sorry but I'm curious...are you wearing a corset in this picture? - MayBie  1864.2 #40 10:18PM
I was thinking the same. She just doesn't look comfortable in the middle. but I mean well though - Starr  549.9 #201 10:21PM

The LillyBelle opened in 1976, Walt passed a few years before, so no, he never did ride it. He had been planning and designing it when he died and his wife took over as a tribute to him. - staceeyl  237.2 #1138 6:26AM
When I rode it the CM told us Walt used to ride it all time time. Hours sometimes. He said too that Walt would entertain potential investors/dignitaries there too. Club 33 he never saw completed. Maybe the two are bein mixed up. - CaliCanuck  511.7 #229 6:50AM
http://www.disneylandclub33.com/Lilly Belle.htm ......found this through Google, indicates it was brought into service in 1976 - CVDisneyland  256.9 #934 6:57AM
There was previously a car called Retlaw1 which was retired in 1974..., that he used which is probably where the confusion comes in....the name by the way is Walter spelled backwords - CVDisneyland  256.9 #934 7:04AM
"Lilly Belle" is also the name of the scaled-down steam locomotive Disney ran in his own backyard and the parlour car of the Disneyland Railroad. It should also be noted that Lilly Belle was built in 1928, which would make her as old as Mickey Mouse. - Wizard  81.6 #3254 6:59AM
Yay! Hope you enjoyed it... Nice pic! :) - Duchess73  293.7 #650 9:02PM
What is the lily belle? Never seen it - Tinkerbellmom4  295.9 #631 9:03PM
It's on the Disneyland Railroad, Walt and his wife used to use it. :) - hook_cm  6.2 #8839 9:07PM
Did you feel the past presence of Walt and Lilly Belle? - E-Ticket  771.7 #127 9:05PM
I did. I got teary eyed. - hook_cm  6.2 #8839 9:06PM
Welcome hook_cm! Isn't it awesome? See you at Indy soon or just on the route? - IDVandalSkipperCM  1290.2 #63 10:12PM
HI ERIKA! - hook_cm  6.2 #8839 11:23AM
You look adorable and very happy! - SueBayou  2012.0 #34 10:15PM
We just rode it for the first time a few weeks ago. Loved it. Our guide, however, told us that Walt actually passed before using it, although he did design it (twice actually, because the mrs. didn't like the original). I would love to know which of the accounts is right, from one of you all-knowing mousewaiters :) - LittleAprilShowers  471.0 #256 11:26PM
I havent been in it yet. Hopefully on our next trip. - TrueFromOzLovesDisney  312.2 #545 12:32AM
Walt used it when it was called the 'grand canyon' which was that cart, but it's been changed over the years including being named the Lilly belle after his train at his house :) - AshleyLynn22  747.6 #136 12:31PM
This pose for some reason reminds me of the movie Death Becomes Her - Starr  549.9 #201 4:02PM
She reminds me of what someone would look like if they were a real life (actual weight/flesh on her body teenage girl) Ariel. - DuffysJuju  627.4 #172 12:41PM
I think you look beautiful! Great picture! - Jillybean85  210.6 #1481 12:58PM
Hook, this is a really great picture and I sincerely hope you had a great time on the Lilly Belle, that's still on bucket list of stuff I need to do at Disneyland! - SarahJoshDisney  69.5 #3405 12:59PM
You look just as fabulous as the Lilly Belle. :-) - GlitterFabulous  79.9 #3273 1:10PM
Cute pic!! :0) - acesdisneygirl  85.1 #3203 1:14PM
