Anyone have an idea when and where the train is likely to unload in Tampa?

I posted some thoughts on the Blue Unit's thread and don't like to duplicate on more than one thread.

We'll miss you.

Thanks for the schedule info.

The Worcester to Manchester schedule looks like a lot of time in between.  I'm guessing there's no interest in inserting a city in between the dates.
