Broggie, Roger (1908-1991)
- As head of the
machine shop at the Disney Studio, Roger came
to Walt's attention when the boss decided he
wanted to tinker with making miniatures and
working of a scale-model train for his back
yard. In Roger's shop, Walt learned to use a
lathe and other machines, and Roger was
pressed into service to design the layout for
Walt's railroad and help build the rolling stock.
With a reputation as a train expert, Roger
worked also on the trains for Disneyland and the
later Disney parks.
