Hemisphere Circus Wagon

All Scale Miniatures is proud to introduce the first in a series of circus wagons.  The first Circus Wagon offered is based on what most call “the greatest bandwagon ever made” and ”the finest and biggest circus bandwagon ever built “. 

This incredible piece of American history was originally built in 1903 weighing in at over 6 tons and nearly 30 feet long.  Elaborately adorned with lions, bears, elephants and eagles this wagon features the two half globes that are prominent on the sides that depict the Earth’s eastern and western hemispheres. Originally this wagon was pulled by 40 horses (4 horses wide by 10 horses long)  in the circus parade and the wagon was moved from town to town on a railcar.  

The Hemisphere Circus Wagon will add a bit of whimsical fun to your circus layout. The Barnum & Bailey Two Hemispheres Bandwagon is now available for pre-order in HO Scale.  This kit comes UNPAINTED but a limited few are being offered painted.  Our kits are very easy to assemble using CA glue (aka Super Glue) as they have alignment points and flat surfaces for gluing.  Some light sanding may also be required for a perfect fit.

The kit includes 22 parts: 1 Hemisphere Wagon (back, front and two sides all as one box, 1 set of seats, 2 front wheels, 2 rear wheels, 1 front axle, 1 rear axle and 14 signs with flag poles (not shown in photos).
