Circus Train (RWS)

The Circus Train is colourful rolling stock which is used by the circus when it comes to Sodor. The train has special livestock trucks used to transport horses and trucks, flatbeds and vans which are used to transport circus goods and equipment. Coaches and brake vans are used to carry the circus performers.
