South in the 19th century and to forests of the Pacific Northwest.
* In 1993, Mickey's Toontown, themed on the Toontown seen in the film Who Framed

An elevated berm supports a narrow gauge railroad which circumnavigates the
park. Disneyland features rides and attractions designed to appeal to all ages.
In 1998 Disneyland was renamed Disneyland Park in order to distinguish it from
the larger Disneyland Resort complex.
