UP Steam Engine 8444 begins its return trip to Omaha, Neb today
(Jan 23) from Baton Rouge, La after being on display at the World's
Fair in New Orleans.

It is scheduled to use MoPac rail to Kansas City, Mo,  then continue
on UP track to Omaha, Neb, scheduled to arrive Jan 31.       
 
Scheduled overnight stops are:
                     Longview, Tex
                     Houston, Tex
                     Fort Worth, Tex
                     Muskogee, Ok
                     Osawatomie, Kan
                     Kansas City, Mo
                     Topeka, Kan
                     Lincoln, Neb

Plans include full day public display in Houston and Fort Worth
and most of the day in Kansas City.  Only passengers will
probably be VIPs and NEWS media.

If I can get some exact dates I will pass them on.
 
Amateur Radio Station K0GHK is scheduled to operate from the
train.

PS. I'm a new Net member so I don't know if this is a repeat of
old info.
