character guide

WARNING: Long page ahead.

Thomas

Thomas is the number one blue engine, but sometimes he sure as hell doesn't act like it! He's a bit of an "every-engine", able to do whatever he pleases without getting into trouble with the production crew. He likes to race Bertie and the other engines, and is often shown to be a bit of a complete fucking moron.

Emily

Emily is a bossy little prick who thinks she's the queen of the railways. She takes great joy in bossing the other engines around and believing she knows everything. The only thing she isn't proud of is the fact that she had to fight to be able to vote.

Godred

Well, what can we say?

"Well Catherine, I guess I'm a killer clown today. I would say bullets are gonna spray. But I'm from Brooklyn, so that's okay."

​

(Oh, he also loves getting drunk.)

Spiteful Brake Van

The FUCKIN Spiteful Brake Van, man. He's always got a little somethin' to say! No matter where you find him, he's got a comment to make! Hopefully it's insightful!

(Spoilers: no it wont be)

Jock

Oh Jock, where do we even begin? Let's just say, he's a chill engine who lowkey doesn't give a fuck.
He's the coolest engine on the island, a friend of everyone. Jock almost never has something to complain about, but you should be afraid of him crashing out.

​

Never ask him about what happened with Arry and Bert.

Arthur

Arthur is the white nerd of the engine family. Too knowledgeable for his own good, but also really stupid about some topics, like how to handle trucks, sex, women and where cotton candy dispensers are supposed to be placed. Him and his dad are NOT close at all. (Painful story.)

Nobody seems to be rude to him in spite of his own idiocy.

Gordon

Gordon is the big express engine and in denial about being bisexual (please laugh).
He has quite the sailor's mouth, and always thinks he's more important than anyone or anything.
He's willing to use his strength to help others, but he will up and leave in 2 seconds if the engine he saved goes right back to being stupid. Gordon also really likes "Special Washdowns". *wink wink*

Spencer

"Mmm, well FUCK ME I GUESS!"

Spencer is the private par- ENGINE of the Duke and Duchess of Boxford. He thinks he is royalty, and treats the engines of Sodor like his peasants, or as he would say, "his slaves". He's bossy, cocky, and is incredibly fast.
