Hard to believe that in 1950 they would make 8 12 and 15 mile jumps with a railroad show
Ringling Bros. made jumps from Albany,NY to Schenectady,NY - 10 miles in the 60's. Bill Galloway,Rochester,NY
Correction, RBB&B moves in 50's not 60's. Bill Galloway,Rochester,NY
Ringling used to play two different lots in Detroit, packed everything up and loaded it on the train. I don't have one of those route cards in front of me, but was thinking it was only 5 miles or so.
This edition was out from 1945 to 1956 with Clyde Beatty and Associates, proprietors.Prior to this show there was Clyde Beatty's Jungle Zoo & Circus - 1941 - 1942, Clyde Beatty, proprietor.
