It's fun to have an episode of Around The Layout with a guy who's built a train that's gone around many layouts. John Rezuke has become known for his traveling HO scale Ringling Bros and Barnum & Bailey Circus train and he tells us all about how he chose this project and the massive amount of research he has put in to accurately pay tribute to a train that means so much to so many. John shares with us the relationships this project has developed, including friendships with past circus employees who look to his miniature version to relive the memories made going city to city spreading joy to children of all ages.
