See the circus train go by?

Question

I know the circus is coming to town by rail, and the tracks go right through our town. How can we find out when it will be travelling, so that we can go out and wave? Our kids would love it. Thanks!

Answer 1

Ringling Brothers actually operate two Circus Trains, the "red" train and the "blue" train, so named for the colors they sport.

Most small town newspapers pick up on the movements and will put an article in the local paper.  They are very special to young and old alike, and fun to work.

They stop to rest and water the animals, usually at a crew change point.  Find out where that will take place and you'll have much more time to see the train and its population. Travel a bit, if you must.  Make a day of it, if possible.  Your kids (and you) will always remember the event.

Answer 4

This is a very big world, and it has a lot of traveling circuses, some of which use railroads.  You neglected to say where in the big world you are, so how do you expect to get an answer?
