Airplane on railroad flatcar

Hello all,
I am a model railroader and would like to model a WWII era fighter on a 1/87 flatcar. I model 1953 and this would make me eligible for a Korian War candidate also. Would an aircraft have ever travelled by rail in the US? Perhaps to a dispay or a museum? I realize that the wings would have to be removed and sucured. The landing gear would have to fit on the flatcar deck which is 9'6" wide and 52" long. I would be willing to use a 1/100 model, it would only be 13% too small. There is a nice P-38 and a P-51 in 1/87 that I could use but the P-38 gear would be way too wide though. I would appreciate any help.
