I just want to know why (if so) no one seems to be modeling them. Even I had costructed a NYC M497 Jet Car in HO. Mike Re: Check out this video! - Charlie B - 02-24-2009 Mike, probably the reason no one is modeling Ringling Bros is because Ringling would not allow any cars to be done commercially or anything else so I understand, so everything would have to be scratched or kitbashed. I was looking for some cars the other night and when I couldn't find any I found this information on another forum so be advised, it is not from a published site and not from "Big Blue" IHC made some Strates cars and a train set, but no Ringling Bros. Lionel has just added a K line O27 Ringling Brothers set, and it must be licenced by Ringling as the set is Trademarked, and seems extremely expensive It would be neat to run a "circus extra" every now and again. About 20 years ago while watching trains from the bridge behind my house I saw a one in a billion. The eastbound Strates train met the westbound Ringling bros. train, right under me, and my camera was in the house. I had this stupid idea I was just going to enjoy an evening of trainwatching, and never got the word that a circus train was en-route like I usually did. Oh well, it is a great memory.
