    The part where he argues with his brother about who the trains belong to is funny.  I have seen that between my dad and one of his brothers.

I like how Red wants to hide them from the rest of the family. When they're manhandling the box, you could see the orange-and-blue boxes and three-rail track. At the end of the episode, he has a big carpet layout in the basement --

I've seen that episode several times, but don't recall the specific train items.  They were, however, Lionel trains.

Three Rail Trains in "That 70's Show"
Posted by bnsfkline on Sunday, July 16, 2006 6:56 PM

I recently purchased the first two seasons of "That 70's Show" on DVD at Barns and Noble, and in Episode 1-23/25 (Season 1, Episode 23 of 25) "Grandma's Dead" shows the Hardass Red Foreman playin with what looks like Pre-war, Tin plate trains that was his and his brothers, It had a Steamer, cant remember which, and what appeared to be 700 series freight cars and an orange passenger car, The thing is that I know that MTH has mad reproductions, but if anyone can fill me in on the equipment and structers in the show, help would be greatly appreciated. What really brought this scene together is that Red thought that his mother had thrown out the trains after he went to Korea, and he had completly forgotten about them.

 

Any help with this would be apreciated.
