HO Disneyland Layout

[Anonymous]

Hi everyone!
I live in So Calif. and for the past 30 years or so I have been going to my Favorite park.Disneyland.
One of my favorite rides is the Disneyland Railroad, 1 day someone asked me( Why dont you build a model of the railroad?)
So for the past 9 months I have been doing just that.
I am recreating the railroad and Mainstreet to the Castle.
My biggest problems Ive been having is Finding buildings that look like the ones on mainstreet.
Does anyone know where I can find a Castle in ho scale? that looks like the one at Disneyland?

Thanks Mrcaliman]

I believe the Japanese model company Doyosha produced a model of Neuschwanstein castle . This is the actual castle that Disney used as a basis for the design of his castle. I'm not sure of the model's scale of whether it's still in production.

Ah...the Disneyland Railroad...something of a passion of mine.

You probably won't be able to find exact copies of the DL buildings, unless you scratchbuild them. Many Walthers and DPM buildings can be used, however, to achieve the flavor of Main Street.

If you've received the latest Walthers catalog, you can find a brick station called (I believe) the "Menomonee Falls Station" that can be used as a wonderful basis to kitbash Main Street Station. (ah...here it is: http://www.walthers.com/exec/productinfo/538-501 )

Best of luck, and I'm sure we'd all love to see your work. I'm sure the folks over at the Burnsland message board at http://www.burnsland.com/cgi-bin/drrdb2/ikonboard.cgi?s=4d20d77857b793431e8b5d44d03b25f1;act=SF;f=2 would love to see it too!

The castle in Disneyland is turned around backwards,so from Main street,you are looking at the back of the castle.

Go to the walthers site http://www.walthers.com/ and do a search on castles in HO scale. They import a number of them from Germany. You'll probably have to kitbash and paint.
Enjoy

Hello mr caliman! There is a model of Neuschwanstein Castle made by a German company.....I think it's Faller....could be Kibri or one of the others though. I'll take a look around.
