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. Robert
