Mt. Vernon Flatcar # 64

The Circus World Museum was fortunate enough to have two of the Mt. Vernon Flatcars donated by the Bill Hames Carnival. They are on the grounds and used for the loading and unloading demonstration. The Jos. Schlitz Brewing Co. bought 5 others from the World of Mirth Carnival after they folded in North Carolina. One other one (# 51 ) looks very much like a Mt. Vernon also. Unless there is one of these in a Railroad Museum somewhere, these are the only Mt. Vernon flatcars left in existance and they are all at the Circus World Museum in

Baraboo, Wisconsin.
