About Me
- Bob Cline
- I performed from 1973 to 1995 with a couple years off in between. I did an aerial cradle act for three years, low wire as a clown, trained llamas, ponies, then lions and tigers for 15 years. I am now a firefighter, a member of the Circus Historical Society and an author of several circus and carnival related subjects.

Note the modern slide-outs, possum bellies and entrance awnings on these beautiful blue and white wagons. They were very impressive!
So then , these wagons are show owned, rather than individually owned ----- do the acts rent them , or are they just assigned to them , like Ringling's train rooms ? They look large , and good size for a family act ---- how about solo performers ( no family ) ??
I don't know whether the acts rent them. The workmen/solo performers had rooms in the sleeper wagons. I think that there were 3 rooms to a wagon. They had nice awnings over the door side of the sleepers. Lots of satalite dishes! There were also several large European RVs and a couple of hugh US fith wheel trailers on the lot.
