That's cool and what I figured. Thank you. I will hopefully get that info this week and check back. I'm definitely west of the Mighty Miss!

I have a good friend that was a conductor for BNSF. He told some pretty good stories and confirmed the "deer in the headlights" stories from the tracks. Cattle too. Quite a job!

What part of New Mexico are you located in? I know that railcars carrying new Ford vehicles destined to NM are unloaded near Albuquerque and are transported by the BNSF railroad and I'm not able to track it.

TrikeDawg, Sorry I've been late in getting this posted, but here's the promised pic of my new F450 that YOU helped me track all the way from KTP.

Thanks again.

You're very much welcome. You have a very nice looking truck there and I wish you many happy safe miles out of it. Stay in touch and stay safe.

I have a rail car number I have tried a few angles to track, without any success and I don't want to pester my dealer too much.... My truck is supposed to be on TTGX691543, my new Platinum 350 SRW Diesel is on that car headed for the great white north.

What is the destination location of the great white north? I can only track railcars on the UP railroad.

Sorry I didn't specify, my truck is headed for Saskatoon Saskatchewan, Via CN Rail on the Canadian side of the border but was last week shipped from Louisville, KY to I'm guessing the Chicago mixing center? It'll be coming somehow up the west side of Lake Michigan I'd guess? If you can spot it I'd appreciate it!!

Double check that railcar number, it does not show to be a good number.
