Thanks Rich,

I think I will try to go down to Ewing & Papin to get some great shots of it 
today. My schedule tomorrow may make it more difficult at Kirkwood, plus the 
crowds might make it harder to get a good shot.

The last time I saw this engine was when it was steaming thru Spring, TX just 
south of Houston.  I was able to see it at that location on two different trips.

  For those following the UP 3985 steam train thru STL, here's two good links 
to follow it's location (tracked with GPS on map) and schedule:

  It is  due to leave downtown at 9AM Saturday and will go through Kirkwood 
(past the train station) and due in Pacific at 10AM and continues from there to 
Sedalia at 3PM

  It will also be on display Friday from 8AM to 6PM down at S. Ewing and Papin 
(near Choteau).
