I totally want one of these. They will be released in the fall as part of the 55th anniversary!

Here is the article....
For many years a dilapidated old train sat in ruins along the banks of the Rivers of America, the last remaining scrap of an extinct Disneyland attraction from bygone days. It was in terrible shape, rotting and falling apart from years of exposure. Barely legible on its domed boiler was a faded gold number "1".
About a month ago, the train vanished from the park (finally given to the care of the Disney Archives), and Jody and I were somewhat surprised to see it gone. For the past year one of our projects has been to make a miniature replica of Train #1 as it appeared bright and new in 1960 when Nature's Wonderland opened. We felt it would be a happier way to remember this attraction, the layout of which had been designed by Walt Disney himself.
Our replica of the Nature's Wonderland Mine Train #1 will be released this fall, as part of the ongoing celebration of Disneyland's 55th Anniversary.
