 The Railway Series - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
The book 'James the Red Engine' appeared in 1948, the year in which the railways in Britain were nationalised, and from this point onwards the Fat Director was known by his familiar title of the Fat Controller.
The first real instance of this was in the book 'Duck and the Diesel Engine' (1958) in which an unpleasant diesel shunter arrives, causes trouble and is sent away.
In one illustration by John T. Kenney in Duck and the Diesel Engine he appears with a figure who bears a strong resemblance to C. Reginald Dalby, which Brian Sibley has suggested might be a dig at Dalby's inaccurate rendition of the character of Duck.

The engines suffered chronic failures and by 1961 the entire class of locomotives were being handed back to the manufacturer for remedial work on the engines and to cure problems with cab windows falling out while running.
Despite the locomotives being otherwise reliable the Crossley engines were still giving problems British Rail considered replacing the engines as was done with the Class 31 diesels.

Henry the Green Engine is a fictional living and talking steam engine from the children's television series, Thomas the Tank Engine and Friends, and The Railway Series books written by the Reverend Wilbert Vere Awdry and his son, Christopher Awdry.
These engines were designed to shunt and to work branch lines, and many survived right up until the end of steam on British Railways.
Awdry had bought a GWR Pannier tank engine as a spare engine for his model railway, but one of the wheels were not quite concentric, and the model had a pronouced waddle, earning the nickname "Duck" which stuck long after new wheels had been fitted.

When diesel shunters began to be introduced, the 0-6-0 type became the most common also; many of the British Railways shunter types were 0-6-0s, including Class 03, the standard 'light' shunter, and Class 08 and Class 09, the standard heavier shunters.

Daisy is retired, so you won't be able to find her in regular stores, but check Ebay for her - plenty of people are selling her on there.
It's unfortunate really, I think she is one of the better-looking engines and Thomas definitely needs more female friends.
The trains we have bought off ebay have even been played with for 6 or 7 years and although the paint is chipped and dented, the magnets are fine and the personalities are still recognizeable, so my child doesn't care.

A great red engine for your railway, although buying it with the video would be a better idea if you can find it.
James the Red Engine is supposed to have a gold dome, and gold stripes on his boiler and fire box.
I've also noticed that James, much like the other main line engines, like to grumble and huff and puff about this and that, but he and the other engines stationed with him at the Tidmouth station all prove themselves in the end, and take care of themselves and all their friends and passengers.
