Does any one happen to know if any of these engines will be in the Nebraska area?

3985 is scheduled to go to the Republican convention in the Twin Cities roughly the first of September, so it will be on the Overland Route through Nebraska this year.  Last time I looked, no detail schedule had as yet been published, so I don't know if it will get there or back on the old RI "Spine Line" or the C&NW's Sioux City subdivision.

6936 has been leading an office train inspecting a whole lot of the UP routes for quite awhile this spring.  I believe it is scheduled to move from St. Paul to Council Bluffs on the Sioux City sub on Friday, April 18th, but I don't have times.  I'm not sure where or when it will move after that.
