Because circus trains are a popular OC choice in this fandom, here’s a page with a crapton of photos and info on the Ringling Bros ones. The Blue Unit one from 2012 is a standout because it has rare interior pics and a ton of interviews and info.

They have a lot of very interesting specialized cars with a ton of potential that people may not know about (and most of them had previous lives as something else like a baggage car, and after the circus got repurposed by tourist railroads). Super fascinating to see private and sleeper cars that aren’t luxurious and more like mobile homes on rails meant for long-term stays.

#reference #stex #starlight express #not directly related to the show but imo a great reference for OCs #i worked at a museum that had a lot of ex-circus cars and there’s a lot of unique ones #also can confirm that the info on the report is legit. checks out with what the ex-circus guys at the museum have said about the cars
