The Hammond Circus Train Wreck killed an estimated 86 people in 1918 when an empty troop train crashed into the Hagenbeck-Wallace Circus train near Hammond, Indiana. CC & Kitty cover the stopped train, the fire, the victims buried at Showmen’s Rest, and why some records still don’t line up neatly.

CC & Kitty also talk through the circus’s earlier history, Carl Hagenbeck’s human zoo-style exhibitions, and the uncomfortable reality behind a show that kept going after tragedy.
