I gotta say, it's not as fun posting train updates since it's mostly people sitting in purgatory or waiting for their Bronco to be picked up from the final train yard. I feel guilty, lol.

Please provide updates, we all enjoy seeing them regardless. It also provides hope to others

I popped in just now to check on all our purgatory peeps. No big push backs here yet? A few ladies in the Bronco Ladies Club Facebook group got their EDDs pushed to March, April and May.. Not sure of their build weeks. Hoping for all of your sakes, the long delays are due to things that happened after our build week and won't affect you guys

Your last sentance is very intriguing, Jessica!!

Last update was 1 am departure from Bellevue, Ohio (or at least I think), sometimes the system isn't very clear on the location it's trying to say. Hoping in the morning I'll have a new location status.

Sorry no insider information on it, just hoping all of you, our build week buddies, don't get your EDDs bumped that far out

I was caring for a sick kid for a few days there so I didn't even think about it much, but now that everyone is healthy, I'm raring to go get her! Lol!

Wow, 705 pages, finally caught up from like 667 or something like that

If anyone has to call Norfolk Southern instead of CSX to track their train, the commas in the number to automate the whole call is a little different than CSX. Here's the template:

1-800-635-5768,,,,,,2,,,8849#,,,XXXXXX#,,,,,1

8849 is if your rail car starts with TTGX, and just replace the set of X's with your number.

Very nice, I tried to compose one for Union Pacific but their system is terrible so I've just been using CSX.

I'm not a fan of how the HBTFD version extends beyond the plate, so I picked up the one from KR Off-Road.

I kind of wish I would have realized this before ordering the HBTFD mount… oh well, I don't plan on actually running it – just wanted to be "legal".

Back home! Finally! Dealer was fantastic. Monaco Ford in Glastonbury, CT. Would most definitely recommend!

That ice chest is badass, what a great dealer!

I've been in a similar boat…

I just tried CSX for the first time and not sure what the deal is...

It says released by customer in Princeton, Indiana June 15th, 1:59PM. So obviously that isn't right.

That's interesting. Well at least there's one that's working

Looking up previous posts someone said they don't always match, so perhaps the system is running behind or something. Maybe tomorrow the status will change for one of them.

So now my pizza tracker doesn't work at all, anyone else getting that.

 

[Cat]

Well...like clockwork...my Window Sticker updated to today's date.

Yeah.
