I know this may be a far feched idea but has anyone considered reskining cars to make a compleate RB&BB Circus trains? I think it would be a well worth addition to the MSTS rolling stock. What do you guys think?

This was the advance publicity car which ran on its own ahead of the main circus train.

Barnum had 67 vehicles built in the UK to American design for his European show.

I've got the drawings - I just don't have the time.

Would be Perfect to have either the Ringling one or James E Strait shows

Me being of the younger generation would more like to see the modern one than the old one. The red or blue unit,(I think Red) just came through my area a few weeks ago. Even though, I think you have a great idea and good luck!

Maybe if Gaetan Belanger or Marc Nelson had this info, maybe we could see a payware version somewhere down the road!
