Hello Chic,

I sent 18 photos of the C-B blow down on May 11th and 12th of 2007 and you can go back and look at them by clicking "May 2007" in the left column and scrolling down the month.

Some said the lettering on the trucks, plus the type of seat trucks did not match what was used when the Auburn N.Y, blow down happen in 1968. This was during the day and Auburn was at night, etc.

Jimmy Cole had said 1964.

You may have more first hand knowledge of some of the equipment.

p.j.

I'm pretty sure Auburn was EARLY 70s

& not late 70s as I mentioned before

I went up to Auburn to help restore

I don't think it was the 60s

Google- Auburn New York July 9 1968 circus


Couple of first hand accounts and also a CHS link from the message board regarding the blow down.

Again, had sent 18 photos back in May 2007 that you can go back and look at.
