We just got back from a cross country trip to Disneyland on Amtrak. One leg of the trip was going from Chicago to Fullerton Ca on Amtrak's Southwest Chief and I was pleasantly surprised when the train passed right through Marceline Missouri where Walt grew up!
I was periodically glancing out the window on the way out and out of the corner of my eye I thought I saw the name Marceline on an old train station building. A few seconds later I saw a sign for Walt Disney Municipal park and that confirmed it for me! On the way back I got a seat in the sightseeing car so I could get some pictures. Unfortunately we were moving pretty fast at that point so the pictures aren't the greatest.
This is Walt Disney Municpal Park, but the sign is directly behind that bush!
Here is the train station, you can just see the name on the side.
