I know this is a shot in the dark, but anyone on here work with this show from the past? I remember seeing pictures of this show in an encyclopedia when I was a kid, I believe at a Midwest state fair. It had some cool pictures of the midway including a Roll o Plane, Wild West Show, Wheels, and others. I also did hear an old timer agent discussing the show years ago when I was traveling but being "unwise" back then I didn't pick his brain more about them.
Anyone have any good stories, history, rides, shows, or anything on them. I understand they were a big show one time.

I found a video on them on YouTube. Video quality is less than great but it’s dated from 1962. Type in Olson Shows once you’re in YouTube. Should pop right up. Looks like it was a train show, and appears the main color scheme was orange. Video shows the loading of the train, as well as the train passing by. Couldn’t really tell what rides / attractions they had. Hope that helps.
