Mine changed to .. expect delivery 12/25 - 31. If that actually happens the I get 7500$ credit and have a truck for Christmas. Was not expecting that … Crazy times lol.
We must be in the same railcar? My truck also says expected delivery 12/25 - 31 and is coming to Seattle. TTGX604467 on BNSF.

I assume so, but haven’t chased it down.

When I initially talked to ford chat on 12/2 they said eta 12/16-12/22. The next week they said eta was not available and I was told it was on a chip hold. On 12/10 it updated to built and that was the last until this morning when it arrived.

Though my experience is with CSX, I doubt there'd be substantial differences with UP -- delivery estimates are for when the rail car arrives in the destination yard. It could be a day or more before that car is released from the train to another part of the yard, where it can then be unloaded. Once it's unloaded the truck is either impounded or immediately rolled onto a carrier for final mile transport. In my case the process took almost exactly seven days, to the hour, and the over-road final mile delivery was only 30 miles.
Looks like you were right @indubitalist. I just got confirmation from my dealer that my railcar is in California and will arrive tonight at the rail yard (consistent with UP tracking)! It looks likely that I’ll take delivery this year 🤞.

I’m also in Michigan. My shipping estimate was 12/19 - 12/25, but they changed it to 12/20 - 12/26 two days ago. (Not sure why)

I had another member of this forum tell me that Michigan deliveries are likely to show up at your dealership before the online system even tells you that it has shipped since the system only updates overnight.
