
