Steam locomotive engineer as Disneyland has got you be one of the best jobs on the planet!

This would be a dream job, to do this every day!!!

This video made me smile big, both inside and out. Thank you so much for sharing this experience.

This is amazing!! I've longed wanted like many just to be able to go backstage to see the roundhouse. Thank you so much!!!!

Could do that all day, tinkering with old trains. Worked on the old electric cars we had here in the UK, so much more character than what replaced them, and more reliable too given abit of TLC.

My favorite locomotives are: #1 C.K.Holliday #2 E.P. Ripley #5 Ward Kimball

This is was cool. Wish there was a video like this that covered the monorail. I'd love to see some BTS of monorail operation and maintenance.

WHAT! C.K. HOLIDAY HAS LEFT DISNEYLAND! SHE IS ONE OF MY FAVORITE ENGINES!

I'd pay them to work there for a week!

I remember the good old times of the Disneyland Railroad

I had the chance to ride in the cab once when I was younger, best experience of my life. Also, it appears C.K. Holliday needs a bit of paint

“Whenever my life gets me so down, I know I can go down, to where the music and the fun never ends!” 🎵🎶

I can't wait for the CK Holliday to come back!!

This brings back memories.

If I were rich, would have one of these encircling my entire property and ride it everyday. Would have a sound system put in so I could play the Orange Blossom Special and Wabash Cannonball over the speakers too. Kid at heart here. Lol

So incredibly jealous. I've been to the shop at WDW on their "Magic Behind the Steam" tour but I'd sure love to do the same at Disneyland. Thanks for sharing!

When Rivers of America reopens, the train will be seen from Pirates Island formerly Tom Sawyers Island.

CK Holliday is out for refurbishment. So is the Lilly Belle steamer at the Walt Disney World Railroad.

Wow that was back when the E. P. Ripley was running historically that was Walt Disney's engine When he first come to the park he would personally drive the EP Ripley Which I thought is pretty cool

If you'd like more information about the tours go to www.wdwmagic.com/attractions/steam-trains.htm

It's interesting that i never noticed the disneyland locomotives ran on oil, First i thought they are coal burners but there oil burners, Very interesting!

(Couple years later) ahhhh C.K holiday back up in running

Sounds like the valve timing is off on the locomotive. Really noticeable when she is going slow.

Why not spice it up a bit with different whistles? 1) C.K. Holliday should have Sierra Railway #3's Lima 5 Chime whistle 2) E.P. Ripley should have Baltimore & Ohio 6 Chime whistle 3) Ward Kimball should have ATSF 3751's whistle 4) Fred Gurley should have Shay #4's whistle 5) Ernest Marsh should have SP 4449's new whistle.

This is Awesome! :-D

As someone who polished brass in DCA, 3rd shift custodial, I freaked out seeing him polishing the brass without rubber gloves on.

Great video on the train

I like all the engines for the disneyland railroad my most favorite one is 1 and 2

Very nicely filmed. A little narration here and there would be nice.

Enjoyed that very much! I imagine they keep the boiler going all night unless there's some work that needs to be done on it?

how did you get in there? i am probably the biggest disneyland railroad fan in YT and this is incredible. was this before C.K. left?

I like all the answers from the Disneyland real but my most favorite one is the 1 and 2

The CK holiday engine 1 is my favorite and also engine 2 the EP

I know Walt Disney personally owned the railroad when he was alive. I wonder if his family still owns it, or did it go to the corporation?

its a bit strage seeing these engines move with out the passenger coaches behind them

I like how the firebox is used to illuminate the speedometer.

Should make this the main way of getting around

They sure work hard

What's the status on the EP Ripley's rebuild?

Yas

Is Casey Junior from Dumbo (1941) like C. K. Holliday, E. P. Ripley, Fred Gurley, Ernest S. Marsh, or Ward Kimball?

What in blazes is clanking under throttle?

I know how to make the train whistle sound and make the bell sound

How can I apply?

what's up I'm The Train Master

the boxcars?

How many cars do tha trians pull?

What guage is this?? 3 foot??

the ck will be missed

Improvised fire hose.

Dude hickok45 works at Disneyland

Aren’t holiday and ripely 4-4-0 American locomotives

I wonder if the locomotive is real because it looks real but it also feels fake.
