Do they all go to Chicago Heights? I live about 5 minutes from the West Chicago rail head that vehicles get unloaded at. I never really paid attention to what vehicle makes other than Teslas.
From what I understand. Ford uses the Chicago heights yard to offload and on load

Railyard delays have been ongoing all year, and are usually related to trucking availability. This same thing happened to me back in March 2022. Dealership sales rep gave me a call each week to update on the railyard/trucking delays.

Exactly. But like I said, I called United Road and they said they cannot deliver the car because Ford put a hold on it. Makes no sense
Of course they would say that.
Passing the blame is the way now.

My Big Bend got to the rail yard in Kansas City last Monday (10/17), arrived in Lincoln at my dealership on Saturday (10/22) and I'll hopefully be taking ownership of it this afternoon. Seemed like a standard wait time to me.

It looks like Ford is now holding back deliveries from dealers at the rail yards. I know of at least four in the Chicago Heights yard and now one was mentioned on hold in the Memphis yard. Already called Ford and they had no clue as to why it’s being held back. Anyone else having their Bronco held at the yard and anyone heard why?
Could be due to rail workers possible strike

I understand the driver shortage, but Ford is physically preventing these Bronco sports from being shipped from the rail yard even if they have truck drivers for them.
That's what I think also because there are 2 F-150's pending pick up at United Road for my
dealership so why does my Bronco Sport say on hold and not pending pick up????

They have to wait for a full truckload to local dealers and then wait for a truck and driver to be available. There's a National shortage of drivers. It's been that way for some time. Mine sat for well over a week two years ago.

Ford chat says mine is currently in Kansas City MO. At least it’s not in Nogales anymore.

How does one obtain access to this site? is it a simple registration request?
Can anyone obtain access to this site? Simply Just register?

I found out mine is at the (Buffalo,NY) rail yard as of today 10/26. It's 11 miles from my dealership. Estimated delivery to the dealer is 11/14. I guess I will follow the thread notion that it's the hauler availability to be scheduled for transportation?

Mine sat in Buffalo for a little over a week in 2021 before the one day trip it took to Syracuse waiting for a full truckload and a driver.

So does anyone have an idea where this is? (At least it's in IL now) per Ford Chat:
Your car is at "Junction Point in Gateway Yard, IL".
