I'm going to try especially hard to get some pictures of the Delta Queen this year, seeing as how her future is somewhat uncertain.

I live on the Cumberland River, near Cheatham Lock, about six hours west of Nashville (DQ time). By my calculations, she usually passes here in the very early monring hours, even though I've yet to catch her. Based on the schedule posted at MAL, she's making a LOT of Nashville trips this year, the earliest of which will put her in Nashville on May 20th.

MAL's schedule doesn't give particulars. Is there ANY way I can find out when she might be passing through my area?? The scheduled Nashville arrival and departure dates and times would work well. Where can I find those?

I've also heard that the DQ sometimes arrives in Nashville a day or two ahead of the posted schedule. What's the deal with that?

Any help would be appreciated!
