Thought this'd be a good topic
The Wild Wild West TV show had a HO set in the 1st season

The new Lone Ranger movie had one I wants it!
I paused the movie right when camera showed the 4-4-0 & it loco had a Kadee coupler on it!
Gotta have!

does the episode of "big bang theory" when sheldon puts a z scale in his mouth count?

60 years ago, there was a train accident here in nz, now known as the "tanigwai disaster". it happened when lahar from a volcano escaped and flooded a river, destroying a rail bridge. there was a movie made about it a couple of years back which used scale trains.

of course, theres the early thomas and friends series as well.

On one episode of the Big Bang Theory Sheldon is looking for a new city to move to and is ruling out ones that don't have a model train shop. On his nightstand is a yellow bonnet F-unit that looks possibly like Lionel or MTH.

In one of the Harry Potter films if you look closely you will see an Ho Thomas the Tank engine and a Percy running on loops in Prof. Dumbledore's chamber.

trains that resemble Thomas yes but not the characters
Course we all know The Addam's Family TV show used Lionels
Movie used ones that were similar

Who could forget Doc Brown's model train set in Back to the Future 3?

Remember Garry Coleman in Different Strokes, he had a great Lionel set and was a true rail fan himself. Another great layout in a movie was in the first Stuart Little film.

An episode of The Dukes of Hazzard has a nice little Lionel layout in Boss Hogg's office. Trains seen later in the episode are also models, but likely much larger scale.
