Fred Gurley

Fred Gurley is steam locomotive #3 on the Disneyland Railroad at Disneyland in Anaheim, California. Gurley is a 2-2-4T locomotive built by the Baldwin Locomotive Works in 1894, and went into service at Disneyland on March 28, 1958. It was named after Fred Gurley, then the current president of the Atchison, Topeka, and Santa Fe Railway, which was the sponsor of the Disneyland Railroad from 1955 to 1974. It is the oldest piece of operating railroad equipment in any Disney park.

Pre-Disneyland history
Previous to its use at Disneyland, the locomotive was used to transport sugar cane in Louisiana. Disney purchased the train in working condition for $1300, but then spent more than $35,000 on restoring it.

Today
The steam engine was converted to burn biodiesel in 2007, as it is less polluting than steam.
