I had the please of taking a tour of the Walt Disney World Railroad's facilities before the park opened. Disney offers this tour at the cost of $45; and boy was it worth it! |

WDWRR 3 |
| Description: |
#3 was built in 1925 by the Baldwin Locomotives Works out of Philadelphia, PA. She was built for a narrow gauge railroad (3-foot) in the Yucatan (Mexico), where they hauled I believe sugar cane. The engine's number there was #275. She is a 4-6-0 'Ten-Wheeler' type locomotive. |

When they fire up the engine, it usually lets out a lot of smoke, so I got a picture! |

WDWRR 4 |
| Description: |
This is #4. I'm not sure of the build year or date, but it was built by Baldwin. One interesting fact about this locomotive, is that it was purchased for $750! Talk about a bargin. Though the engine was in awful shape... you wouldn't be able to tell now. #4 is a classic 4-4-0 'American' type locomotive... and really fits the old-time look that Walt Disney was trying to portray. |

#3 come sailing around the bend just on the otherside of the Toontown station. The engine's boiler isn't original... it was modified to make it look more 1850s-ish. The diamond stack was also added. Could easily fool you, couldn't it? |

Between Toontown and Main Street, there is a 2% grade, and the 4-4-0 sounded great charging up the hill. |
