Good luck catching her, I have a feeling UP 1996 will be travaling slowly across Iowa. If you get any photos of her please post them on here! :)

Good Luck! :)

Darn, I was hopping you would catch her :( I'm sorry to hear that, maybe you'll catch her on the return trip! :)

Good to hear you saw 8701 this afternoon!
