Description One of two of Ward's engines under the OERM's care, the Chloe is a former sugar cane locomotive, previously relegated to Ward's smaller engines that he would run without the neighbors' permission, connected to an open park coach situated behind her. The guy in red goose-stepping in the background is Griffin Doherty, the worst Daniel Radcliffe impersonator ever.

Bah, it's Chloe! If ever there was a perfectly size steam locomotive for the home, she is it. I love her proportions, her dressings, and her colors. Ward did well on her, and she still looks just as good in the GF carbarn as she did in the Orange grove.

If you like the Chloe, you'll like fellow Disney animator Ollie Johnston's Marie E: www.mikemassee.com/gallery/d/1…

 love Ollie's Marie E. Ollie and Ward are both amazing people. (Not in the least because they both had backyard full size railroads, restored steam locomotive.....and Ollie was the original animator for a particular Cocker Spaniel.) The Marie E actually traveled to Disney Land and ran on the DL&SF RR for a special event a few years back.

Wish I'd have been there, though when I did go last time, I had the pleasure of riding behind the "Ward Kimball" to Frontierland, which is a beautiful Forney in itself.
