At 00:58:50.58 UT on 2010-Jan-08 (MJD 55204), Swift/BAT triggered on a rapid outburst from XTE J1901+014. The trigger was a 128-second image trigger and detectable emission lasted from T-150 sec to at least T+250 sec, when the spacecraft moved away from the field due to a pre-planned slew. The time-averaged spectrum from T-137.5 to T+263.9 sec is best fit by a simple power-law model. The photon power law index of the time-averaged spectrum is 5.22 +- 0.51.
