Hi George.... I too had an LPof his, and of course loved the train stories the most. He used to perform at the Milwaukee Sports Show in the theater where they had the fishing line casting tricks, dog retriever shows, lumberjack log rolling competitions etc. IIRC, he used to perform in the summer at the Wisconsin Dells, a touristy town a little northwest of Madison and even closer to Baraboo which is where the Circus museum and Schlitz Circus train rail cars are stored. For you model railroaders out there Walthers produced a subscription set of these cars back in 1989, including Pacific 5629. I'll end here as I dont want to hijack the thread off topic.
