The Long Island Rail Road was piggybacking wagons in the 1860's. Norm ----- Forwarded Message -----

Barnum pioneering what became piggyback loading. The German High Command learning from the circus how to move troops and support staff while the Barnum show was in Europe 1898-1902. The circus building their own cars to the longest length possible since the railroads charged the circus per car not by weight. The roust-abouts riding on the flats with the wagons. It was cooler and more comfortable than the dorm cars where they sometimes were 4 to a berth. After the last bigtop dropped the circus became a wagon (truck) show again until sometime in the late 60's early 70's when it returned to the rails still with their own rolling stock with the reporting mark of RBBX..
