The Gig
The Swankiest Train on Earth
The Scene
We had heard rumor that the Lilly Belle had been refurbished and was once again gracing the tracks of the Disneyland Railroad. For those who wonder what the Lilly Belle is, it was Walt Disney's wife Lillian's private rail car for when they stayed at the park.
In order to ride, a lead must be present to tell you a brief history of the car and its restoration, on how it's decor matched that of the Main Street Firehouse - AKA Walt's apartment.
But words fail to describe the swankiness of this experience, so here are a few pictures:
