Finally we’ve made it to the park, well almost we’re just passing under Main Street Station and it’s time for another question.

This question's in 2 parts.

1)The DLRP Railroad has 4 locomotives, one of them is an almost identical copy of Walt’s original locomotive design for Disneyland, making it the only locomotive to appear twice on the Disneyland roster, but which one is it ?

2)The original locomotive was built in the Disney Studios workshops, but where was the replica built and by whom?


This day in Disney History
1977 - Orlando Bloom - known for his role of Will Turner in the Pirates of The Carribean films is born in Kent.

The answers as most of you told me were:
The CK Holliday which incidently was modelled on Walt's own miniature backyard steam engine the "Lilly Belle".
It was named after Cyrus Kurtz Holliday (1826 – 1900)

The Disneyland Paris locomotive was built here in

Wales

by Hugh Phillips at the Ffestiniog Railway.
