The Carolwood Pacific Railroad (CPRR) was a 7+1⁄4-inch (184 mm) gauge ridable miniature railroad run by Walt Disney in the backyard of his home in the Holmby Hills neighborhood of Los Angeles, California. It featured the Lilly Belle, a 1:8-scale live steam locomotive named after Disney's wife, Lillian Disney, and built by the Walt Disney Studios' machine shop. The locomotive made its first test run on December 24, 1949. It pulled a set of freight cars, as well as a caboose that was almost entirely built by Disney himself. It was Disney's lifelong fascination with trains, as well as his interest in miniature models, that led to the creation of the CPRR. The railroad, which became operational in 1950, was 2,615 feet (797 m) long and encircled his house. The backyard railroad attracted visito

  • 卡洛伍德太平洋鐵路(英語:Carolwood Pacific Railroad)是條軌道間距為184毫米的載人微型鐵路,由華特·迪士尼營運,位於加利福尼亞州洛杉磯自家後院。鐵路賣點是1:8比例由活蒸氣推動的機車莉莉貝萊號,它由華特迪士尼製片廠機械工場團隊打造,以迪士尼妻子莉蓮·迪士尼為名來向她致敬。1949年12月24日,迪士尼首次試行了機車及煤水車。迪士尼畢生對於火車的痴迷,以及他對微型模型的興趣,促成了卡洛伍德太平洋鐵路誕生。鐵路於1950年投入運營,它全長797米,包含橋樑隧道等設施,並圍繞整個宅邸。鐵路啟用的消息經媒體報導後,吸引了不少遊客慕名前來,迪士尼會邀請他們乘坐火車,有時更會讓他們嘗試駕駛。但是,火車在1953年初脫軌,導致遊客受傷,迪士尼擔心未來可能會再生事故,於是關閉鐵路。 卡洛伍德太平洋鐵路啟發迪士尼將鐵路納入加利福尼亞州安那翰的迪士尼樂園景點設計中。現時,鐵路景點在世界各地的迪士尼樂園內已是司空見慣。位於宅邸後院的穀倉曾經是鐵路控制中心,現已搬遷至洛杉磯格里斐斯公園的活蒸氣火車鐵路博物館。莉莉貝萊號、守車、部分貨車於旧金山的華特迪士尼家族博物館展出,另有兩輛車輛展於華特迪士尼世界的旅館。 (zh)

  • Carolwood Pacific Railroad est le nom du chemin de fer miniature construit en partie par Walt Disney dans son jardin. Le nom provient de la rue où résidait Walt Disney : la Carolwood Drive dans le quartier d'Holmby Hills à Los Angeles et du fait que les noms des sociétés de chemin de fer du XIXe siècle précisaient sur quelle façade océanique elles étaient situées.

  • Тихоокеанская Карлвудская железная дорога (англ. Carolwood Pacific Railroad) — миниатюрная садовая железная дорога, которую построил Уолт Дисней в 1950 году на заднем дворе своего дома в Лос-Анджелесе. Уолт Дисней решил построить собственную садовую железную дорогу под впечатлением от увлечения аниматоров Уорда Кимбалла и Олли Джонстона, у которых были миниатюрные железные дороги на заднем дворе. Название железной дороги обусловлено улицей, на которой стоял дом Уолта Диснея, — 355 N. Carolwood Drive. (ru)
