Anybody here any info about where the circus train will be heading this year? Just wondering if it is going to be split like last time or going to one location this year.

I would bet that the handoff from CSX to SRNJ will occurr sometime during the overnight. In the past few years, when I have been hoping to see CSX bring the train to Philadelphia, the train has run at dusk or after sunset on the Shared Assets Lehigh Line.

Back in 2004, the circus train came from Philadelphia to Atlantic City. Despite the rain, it was fun photographing the train.
