Dates:7/10/1990 - 7/2/1999
Album Info:Until the aging rolling stock lost its FRA certification after 2003, the Baraboo-based Circus World Museum's show traveled to Milwaukee's Great Circus Parade by rail. The trains were pulled by everything from C&NW SD40-2s to WSOR's red and gray E9s. Even steam locomotives such as 1385 and Soo Line 1003 fronted the train some years, unfortunately my family missed those.

Per info from Rick King via Facebook: "The guy in the red shirt is Tim Perkins, Superintendent of Buildings and grounds at CWM and Asst. Wagon Shop superintendent. The guy in the white shirt (on the caboose) is CNW man Norm Anderson, carman from Janesville."
