Welcome! I am Ward Kimball- and this is my Grizzly Flats Station. This station wasn't Always called that- long time ago it was called Fulton Corners Station. It was the actual Station used in the movie "So Dear to my Heart"
 



 

        In 1949, This Little gold with red trim train station began as a movie set designed by Ward Kimball for the Disney Movie 'So dear to my heart,. When the movie shooting was finished Walt Disney gave Ward the Station to be housed on his property. Since the Station was a set, it was quite flimsy for pratical use blueprints were drawn up for it and many countless hours were spent building it up to it's present sturdy form. It now houses a wonderful and extensive collection of antique steam train books, prints and photos, stereograms, a working pot belly stove and even a model of itself.

        Still to this day, every so often passenger a waits here for the next train.
