Hello JMB,
WF0DP3TH1H4124800
is there any way to track these once they leave the factory? Thanks!

I can track it as long as there's updates posted, but you can't until it gets on a railcar.

Hi JMB. Just checked the CSX automated response on the location of railcar ETTX854213. It says "empty, released by customer".
Could you please check the status of
VIN 1FA6P8JZ1H5524795
thanks.

Hi JMB. Thanks. Do you know what "In Transit - Delay-Conveyance Mechanical Failure " means? Also, are they no longer showing a rail car number?
Thanks. I'm sure you can tell that the wait is killing me :(

Usually , whether Ford, Chrysler, GM , etc. this could mean there was a problem with the rail transport. Have had this happen where an engine broke down , or upon inspection or during a fresh hook up when the transport switched in a yard, they found a concern with the carrier. You can imagine the delay , as well as the necessity to switch the railcar.

Hope that helps , but imagine this is the issue?

It's still on the same Rail Car as posted earlier. As Bill mentioned, it can be anything train/rail car related.
