The Ringling Brothers Barnum & Bailey Circus train made its way from Philadelphia to Atlantic City on April 26, 2004.  Half of the train was delivered to the Southern Railroad of New Jersey while the other half went to Tuckahoe.  The weather was cloudy all day, but as irony would have it, rain started to fall as the train approached Winslow Junction.  These photos, taken in the rain, are from Winslow Junction.
 
 
And the train continues to go by....
And the cars keep rollin'.....
Are we getting to close to the end??
Here come the flatcars....
And another one...
After the train cleared the crossing, a switch was thrown and the train was reversed.  Leading the train was CSX C30-7 7136.  A true delight for any railfan.
Seeing a C30-7 was a real treat that rainy day. 
Back and forth the train went as switches were aligned and cars were cut from the train.
Final photo of the 7136 as the train heads down to Tuckahoe.
Here is another photo of GP38-2 2559.
After the Tuckahoe section of the train had left, the SRNJ moved their engines into place.  Here is GP10 102.
SRNJ engines 3578 and 1801 also provided power for the train.
