From WED Disneyland Dictionary 1968
Is a colorful, gay circus train that puffs up hill and down for a view of Storybook Land. Casey thinks he can and he does make a happy journey with guests in colorful circus gondolas.

From Steve Birnbaum brings you the best of Disneyland 1982:
One of the key sequences in Walt Disney's 1941 film Dumbo, in which the engine named Casey pulls a circus train up a steep hill, is the inspiration for this attraction a train trip that circles Storybook Land. The fact is, the Canal Boats are better for viewing the landscaping and the details there, but it's hard to resist the charm of a ride inside one of those wild animal cage cars the kind that always show up in circus films. Each train has two of them-plus a real caboose. Children seem to love this ride.

Track was replaced in 1989
