On the evening of July 20, 2016, the Ringling Brothers and Barnum & Bailey Blue Unit circus train moved from Ontario to Anaheim, California.
1. The circus train passes the wigwag at Santa Ana and Lemon Streets in Anaheim. A UP Yard Job follows closely behind the circus train, to assist with switching out the train when it reaches its destination.
2. From earlier in the trip, the circus train crosses Los Nietos Road in Santa Fe Springs.

It's like the scene in Dumbo at night when the circus train pulls into the railyard, with a wigwag operating.

This is great! Fantastic location, and nice job with the filming.

Thank you!

As of 2019 the wig wag still stands.

@TheBCRailfan 5 лет назад

Nope. It got replaced by Gateless Railway Crossing Signals in February 2019.

@janettemcclelland2959 4 года назад

Not anymore.

Sadly it's now gone as of February 2019. Lost my chance to get in action.

@SantaFe126 5 лет назад

Yeah, I heard that it was removed -- 'tis a shame.

Cool bells at 7:22!

@railfanbryan7225 6 лет назад

How many trains pass through there each day?

@SantaFe126 6 лет назад

As far as I know, the only regular moves past here are a couple of UP locals. I think that there are a few moves per week.

@@SantaFe126 I live in Bakersfield about 2.5 hours north of Anaheim. If I ever go there I would love to railfan that crossing, even if I dont see a train. I also wonder if there are any active wig wags anywhere around Bakersfield?

@SantaFe126 6 лет назад

I don't think there are any wigwags left in Bakersfield. But there is one in Hanford, and a few in Fresno (all of those are on the San Joaquin Valley Railroad). For more details, check out "Dan's Wigwag Site" (should be easy to find through Google).

Sadly no theres not ant wig wags in Bakersfield that I am aware of. But there is an old gated off and closed off crossing that has an old rusty crossbuck that apparently BNSF or the city forgot to remove, which makes for a cool railfanning spot, which I occasionally visit. Its on K Street north of California Ave, on the northbound side. I've got some videos from there on my channel. There are a few other crossbuck only crossings that are still in service, but no wig wags here.
