This baggage car is the last surviving one of its type from the Arthur T. Brown Great American Circus, a failed circus that unfortunately never made it off the ground, or rails. The car sits on a siding outside of Parish, NY.
A total of seven various types of cars were purchased from a Syracuse scrap dealer with the plan of creating a rolling circus. However, ill-health and age conspired to keep the train permanently sidelined, and after the owner died in 1998, most of the cars were donated. This is the last survivor on the railroad.
