Cross-posting this info I shared in my build week's thread (2 weeks ahead of this one):

For those of you that are able to get a rail car number for their Bronco, you can use CSX's automated phone service to check on its location: (800) 235-2352

I was able to track mine all the way from the Michigan plant to the automotive rail yard in Kent, WA.

If you're like me, and want to obsessively check in 10+ times per day, I recommend setting up a speed dial on your phone with the car number programmed in so you don't have to say anything or press any numbers.

For my rail car TTGX 982769, the speed dial looked like this:

(800) 235-2352,,1,,81814192,,,982769,,,##

The commas should be spaced out correctly so the timing of the prompts work every time. To create your own speed dial, replace the 81814192 and 982769 numbers with your info. For the first number (81814192), you will need to program each number combo that pertains to the letters of your rail car. In my example, the first T translates to 81 as the T is the first letter on the 8 key. The second sequence of numbers (982769) is the number portion of the rail car identifier.

Happy tracking!

Glad to hear some are on the way. I’m still waiting to get to built status for some reason. I didn’t get any thing that would require being added on after final assembly. Blend date was 7/26. Modules went live on 7/27. Tear tag populated and FordPass activate link showed up on 7/28. I called Ford Marketing today, but all they could say was it’s still in production which is what the tracker has said since 7/26. I did get a certificate out of it. So not a total bummer.

I asked no certificate for me. My add ons were SAS and Tow.

Oh man, thank you!! That worked flawlessly!! No more of the animated voice mistaking my TTGX for TDCX. Game changer.

I’m hoping you get yours soon too so we can all stay on this journey together. It’s been a fun ride going through this with you!
I’m loving it too! Thanks for making this crazy Bronco chick feel a little more normal or at least understood 😂 - that goes to everyone here, you all are awesome! Someday maybe we can all meet up. I’m planning on going to SuperCel in Townsend, TN next year.

Careful though... some may consider it unhealthy if you speed dial the number every hour only to find out it hasn't moved and your significant other hears this from across the house:
WHY ARE YOU STILL IN GARRETT, INDIANA YOU STUPID TRAIN?!?!

Have any of this thread's 2-door been shipped?

I'm trying to connect some dots and identify a common denominator between those that have gotten out of MAP and those that are still sitting around somewhere.

Sounds like a lot of the ones that have some transportation movement are of the 4-door flavor.

Mine hasn't

Edit: Also mine is truck transport, not train.
