✅ 6/6 Lightning Build Week Group

[Sea Ranch]

My bad. UP is the way to track it. Departed today. Next interchange is July 16 in west Chicago. Will depart there in the morning of July 16 is the info I got. So it's officially out of the Rouge.

Interesting. I was told my Lightning was loaded on a Canadian National Railway (CN) railcar.

I was told that my Lightning was loaded on a Canadian National Railway car at 11:20am local time on July 12th. The number I was given for the rail car was TTGX697098. It is on its way to Northern California.

Your most likely on your way to the IHB Blue Island Rail Yard WSW Chicago burbs…then transferring to BNSF…unfortunately, neither CNR nor BNSF provide automated tracing like UP and CSX…and, Ford VVR only gets limited and untimely location/status updates. Now, your patience will really be tested

Thank you. Now I know that I will just have to wait to hear from my dealership . At least I know it is on its way .

If your luck you possibly could be transferred to UP or CSX. If you get moved by CSX at all, my understanding is they’ll continue to track your rail car the rest of its journey even if they transfer it to another carrier.

FWIW, my 6/6 Shipped took a hair over 4 days to get to Blue Island and about 36 hours to get switched and to depart.

Good luck with your transit…hope you get your truck soon!!

...or a frantic message gets sent to Ford's information security team, and they suddenly lock down your truck to perform forensics on it, delaying its delivery by a few weeks...

Be careful what you wish for.

This is true.
i’m at 11 weeks since blend, not shipped. And taxman told me I was wrong that his would ship before my order, getting down to the wire.
it’s not a contest I wanted.

Mine seems to have been dropped at the bethel oaks PA pickup location. Now they need to deliver it to the dealer. I’m guessing about a week given how the dealer mannequin moved.

You might see updates late tonight or Thursday morning, this app touches databases we can't reach.

Yep, got my shipping notification about an hour ago! Estimated delivery dates are still as they were, 7/20 - 7/26.

I'm feeling pretty left out now, my truck is going to Prince George VA, so hopefully they sneak my truck with yours.

Would say let's have a lightning meet on the 31st, but I'm going to take the powerboost. That way I dont have to have range anxiety. Driving from palm beach to Ocala to pickup a new puppy

I’m stalking the 6/6 Thread bc my order got bumped from 6/6 to 6/13. I’m built but per the customer service rep yesterday my truck is waiting on its rail car to fill up and ship.

I’m wondering if my truck is waiting on y’all’s to be built! Im in FL too.

I got the shipped email this morning. Looks like I'm on the NorCal bound train with the rest of you!

TTX train cars seem to be some sort of co-op leasing company among the rail companies. They are used by most. So even though it may be TTX, it could be traveling by CN right now and the whole car transfered between rail companies. I was able to trace mine using UP, CSX had nothing at the time. Attached is a screenshot of another thread on how to trace.

At this point yours might ship any time even before me, ----STILL WAITING-----

Do they know who you are?!

*The* tracker of all trackers, or tracker of truckers... why don't you have the ultimate visibility?!!!

Seriously, good luck. I imagine there is a huge method to all the madness here, but sometimes it looks like complete unmitigated chaos.

Mine was "built" and then suddenly "it's on the truck and will be here tomorrow".

Reserved mine May 2021, placed order Jan 2022, delivered on June 14th 2022.
AMB Lariat, Hankook AT tires, console vault and retractable tonneau cover. Well worth the wait.

It would be awesome if a special delivery was in the works, but I honestly can't expect that, there are many folks in far worse situations than me, as a retired bureaucrat, I'm used to hurry up and wait......
