The Walt Disney World Railroad's (WDWRR) No. 3 locomotive was named after Broggie. During its rebuild, Broggie did not like the sound of the locomotive's original bell and commented that it "sounded like a hammer hitting an old frying pan." Per advice of Broggie, WDWRR restoration supervisor George Britton secretly swapped out the No. 3 locomotive's original bell with the Liberty Bellestern-wheeler's bell. On October 21, 2003, his sons Michael Broggie and Roger Broggie, Jr rededicated the No. 3 locomotive in honor of their father.
