Here's the answer to last weeks Push Trivia question:

Question: Walt Disney loved to ride these so much he had one put in his backyard. What is it?

Answer: A Railroad.
Walt Disney loved trains and there was nothing he liked better than sharing his love of trains with others. In 1949 when he moved to his house in Holmby Hills, California with the help of Imagineer and Disney Legend Roger E. Broggie, Walt built a railroad in his backyard. The half-mile railroad featured a one-eight scale steam locomotive train, named Lilly Belle (after his wife Lilly). The train rode on 2,615 feet of track that included a 46-foot bridge, sloping hills, an elevated dirt berm and 90-foot tunnel (which ran under his wife's flower garden).
The Carolwood Pacific Railroad (Walt named the railroad after the street he lived on – Carolwood Drive) was also part of the inspiration for Disneyland. The railroad was overseen and controlled from Walt's Barn. The barn, which was also located in the backyard, was where Walt went to relax and develop new ideas – the barn is also considered the "birthplace of Imagineering."

Walt plays engineer as he gives a group of lucky Guests a ride on the Carolwood Pacific! Look closely in the background and you can see Walt's Barn – the birthplace of Imagineering.

After Walt Disney passed away, the Carolwood Pacific was donated by his wife Lilly to Los Angeles Live Steamers railroad club (who Walt was a member) and eventually to Griffith Park in Los Angeles – where the Carolwood Pacific Railroad and the barn reside today.

Did you know: Imagineers modeled the two original trains for Disneyland after the Lilly Belle. Under the supervision of Roger E. Broggie, WED Enterprises built the trains at the Walt Disney Studios by hand. Three more locomotives were later added to the Park but those were brought to the location from elsewhere

Here are the 3 lucky (and randomly picked) players that sent in the correct answer for our last week's question!
