Walt Disney's Carolwood Barn originally sat in Walt Disney's backyard in Holmby Hills, amongst his beloved Carolwood Pacific Railroad layout (Carolwood was the name of the street on which the house was located). After the death of Walt's widow Lillian in 1997, the Disney family sold the Carolwood property. The barn was removed and placed in the care of the Los Angeles Live Steamers and the Carolwood Pacific Historical Society. The barn is now a museum dedicated to Walt's love of trains and model railroading. The exhibits chronicle how trains influenced many aspects of Walt's life, including the creation of Disneyland Park.
