Bachmann Trains Create Ringling Brothers and Barnum & Bailey



Circus Model Train Toy


Jan - 21 2012 Kerin Peel


Bachmans Trains are making model versions of the Ringling Brothers and Barnum and Bailey Circus trains.
I think adults as well as children will enjoy the Bachman’s G-Scale and HO Scale trains. These train sets bring back the excitement and wonderment of yesteryear. Back in in the days before television, circuses were a big form of entertainment. There were circuses that would come to small towns where there wasn’t many other kinds of entertainment.
Here is the official press release:
