[CBQ] 4960 and a circus train

["'Rupert & Maureen' gamlenz@ihug.co.nz [CBQ]" <CBQ@yahoogroups.com>]

Combining two recent topics, I’ve just purchased a DVD entitled “American Steam – Steam in the 50’s and 60’s” from Payless Entertainment Ltd.

It includes a segment showing 4960 in the early 1960’s (no actual date specified) taking a circus train to Milwaukee, across the Narrow Neck Bridge.  It was apparently the first steam train in Wisconsin in more than 10 years.  The train belonged to Circus World Museum Train, although individual cars seemed to bear a variety of names including Gollmar Bros. Behind 4960 was C&S tender 99518, 12 flat cars, 3 coaches and possibly a horse car. The scenes were from the collection of Tom A Strid.
