RED UNIT -- 58 CARS -- (137th Edition: http://ringling.com/explore/137/ ):

January 15 - Orlando to Jacksonville FL. (NOTE that only 57 cars are currently on the train; another flatcar is to be added soon, sent to them out on the 'road. "Stay tuned...")

BLUE UNIT - 60 cars -- (136th Edition: http://ringling.com/explore/136/ ):

January 16 - Miami FL to Columbia SC. (Route north of JAX unknown: could be either CSXT or NS from there to Columbia SC. But if they're on CSXT, look for them through Folkston GA late that day!)
_________________________________________________________________________

Each RBBB railroad show takes each Edition on a 2-YEAR TOUR. This began in 1969, with the Red Unit's "99th Edition" just after the Feld Family came into control of the show, having purchased it from the Ringling-North Family in 1968. Current RBBB Edition Numbers for the two railroad shows are measured from the show's first year, 1871.

DISCLAIMER: all train-run ["jump"]-dates presume each train departs the morning [or day] after the closing preforming date -- ALL Circus Train-runs can change timing and/or routing WITHOUT NOTICE, even after they have departed their initial terminal, due to the nature of railroading in general.

Not knowing for sure, and if last year is any indication, we suspect they'll take FEC all the way north to Jacksonville, then interchange to either NS or CSXT. If they go CSXT out of JAX (--and that's an "IF" until someone in that region confirms it--), look for them rolling through Folkston GA late in the evening - hopefully (!) before midnight, Tuesday night.
