Trains from TV shows, movies, and cartoons
Posted by trainguy111 on Wednesday, May 5, 2010 5:48 PM

On some G scale indoor layouts or Garden Railways have models of trains that were featured in TV shows, movies, and/or cartoons. So for this discussion, we can discuss what types of these trains are available, have been available, and/or have been custom built.

 

Some good examples of these include the Thomas the tank engine line by Lionel and Bachmann, and the Accucraft Casey Junior. Any other good examples?

I don't remember what scale it was, but someone modeled the Toonerville Trolley a few years ago -- don't recall if it was a one-of-a-kind or mass produced.
