Il dessina beaucoup de personnages célèbres tels Blanche Neige, Pinocchio et Dumbo. Ses rapports avec Walt Disney étaient renforcés car ils partageaient la même passion pour les trains. Un jour, Walt Disney demanda à Kimball de construire une petite gare romantique pour le film « So Dear to My Heart », c’est ainsi que la gare de Grizzly Flats vit le jour. La gare disparut dans le vaste stock d’accessoires de la compagnie cinématographique à la fin du tournage. Walt Disney en fit cadeau à Ward Kimball quand celui-ci commença la construction d’un chemin de fer sur sa propriété. Ce fut le début du Grizzly Flats Railroad, « le premier chemin de fer de jardin grandeur nature en Amérique », en Californie. Ward et Betty Kimball avaient acheté quelque temps auparavant deux locomotives Baldwin 0-4-2 d’une plantation de canne à sucre d’Hawaï. Une des locomotives, qui portait le nom Pokaa, fut reconstruite et rebaptisée Chloe, du nom de la fille cadette des Kimball. ➜ 2 © DiskArt™ 1988 Die Grizzly Flat Railroad war Ward Kimballs The Grizzly Flats was Ward Kimball’s personal Le Grizzly Flats était le chemin de fer de jardin eigene Gartenbahn im Maßstab 1:1. garden railroad, with full-size trains. personnel de Ward Kimball, on y voyait des trains grandeur nature. 3 Photo: Archiv/E.P.Lehmann. ➜ 4 © DiskArt™ 1988 Der Bahnhof “Grizzly Flats” war für einen The Grizzly Flats station was used as a La gare de Grizzly Flats a été utilisée comme Disney-Spielfilm gebaut worden.

Jack Burgess, Vice President f you hear something about an amusement park ride, what comes to mind? Disneyland? Yes! Great America? Yes! Our railroad at Ardenwood? No way! Well, yes. According to the State of California, our historic narrow gauge railroad is a “Permanent Amusement Ride,” just like the train at Disneyland. Last summer, some of our members raised the possibility that we might be considered a “Permanent Amusement Ride.” But our railroad doesn’t go upside down nor drop riders 90 feet nearly straight down into a splash pool— it only runs about 3 mph over nearly level track.

He and his older brother Roy would often wait for the trains that roared through their home- town of Marceline. Often, their uncle, Mike Martin, would be at the throttle of the mighty steam engine and would wave to the boys as he passed. During visits to the family farm, Mike would entertain the boys with exciting stories of life on the rails, and legendary figures such as Casey Jones and Buffalo Bill. Many years later, Walt rekindled his love of trains. In the 1940's, he frequently visited the backyard railroads of two of his key animators, Ward Kimball and Ollie Johnston. He decided to construct a home with enough land to allow him to build his own backyard railroad. It was located in the Holmby Hills area of Los Angeles on Carolwood Drive, and he called his railroad the Carolwood Pacific. He decided that the size of his steam engine would be one-eighth of a full-scale locomotive. He based his engine on the famous Central Pacific 173, which was the first steam engine built in California. Walt, Roger Broggie and the machinists at the Disney Studios machine shop built the large-scale miniature.
