On Saturday night, April 28, 2012, Amtrak's Texas Eagle #22 arrived in Little Rock with 2 private cars on the rear, "Evelyn Henry" and "Warren Henry." These two cars were going to Chicago and eventually to the Kentucky Derby. Here are some photos and a link to a movie of the train leaving at 11:39 p.m., on time to the minute.
