RBBB Circus Train Moves
Through
Information submitted by: C.
Burchett
Monday, April 28th saw the appearance
of the Ringling Brothers and Barnum & Bailey circus train on the West
Virginia Secondary. Upon leaving Hobson Yard after 10:00 a.m., the
train, 046, moved north to Columbus where the circus will be playing
next. The "Blue Unit," powered by C40-9 No. 8723 and C40-9W
No. 8922, consisted of fifty-seven cars [contributor's note: I failed to
count the cars during the "chase," so the car count is based on
other reports].
