Later, some trucks pushed James off the line and into a field. In no time at all, Thomas came to help James and scolded the trucks, hoping to teach them a lesson. Once, James had to take some trucks with trees to be made into timber, only for the trucks to play tricks on him. They surged into James, causing him to crash and nearly fall off a cliff. Thomas once again came to James’ rescue and pulled him to safety.

When Devious Diesel first arrived, he thought he knew better than any of the steam engines and attempted to move an old line of trucks out of a siding.

Don't Judge a Book by Its Cover

Don't Judge a Book by Its Cover is a song from Season 1 of Thomas’ Friendship Tales. It is based on Terence's theme.

## Lyrics

Thomas first saw Terence the Tractor…
…ploughing in a field one day…
…and he said, "My oh my, you do look funny.
Where are your wheels, are your wheels, are your wheels?
However do you move along?
You really do look funny."
"Don't be so rude," said Terence the Tractor
"I don't have rails like you
Because my caterpillar tracks are so much better.
And I can go anywhere, anywhere, anywhere
I don't need rails like you.
One day I will prove it, show you how I do it
Then you will understand…"
Don't judge a book by its cover
Don't make your mind up too soon
Things aren't necessarily…
…always what they appear to be
Don't judge a book by its cover
Don't make your mind up too soon
Never-Never, Never-Never, Never-Never, Never-Never
Never judge a book by its cover.
Sure enough, one winter's day
When the snow lay deep and hard
Thomas got stuck, he was in trouble
And who do you think came along, came along
And rescued him that day
The snow didn't matter to Terence the Tractor
Now Thomas understands…
Don't judge a book by its cover
Don't make your mind up too soon
Things aren't necessarily…
…always what they appear to be
Don't judge a book by its cover
Don't make your mind up too soon
Never-Never, Never-Never, Never-Never, Never-Never
Never judge a book by its cover.
Don't judge a book by its cover
Don't make your mind up too soon
Things aren't necessarily…
…always what they appear to be
Don't judge a book by its cover
Just remember the rule.
Never-Never, Never-Never, Never-Never, Never-Never (x2)
Never judge a book by its cover!

Harvey

Harvey is a cheerful little crane engine. He is often used for smaller jobs and loading cargo.

## Bio

Harvey was first brought on trial, but was shunned by the other engines for being different. However, Thomas was kind to Harvey and told him it took time to make new friends. When Percy had an accident, Harvey came to the rescue and the other engines realized how useful Harvey was and welcomed him to the island.

Another time, Bill and Ben kept on teasing Harvey for not being a "proper engine" and were scolded by Emily. Feeling hurt, Harvey decided to prove he was a proper engine and took a heavy freight train. Harvey went too fast and crashed into a siding. Sir Topham Hatt angrily told off Harvey for being so foolish, but understood why he did after the crane engine explained. Later, Emily informed Harvey that Bill and Ben had crashed near the mountains and though hesitant, Harvey set off to put things right. He lifted Bill, Ben and their trucks back on track and felt like a proper engine in his own way.

## Personality

Harvey is a cheerful, easygoing crane engine. He may look unusual to the other engines, but he’s just as useful. Harvey is rather sensitive at times especially when someone makes fun of his crane arm. However, his crane is very useful in lifting cargo and helping smaller engines back onto the track. Harvey works at many of the railway yards on Sodor and helps out with smaller jobs. He's always ready to lend a helping hook and offer words of comfort to his friends.

Eventually, Scoop got the chance to meet Thomas, but the tank engine didn’t like him and the other machines at first. It only made things worse when Scoop unintentionally upset Thomas, making him leave off in a huff. Scoop tried to apologize, but Thomas wouldn’t listen and ended up crashing into some fresh cement Dizzy had just poured. With the help of his friends, Scoop managed to push Thomas free. Thankful for their help, Thomas apologized for his actions and offered to help the Can-Do Crew anyway he would/could. Since that day, Thomas and Scoop became the best of friends.

One day, Max and Monty were borrowed to help the Can Do Crew mend the rails while Muck was being repaired. The two of them instantly began picking on Lofty, calling him names and nearly making him crash into Toby. But thanks to Edward's advice about standing up to them, Lofty was confident enough to defend Dizzy from Max and Monty. The two dump trucks charged at him, only for Lofty to lift them up into the air. Terrified, the twins begged Lofty to let them down, to which he would by making them promise to never pick on him or his friends again. After that, Max and Monty ran off in fear, while Lofty was praised by Bob for being brave and standing up to them.

Mavis

**Mavis** is a Diesel engine belonging to the Ffarquhar Quarry Company.

## Bio

When work on the branch line was growing too much for the engines, Mavis was brought to help Toby at the quarry. She would constantly put the trucks in different places, which made Toby cross. Losing patience, Toby left Mavis to do whatever she liked, which only made things worse after Daisy urged the diesel to do so. This led to Mavis stuck in the middle of a level crossing being held back by the trucks.

Mavis was then told off by Sir Topham Hatt and wasn't allowed to leave the quarry. Formulating a plan, Mavis asked the trucks to give her a bump to pass the crossing without it seeming her fault. This backfired, when Percy came to collect the trucks instead, who proceeded to bump him, making him crash into a brake van. Mavis, along with Toby and Daisy helped clear the mess and after being given a second chance, now takes her work seriously and is sometimes allowed to come down the line.

## Personality

Mavis is a feisty young diesel who is full of her own ideas and doesn't take kindly to advice. Unlike most diesels, Mavis has great respect for steam engines, particularly Toby. She's always hard at work in the busy quarry, arranging the Troublesome Trucks and keeping them in order. While Mavis can sometimes feel lonely, she's always happy for the chance to stretch her wheels. While often stubborn and naïve, she is still a friendly diesel, and with Toby's help, Mavis is learning to be a Really Useful Engine.

Diesel

Diesel is a devious shunting engine. He is also the very first Diesel engine to come to Sodor. Diesel is known for causing trouble and is essentially the main antagonist of Thomas' Friendship Tales.

## Bio

Diesel came to Sodor to help out in the Yards. Duck was uncertain if this new engine was as nice as he seemed, to his dismay, he was right. Diesel began to brag about how Diesel engines like him were modern and revolutionary and that steam engines were out of date. Duck, insulted by this remark, told Diesel to arrange the trucks while he fetched Gordon's coaches. Diesel tried to show off how impressive he was, but made a fool of himself, causing the trucks to laugh at him. Diesel felt that Duck was to blame for making the trucks laugh at him and began to spread lies about Duck. The big engines soon began to dislike Duck and told him to keep out of their sheds for spreading rumors about them. To try and ease tension, Sir Topham Hatt sent Duck to work on Edward’s Branch Line for awhile. Eventually, Diesel was found out by Sir Topham Hatt when he began to spread lies about Henry. He was severely punished and had to do Duck‘s work until he came back.

## Personality

"Devious Diesel", as he is referred to by the other engines, is always bad news when he is around. He believes that he is superior to the steam engines as he is “modern” and “revolutionary.” Diesel is often known to play tricks on the other engines but this, more often than not, backfires on him. Oily, scheming and ever ready to stir up trouble in the shed, his characteristic smirk is a sure sign that someone, somewhere, is in for a bit of trouble.

## Livery

Pudding Town

Overworld View of Pudding Town

Pudding Town (火山の町 フーリン, *Kazan no Machi Fūrin)* is a desert town next to Mt. Pudding and Pudding Desert. The town is full of people who normally live in great splendor due to the profitable mining work.

## Story

The Prince arrives in Pudding Town on a mission to get gold from the Gold Mine on Mt. Pudding. He finds the town full of drunkards and layabouts; an old man informs him that the Gold Mine is too dangerous to work in, hence the apathetic populace. The Croakians are mining there, suspiciously not for gold, and attack anyone who come by.

After exploring the Gold Mine, the Prince realizes he needs to find an expert excavator in order to traverse the mine. Returning to Pudding Town, a villager suggests the Prince should put up an ad on the bulletin board to find one. After doing so, and talking to more of the populace, the Prince finds Russell's Wife, who explains her husband was once a miner, but now just hangs out at the bar all day.

The Prince goes to the bar and knocks some sense into Russell, who then goes to find his ad. He begs the Prince to hire him, which the Prince agrees to, and brings out his mining gang; Ore Supply. Now allied with an elite team of rock experts, the Prince leaves Pudding Town to excavate the mines...

When going through Ice Cavern for the first time, the player can spot the Mammoth frozen inside a block of ice, in front of a ladder.

After Mt. Pudding erupts, it is revealed that the ice has melted and as a result, the Prince's gold has fallen near the lake and the Mammoth has been thawed and has started to terrorize the village again and destroying houses. Red Riding Hood tells the Prince to stop it as the Elder cannot do it alone due to his old age. He is seen fighting it but is quickly defeated due the Mammoth's raw power. It is revealed that the weakness of the Mammoth is the Mirror Shield, an item that can reflect the beast's appearance and cause it to hesitate, and it must be retrieved in Ice Cavern.

After the Prince returns from retrieving the Mirror Shield, it turns out it is still not enough to take down the Mammoth. Elder then suggest the idea of using a device that can control animals, giving The Prince an idea to go to Mad Scienstein and ask to use the animal control device that he completed.

After the Prince acquires the animal control device, he can use the Mirror Shield to stun it, then place the animal control device on its head to stop its rampage. After the Prince exits the town, it will follow him around. It is then used so the Prince can transport the huge hunk of Gold he collected.

Trying to enter battle with it following the Prince will cause a cutscene to play, where the Mammoth roars then swings the enemy away, being an instant win for the player. It is then lended to Jinbee with the gold, along with its controller.

When you think life’s unfair
And you feel nobody cares

Sometimes those rainy days

Do not despair
You know we’ll be there
That’s what friends are for
