Toby

**Toby** is a main character in *DTBEN10's Thomas and Friends Series.*

## Personality

Toby was old, but wise, hardworking and knowledgeable enough about running branch lines. Toby was also old in terms of outlook in life. He was also savvy enough to control the trucks. However, his advanced age and design means that he was weaker than the other engines. While Toby is always ready to work hard without any fuss, he could be a bit temperamental sometimes, especially when young and inexperienced engines who are full of themselves made things difficult for him. He could also be sometimes timid and nervous about the capabilities of his work and uncertain about being an old steam tram, believing that he is not a proper engine. However, because he did mainly work at the quarry line, he often soothed off his moods without any cause of grief to anyone, except of course his old faithful coach, Henrietta.
