Circus Train on Soldier Summit
Author: GrandeGold

I 'joined' the Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey Circus train for a day and loved it. I followed it east along the former D&RGW on its journey from Salt Lake City to Denver.

The train is pictured as it snakes through Spanish Fork Canyon just outside the Red Narrows. The SSCDV 27 was of the more impressive trains I've followed and photographed.

If I told my parents I'd joined the circus, they'd roll their eyes and ask about the retirement plan 😜

 As usual James, you manage to catch a freshly repainted unit ( 2, in this shot ) , or a very clean one.
