This is simply unbelievable. An amazing rendition of a classic American icon. The train cars are incredible, but the actual circus is just amazing. Using the sails to make the big top was a great idea. My favorite part by far has to be the cannon. Nothing like making minifigs fly!

Excellent job and great pictures!

Thanks for the comments. The sails were one of the parts that I had to order from outside of the U.S. Apparently people in the States are reluctant to part out their pirate ships.

The cannon is fun. I built it early on, and almost left it out of the train, but it was too cool to lose. I ended up building a third set of bleachers instead so that I would have an excuse for adding another flatcar.
