Thomas

## Thomas the Tank Engine

**Thomas** is a cheeky blue tank engine who works on the North Western Railway. He originally worked as the station pilot at the Big Station, but longed to leave his yard to go out and see the world. After helping to rescue James from a nasty accident, Thomas was rewarded with two new coaches, Annie and Clarabel and was given the responsibility of running the Ffarquhar Branch Line, where he continues to work to this day.

## Personality

Thomas is described as being a cheeky, fussy engine. He often gets into scrapes, usually by being over eager to do things best left to bigger and more sensible engines. But clouds never last long in Thomas' life and he is soon bustling about again, playing his part in the yard and on his very own branch line, of which he is extremely proud.

He loves teasing the others, especially the bigger engines, such as Gordon and on occasion brags about his superiority, but is always brought down to earth in due course by anyone willing to correct him, especially the Fat Controller and his two coaches (Annie and Clarabel). If Thomas has one major character flaw, it is that he is forgetful and rather impatient. However, he is also optimistic, idealistic and altruistic and has a heart of gold.

A friend to all engines and a popular member of the Fat Controller’s Railway, Thomas is No.1 and does his best every day to live up to that through helping his friends and those that he cares about. He lives to be a Really Useful Engine and encourages everyone else to do the same. He likes to be better than James and Bertie in races. He can (however) also get annoyed about being useful such as the time when Rosie followed him around because she idolised him so much.

Despite all this, he does have his pride, and will sometimes take wrong advice at the wrong time - such as from Ace or Sailor John, as well as refusing help even when he needs it.

## Technical Details

### Basis

Thomas is based on the LB&SCR Class E2 0-6-0T, particularly the second batch of locomotives built with extended side-tanks. These engines were built by Brighton Works between 1913-1916 to replace the ageing Stroudley E1 class and were primarily used for heavy shunting and short-distance goods trains in the London area and on the south coast. During their final working years, the E2 class worked as shunting engines at Southampton Docks alongside the USATC S100 Tank Engines (Rosie's basis), until they were replaced by the BR Class 07 diesel shunters (Salty's Basis). All of the E2s were scrapped, with none surviving into preservation.

Thomas has several major differences from the original E2 class. He is much shorter in length than his original basis, he has two extra windows on the sides of his cab and he has wheel splashers, something the E2 class lacked. In early volumes of The Railway Series and the television series, Thomas' footplate is dipped at the front, but oddly enough is not dipped at the back. In Branch Line Engines, his footplate was levelled out from smokebox to bunker.

Thomas' basis
### Livery

Thomas is painted in NWR sky blue with red lining. His number is painted on the sides of his tanks in yellow with red lining and the lining around his cab windows is yellow.

In The Adventure Begins, Thomas was originally painted teal-green with white lining. He had the initials "LBSC" and the number 70 painted on the sides of his tanks and cab respectively in yellow with red lining and his wheel rims were painted white.

In the first three seasons of the television series, Thomas had red lining on the back of his coal bunker, but during production of the third season episode (All at Sea), the lining was removed for unknown reasons. The lining was later re-added to him in The Adventure Begins.

In his imagination of being streamlined, he was painted in NWR sky blue with red lining, He has a white stripe along his footplate, and a thicker stripe bordered by red on his sides. His number is painted on the sides of his boiler in yellow with red lining and the lining around his cab windows is yellow. His funnel is painted black.

In Big World! Big Adventures!, his streamlined form (known as turbo mode in TrackMaster) takes multiple elements from his usual livery, such as a black smokebox and red boiler bands. He gains lining over the stripe above his footplate, mimicking the lining on his tanks before streamlining. The number one was shifted over there as well. The bulb of his lamp is now yellow, whereas the lamp itself is painted red with a half circle of the same color sloping down from his face. Unlike his imagination, his turbo mode has a visor over his eyes.
