Thomas is a blue tank locomotive and the main character of the Thomas & Friends franchise and its DUPLO theme.
Background
Thomas is a tank engine who lives on the Island of Sodor. He first worked as a station pilot, taking the task of moving coaches and trucks around the yards. He longed to go beyond the station and see the world, and when he proved himself Really Useful, Sir Topham Hatt gave him his very own branch line.
