Grizzly Flats Set Aussichtswagen (Sightseeing car)
Description: Aussichtswagen des LGB 29130 Grizzly Flats Set.
Set war eine Sammler-Edition.
Ward Kimball war seit Anbeginn der Disney Studios einer der wichtigsten Zeichner in Walt Disneys Team. Viele berühmte Figuren aus Filmen wie Schneewittchen, Pinocchio, Dumbo etc. stammen aus seiner Feder. Was ihn jedoch mit Disney besonders verband, war die gemeinsame Eisenbahnbegeisterung. Eines Tages bekam Ward Kimball von Walt Disney den Auftrag, für den Film “Ein Champion zum Verliebenâ€, einen kleinen romantischen Bahnhof zu bauen. “Grizzly Flats Station†war geboren. Nach den Dreharbeiten verschwand der Bahnhof zunächst im riesigen Fundus der Filmgesellschaft. Doch als Ward Kimball daran ging, eine Eisenbahn in seinem Garten aufzubauen, schenkte ihm Walt Disney kurzerhand die Bahnhofsdekoration. So entstanden die Grizzly Flats, “Amerikas erste Gartenbahn im Maßstab 1:1â€, in Kalifornien. Kurz zuvor kauften Ward und Betty Kimball zwei 0-4-2 Baldwin-Lokomotiven von einer Zuckerrohrplantage in Hawaii. Eine der Loks, die Pokaa, wurde aufgearbeitet und nach Chloe, der jüngsten Tochter der Kimballs, benannt. Im Einsatz steht diese Dampflokomotive oft mit den Grizzly Flats-Aussichtswagen. Diese Fahrzeuge können Sie auch auf Ihrer Anlage einsetzen. Das LGB-Modell der Dampflok Chloe ist ebenso bunt gehalten wie ihr Vorbild. Das interessante Führerhaus, der große Schornstein und der Kuhfänger wurden originalgetreu nachgebildet. Sogar der freie Durchblick zwischen Kessel und Fahrwerk ist bei diesem LGB-Modell möglich. Mit einem Decoder onboard eignet sich die Lok für den Einsatz auf analogen und MZS-gesteuerten LGB-Anlagen. Zusammen mit den beiden Grizzly Flats-Aussichtswagen können Sie einen stilvollen Zug der Grizzly Flats im Modell nachbilden.

Set was a collector-Edition
From the beginning of the Disney studios, Ward Kimball was one of the most important artists on Walt Disney’s team. He penned many famous characters such as Snow White, Pinocchio and Dumbo. But his connection with Disney was reinforced because both loved trains. One day, Walt Disney instructed Kimball to build a small romantic train station for the movie “So Dear to My Heart,†and Grizzly Flats Station was born. After the movie was completed, the station vanished into the huge inventory of the movie company. But when Ward Kimball began to build a railroad in his garden, Walt Disney simply gave him the train station prop. That was the beginning of Grizzly Flats Railroad, “America's first full-size, backyard railroad,†in California. A little earlier, Ward and Betty Kimball had bought two 0-4-2 Baldwin locomotives from a Hawaii sugar plantation. One of the locos, named Pokaa, was rebuilt and named after Chloe, the youngest daughter of the Kimballs. That loco is used to haul the Grizzly Flats sightseeing cars.
You can operate this train on your LGB layout. The LGB model of the steam loco Chloe is as colorful as its prototype. The interesting cab, the large smoke stack and the cow catcher have been faithfully replicated. The model even features the “see-through†space between the boiler and drivetrain. With its onboard decoder, the loco is suitable for operation on analog and LGB MTS layouts. Together with the two Grizzly Flats sightseeing cars, you can replicate a stylish Grizzly Flats train.
