And I wouldn’t make an appearance for another 4 years. Could you imagine running steam on a summer day in s suit and tie? Yes, thankfully, styles have changed.
Ah, those were the days! 
Walt Disney’s Railroad Story by Michael Broggie is a great read and answers many questions as to why so many of us growing up in the 1950’s has this infatuation with model railroads.
I THOUGHT someone was to blame!
Very cool video. Waaaaaay before my time!!! Mrs. Diesel loves Disney!

How about this picture. Walt with a cigarette in his left hand and a sheepish grin after derailing Lilly Belle in his front driveway in Holmby Hills. Maybe one to many highballs before running.
1948… I was 33 years into the future!
