Nelson-Wiggen 6X in Disneyland Main Street
By Dave Allan

We recently completed a refresh of the Nelson-Wiggen 6X that plays
in the Disneyland Main Street Train Station.  I have started uploading
videos to YouTube here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rQKwUNsO4dI
Attachment thumbnail In the evening the lighting in the train station is not very good; I'm sorry only the inside is visible in the video. I will post some daylight videos when I get some. Please enjoy! Dave Allan [ Dave writes at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IFX23u2aJTc
Attachment thumbnail : [ [ "We currently have a small team that works on these instruments. [ I cared for the collection (including the Welte and the Nelson [ Wiggen) from 1974 to about 1985. I then moved on to other jobs. [ I am now back in the department watching over the restorations. [ When I was hired in 1974 they picked me for the job because [ I was mechanically inclined, was studying to be a piano tech, [ and was a music major in college. I do all I can to keep them [ playing good." [ [ -- Robbie
