Bill, I was able to
chase both 1965 and 1966 Circus Trains from Baraboo to Milwaukee. As near as
I can remember (and what my slides tell me) as follows:
7-2-1965 to
Baraboo via Madison on CNW
7-3-1965 Baraboo to Milwaukee with Circus
Train
6-25-1966 To Madison-layover
6-26,1966 To
Baraboo
6-27-1966 To Milwaukee with Circus Train
I believe the
4960 returned to Chicago directly from Milwaukee but on what date I do not
recall. I think the engine left for Chicago that same evening both on July
3,65 and June 27,66. I know for sure, that the Circus Train returned to
Baraboo via CNW with CNW power.
Both dates for the run to
Milwaukee (July 3,1965 and June 27,1966) are correct.
