I may have to get one of those circus locomotives, especially if there are going to be (as stated in the flyer) accompanying circus cars announced in Vol. 2.
Even though my focus is on the Alaska RR and U.S. Army Transportation Corps, every town and area needs a periodic visit by the Big Top.
A Circus engine is a great idea but I would of rather had a Pacific, Hudson or Berkskire.
I could see so many more possibilties with one of these steam enginess then the one they picked.
They're all over stock from the Disney deal that went sour .. label a bunch of them after presidents and the rest after a circus .. Presidents ?? Circus??? seems to fit current times

Interesting! I never though of that! It is PS3 though, so I just might bite. Will have to give it a bit of additional thought.

Jim, I agree. I have a Ringling Bros Circus Train, mostly Kline and Lionel Kline. And I run it with a Premier challenger, and many other Premier Steamers. I would prefer a premier steamer made as a circus engine with ringling bros on the tender. I would definitely bite.
Another uncataloged engine may be shipping and
that are the 2 4-6-0 engines from the MTHRRC.
My credit card was charged for them.
ptalar,
Thank you for agreeing with me. The way I would of done this, would of been to make two circus trains. One would pulled baggage cars, diners, and coaches. The other locomotive would of pulled a load of brightly painted flat cars with brightly painted circus wagons, animal cages, bulldozers and misc. equipment. Also, a few stock cars. Just like in the 1952 movie ''Greatest Show on Earth".
Darn shame the Disney deal didn't work out mike could have made some real nice Disney trains including tinplate.
I'm in for the BNSF, and NS Coalporter Hopper sets.
