Marceline, Missouri: Midget Autopia
Salvaged from Disneyland in 1966: an outdoor ride with tiny cars on a motorized track. Moved to Marceline, then dug up and moved to a different spot in town in 2023. The motorized track is gone, but you can walk the treeless, sun-baked, looping path and pretend you're a kid in a tiny car. One of the cars is displayed next door in the Walt Disney Hometown Museum.

It's lovely that the community raised money to remake the winding "road" and a building that would have housed the cars. A refurbished car can be seen in the museum.
