Once I received email notification that truck was built I obtained Railcar Number from dealer in this format: ABCD123456 I checked CSX for railcar location after I confirmed truck was loaded onto auto rack yesterday and last location was / is Louisville, KY.
Thank you Grass Lake Ron for the following post, it work exactly as you stated:
"There are two major rail companies.
CSX is everything east of the mississippi UP is everything west of the mississippi
But they all start out on CSX so once they have it in their system they will follow it all the way.
So, how do you track your truck on a railcar?
First and most important. Never talk to live personnel at the railroad! Only use automated phone system. If it attempts to transfer you to a live person please hang up. The railcar information we are provided by is given as a courtesy and if we call live personnel we may lose the access and ability to track.
CSX 1. Call the CSX 1-800-235-2352 2. When prompted for location or weight, press "1" on your phone for location. 3. When prompted for the car initials, say CN (or whatever initials you have) then wait for the next prompt. 4. When prompted for the car number, say 907048 (or whatever your number is) 5. When prompted for next car say DONE. 6. That's it; enjoy your updated status report.
Union Pacific 1. Call UP at 1 800 877-5123 2. Follow phone prompts for Trace 3. Say the railcar number complete and clearly. Example CN123456 all together 4. Listen for your update
These automated systems can be frustrating. Keep in mind they are intended for use by folks that use them daily all day long. Like I said if you are being transferred to a live person please hang up and try again."
So, I guess the spreadsheet is DNF? Well poop!
I was about to announce that my truck ordered on 12/10/22 was built on 4/6/22 arrived 4/11/22. '22 F-350 SDSC, 8', Lariat, loaded. Conway Heaton FORD.
Just received my truck being built email 2 days ago, ordered Oct 27th , In production April 4th, many emails in between with push back notices. Now how to figure out how to get a railcar number so I can track the train. Woo Hoo, there is hope, pretty excited now, hopefully the long wait will be worth it!

You can get it from your dealer. Ask him to look it up in the VVR. There's a whole threads on here somewhere, maybe it's on BOF. By the time my truck said shipped on tracker last week, it was already at the dealer.. I'm in michigan.

You should probably start your own topic to find this out. Tacking it onto a totally unrelated thing is not going to help you at all.
