Thanks for the detailed info - do you know if this train will have elephants?

Hope this will answer questions.
As stated/reported in other Posts on TO.COM over the past few months - Elephants are gone from the Red Unit Circus Train.  They are being trucked to Florida as of this Post out of Wilkes- Barre PA..

BUCT - Providence RI - Elephants are on their way (via train) south to Florida (today) as the BUCT goes for its new show rehearsal.
News-paper articles were numerous on the Elephant removal(s) from the two Circus Train Units over the weekend.
Stay in touch at TO.COM for the new adventures of the two circus trains.

Ok thanks for that correction re: the elephants. Given Hoosac Tunnel isn't cleared for domestic doublestacks, there probably won't be a giraffe car either...  ;-)

Giraffe Car - you will have to buy a Lionel Giraffe Car for your desk or shelf display.
Have a great day. bcd9   ∑:=) 

Here's who's on THIS train... except without the elephants, who are already heading south to Florida.  Everyone always asks how many people are on the show, well HERE THEY ARE!  (Courtesy RBBB Circus/Feld Entertainment)
