List of people and animals from Thomas & Friends

The television series Thomas & Friends features many fictional people and animals who interact with the engine characters and form the basis for many of the varying storylines. The following list describes the more notable people and animals that have appeared. A few have appeared in more than one episode, but most appear just once.

A number of the characters originated in The Railway Series of children's books by Wilbert Awdry. Where appropriate, cross-links are provided to allow access to the non-TV side of the character in question.

Major and Recurring Characters

The Fat Controller

Main article: The Fat Controller

Sir Topham Hatt, also known as The Fat Controller, is in charge of most the engines on Sodor, and has a great deal of influence on the Island. He is firm but fair, and is an extremely complex character. He often acts as a father-figure to the engines of Sodor - when an engine is upset he speaks to them kindly, and he treats all his engines equally. He does not stand for nonsense, but is also forgiving. When an engine misbehaves, as they often do on his railway, he is willing to allow them a second chance if they are truly sorry.

He is also quite perceptive and shrewd, and is not above using elaborate schemes to get to the bottom of a problem. For example, when Diesel had been spreading rumours about Duck telling jokes about the big engines, he sent Duck to Edward's Branch line, but some time later, The Fat Controller complimented Duck for his bravery, confiding that he never truly believed Diesel's lies.

He is undeniably nostalgic, and the way he runs his railway recalls the better elements of the days of steam. He is not afraid to get his hands dirty at the footplate of a steam engine. As a young man, he learned to drive a steam-powered lorry named Elizabeth.

Some time later, after Toby came to The Fat Controller's railway, the family traveled with Toby to an old castle and mine on a map the children found.

The books give the children's full names as Stephen Topham Hatt and Bridget Amanda Hatt. Stephen ultimately became The Fat Controller, like his father and grandfather. In the television series, the two have rarely aged.

By hanging a bright red dress from her window, she successfully stopped Thomas' train before it crashed. As a token of gratitude, The Fat Controller paid for Mrs. Kyndley to visit Bournemouth to get better. Years later, the other engines, hearing Thomas' story, wished to express thanks to Mrs. Kyndley for helping the railway, and threw her a Christmas party at Tidmouth Sheds.

Percy's crew helped to gather a good luck package for her daughter's wedding: Old Slowcoach (something old), a new set of buffers (something new), a flatbed (something borrowed), and Thomas (something blue).

Once when her sister was unable to make a visit, The Fat Controller went to great lengths to cheer Mrs. Kyndley up. She had a ride with Harold the Helicopter, then was taken by James to open the grounds at Harry Topper's Fair.

The Vicar

The Reverend is a vicar who lives at the Vicarage near Edward's branch line. When Trevor the Traction Engine was facing scrap, Edward and his crew pleaded to The Vicar for help.

The Vicar regularly holds Sunday School outings, fetes, and garden parties. He often employs Jem Cole and Trevor to give rides at such holidays.
