Too bad it has to be fenced off, but you're lucky to have seen one.  Months
ago I missed (by hours) seeing
a running one come through town on a tour.  The rail line it was on passes
50 feet from my mother's retirement
apartment, and I could have experienced it with her.  She loves watching
trains, but we didn't know about it until too late.
