Disney and the LA Live Steamers

After closing the railroad at his home, Walt Disney relocated his steam train to the Disney Studio and helped form the Los Angeles Live Steamers, only a mile from the studio.

In 1956 after opening Disneyland Walt relocated his 7 1/2 inch gauge live steam railroad to the Walt Disney Studios and the new LA Live Steamers. The equipment barn was relocated later along with a passenger car from the Santa Fe and Disneyland Railroad, the combine number 101. Just a few year ago another Disney locomotive was brought to the LA Live Steamers Railroad, Natures Wonderland Railroad #1 from the old Disneyland ride through the Rainbow Caverns and Natures Wonderland in Frontierland.

Also here is Olie Johnston's depot from his 4 3/4 inch gauge steam railroad. And his 3 foot gauge locomotive the Marie E.

We also visit the nearby Disney Studios as well as the Griffith Park Merry-go-round just down the street from the LA Live Steam Railroad, where Walt Disney was inspired to build Disneyland while sitting on a bench watching his daughters ride the Merry-go-round.
