Viewing Album:  Circus Train Rolls Through the Mills
 
By:Gary Everhart
Dates:10/31/2011 - 10/31/2011
Album Info:While on a walkway over the NS/IHB/EJE tracks in the middle of Inland Steel plant (now ArcelorMittal), a surprise train rolled through - the Ringling Brothers, Barnum and Bailey Circus train. Over 80 cars rolled past my vantage point on their way to Chicago for a November 3-13th stint at the Allstate Arena and then on to the United Center for November 16-27th.
