The 2014 White House Christmas ornament is the 1921-1923 train for President Warren G. Harding.

The White House Historical Association is selling these ornaments.

They do not say how large the steam locomotive and passenger car ornaments are in total on the official website.

 

I suspect that it is plated plastic for the price of $18.95.

 

What is your opinion of this ornament?

I ordered a set and it is nicely done. The size is about the size of your finger a little smaller than N scale. They both are metal not plastic. Similar construction to the MTH delicate laser cut  metal ornament In 3D form. It comes with a little booklet of the story of president Harding and his relation to trains. Not bad for the price considering you would pay the same for almost any Hallmark ornament.  I'm glad I bought one. 

Mine arrived and its stunning.  For $18.95 this is a steal.  All MADE IN USE.  Out of pressed brass and enameled.  The brass is also plated with 22kt gold.  Makes you wonder what Hallmark is doing with molded plastic ornaments (not even China anymore) Sri Lanka on some...for $19.95.  The detail and drive linkage are impressive.
