What is the Disney railroad called?

The Disneyland Railroad (DRR), formerly known as the Santa Fe & Disneyland Railroad, is a 3-foot (914 mm) narrow-gauge heritage railroad and attraction in the Disneyland theme park of the Disneyland Resort in Anaheim, California, in the United States.



The iconic steam-powered train systems at Disney's premier resorts have specific names. At Walt Disney World in Florida, it is officially the Walt Disney World Railroad (WDWRR), a 1.5-mile heritage railway that circles the Magic Kingdom with stops in Main Street U.S.A., Frontierland, and Fantasyland. At Disneyland in California, it is the Disneyland Railroad (DRR). Both systems utilize authentic, restored 19th-century steam locomotives. In 2026, the WDWRR is particularly popular following its multi-year closure for the TRON construction, and it remains a "Grand Circle Tour" that provides both a practical transport method and a nostalgic attraction. Each train is a piece of living history, often named after Disney legends or family members, such as the Walter E. Disney or the Lilly Belle, reflecting Walt's personal lifelong passion for "live steam" railroading.
