This PTC carousel in St. Paul, MN received the NCA Historical Carousel Award in 2006.

PTC #33 has survived a fire (some of the figures still show charring as a reminder). It also came within a few hours of being auctioned off. Many of The saddles are covered with velvet.

The carousel has a very unique appearance because all of its horses are painted in shades of grey and white.
