I will keep you informed as the date gets closer. I am a
subcontractor for UP and they will keep me advised as they
enter UP trackage. After it passes thru Rosenburg about 2
Miles it enters CPKC trackage. About 15-20 years ago KCS
bought the Victoria sub from SP (UP). The track went to
Wharton but had been removed completely Bare grass, from
Wharton to Victoria. KCS re-laid the track and now runs
that line. Robert

I have seen the KC on UP tracks in Houston, on the
bridge over I 45, I think they have trackage rights
to complete their system. This is quite a trip they
have taken. I remember chasing The Royal Hudson
through the mountains from los Angeles. I remember
the engineer saying at a stop that we were doing a
good job of keeping up but their orders on the flat
land was 75 and this was in the days of 55mph. It was
now 5:00 AM and I had worked all night so I went home.
There should be a lot of good chasing on 59 down south.

Just note, it has no official stops in Houston as CPKC
has no customers or track in Houston. Shreveport Is
the nearest CPKC track to the east & Rosenburg to the
west. They use trackage rights to pass thru Houston. I
did note they use the passenger main thru downtown so
they will go thru the Amtrak Depot. They may spend the
night here but there will not be any train show here.
They will have to make stops for water, which they
select as per the water quality as well as access,
maybe the depot. When UP 844 past thru, they filled up
at the Bellaire Blvd. crossing using Bellaire water.
