— Thomas the Tank Engine to Percy, Ghost Train. | ||
Thomas the Tank Engine is a fictional anthropomorphic steam locomotive in The Railway Series books by the Rev. W. Awdry and his son, Christopher. Thomas is a tank engine, painted blue with red lining, and displays the running number 1. All of the locomotives in The Railway Series were based on prototypical engines; Thomas has origins in the E2 Class designed by Lawson Billinton in 1913. Thomas is often described as a cheeky fussy engine. He initially worked as the station pilot at Knapford. After helping to rescue James from a nasty accident, Thomas was permanently assigned to the Ffarquhar Branch Line with his two faithful coaches, Annie and Clarabel. The programmer became an award-winning hit around the world, with a vast range of spinoff commercial products.
