The RKO location ranch was located in Encino.
It sported a complete western town with intersecting streets and a New York street.

The Hunchback of Notre Dame set was there as well as a Hacienda set.
A rail line ran through the property and was occasionally used for filming.
Other sets were built as needed, such as the 4 acre sets for It's A Wonderful Life.

The ranch property was sold in 1954.
