|---|---|---|---|

## Notes

- Consignment numbers are 7-8 digits or 1-3 letters followed by digits, shapes other freight carriers share, so pass `?carrier=followmont`.
- The trace lists each scan once per item barcode; scans with the same minute, status and place are merged.
- **Time zone**: depots span several states and the scans carry no zone, so only `localTime` is set and `timestamp` and `deliveredAt` are `null`. Sender and receiver names, addresses and handling notes are not returned.
