Circus To Visit Lititz On Saturday Trains From Reading
The Ringing Bros and Barnum & Bailey circus will reach Lititz by Saturday after its Friday show at Reading. Four long trains loaded at Reading determine timing, likely midnight to dawn. A pusher engine may be needed to move each section from Sinking Spring to Lititz, with trains possibly following one another. If awake late, spectators might glimpse the passing trains along the tracks.
