  Hey Chris,
 
 Nope, unfortunately all I have is that one unconfirmed rumor of 
Laredo-Kendleton on June 17th.  I posted the question hoping someone else could 
confirm and/or provide more information.

Hi ravi, do you have a complete schedule of when it might be where along the 
path? I have friends scattered along the path as far north as Chicago and even 
into canada and would love to give them an educated guess scheduling time.

  I'm hearing a rumor that the 2816 will be coming back through Houston on her 
way home, with the Laredo-to-Kendleton leg occurring on June 17th.  I would 
assume the Houston pass-through would occur the following day.  Can anyone 
confirm this?
 
 Also, I am sad to report that the 2816 was involved in a tragedy yesterday.  A 
lady was trying to get a selfie with the train as it passed through Hidalgo, 
Mexico.  She was struck by the locomotive and killed instantly.  Prayers for 
her family.
 
 Stay SAFE, brothers and sisters.

pretty good view of the track.

I hope to have an update in the AM. Last notice I got was it leaves Shreveport 
at noon tomorrow, arrive Kendleton sat evening. Spend all Sunday there and 
leave to Victoria 8 am. The route shows it going thru the Amtrak Depot, witch 
should be late in the afternoon Sat. Robert KD5YVQ

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. Robert
