I've gotten your emails. I know many of you want to know when the animals from the Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey Circus will be arriving in Raleigh.

Here's the official word right now: 6:30 p.m., Monday. Please note that these times can change!

The actual arrival time is a moving target and not set in stone, but 6:30 p.m., Monday is the plan right now. The animals will be unloaded from a 53-car-long steel coach on Hillsborough Street across from Dorton Arena on the N.C. State Fairgrounds around 6 p.m.. The best place to see the animal walk is along the road adjacent to the back loading dock of the RBC Center. They will get there around 6:30 p.m.

"Fully Charged" will be at the RBC Center from Wednesday to Sunday with multiple shows. Click here for details and tickets. And here's more information on a Go Ask Mom ticket discount.

Train was pulling in about 3:35 as I drove along Hillsborough Street. Stock (Animal) cars were in the usual spot opposite the fairgrounds.

Is there a place to find out if the train is still on schedule?
