Anyone here with comments on the move of 905 announced on Trains Newswire? Just curious.

Rather ironic that on the weekend that Rock Island 4-6-2 #905 is going to be moved some 350 or so feet, another important artifact of the Rock Island is also going to be on the move this coming Monday. The only known Rock Island "Centennial" boxcar is going to be moved to its new home in Topeka, Kansas, next to the restored Elmont, Kansas depot located there. The cars owner will be busy with the move itself, so I am not sure that there will be any photographers around to actually record the event.
