Here's a movie of the Ringling Bros. and Barnum and Bailey Circus train northbound through Jacksonville, Arkansas on Tuesday, August 24, 2010 at 11:56 a.m. The train was on its way from Texas to East St. Louis, Missouri. Lead locomotive was blue CSXT/Conrail 7331. The movie camera was on a tripod while I took still photos and shows the entire 59-car train. Excuse the car door in the first part of the movie since I had to scramble to set up.


CSXT/Conrail blue 7331 leading the circus train northbound, passing under the Main Street overpass in Jacksonville, Arkansas (about 10 miles north of Little Rock), Tuesday, August 24, 2010. Time of this photo was 11:56 a.m. The train had just had its 1,000th mile inspection at the UP yard in North Little Rock. It  had gotten to North Little Rock at 3:30 a.m. this morning and was split and parked near Jenks Shops until about 9 a.m., then put back together andrun north.
