Governor Beebe was aboard the engine I think. Fox 16 reported that he was aboard between Bald Knob to North Little Rock in the front of the train.
I thought I recognized him as it passed and had trouble setting up the camera to catch this thing moving very fast. It's the best one.
I believe it was the only time UP 844 wore Flag of Arkansas and USA denoting a Government Official aboard during the Little Rock Express Tour.
