RINGLING BROTHERS AND BARNUM & BAILEY
CIRCUS TRAIN.
Macon,
Ga; January 1999.
Pensacola, Fl; June 2001: Train,
Animal
and Power cars, Performer
cars and Trailers.
After close to 9 hours of driving around, including a 3 AM departure
from home, I finally hit the jackpot. In the Nokomis siding, P932 meets
S579 with U237 waiting at the north end. From Mobile to Pensacola, the
train had a meet at every siding. The train was close to 5000' long, about
2/3 of that length are performer cars power cars and animal cars. The rest
of it are trailers with the equipment.
KCS SD40-2s 631 and 625 in SD45 shells in their gray and red are
a natural to lead the train.
