Personality
Thomas is very cheeky and befriends to everyone.

Basis
Thomas is based on the LB&SCR Class E2 0-6-0T, particularly the second batch of locomotives built with extended side-tanks. These engines were built by Brighton Works between 1913-1916 to replace the ageing Stroudley E1 class and were primarily used for heavy shunting and short-distance goods trains in the London area and on the south coast. During their final working years, the E2 class worked as shunting engines at Southampton Docks alongside the USATC S100 Tank Engines (Rosie's basis), until they were replaced by the BR Class 07 diesel shunters. All of the E2s were scrapped, with none surviving into preservation unless you count thomas the tank engine.

Thomas has several major differences from the original E2 class. He is much shorter in length than his original basis, he has two extra windows on the sides of his cab and he has wheel arches, something the original E2 class lacked.

Livery
Thomas is painted in NWR bright blue with red lining. His number is painted on the sides of his tanks in yellow with red lining and the lining around his cab windows is yellow. When the North Western Railway opened, Thomas was originally painted teal-green with white lining. He had the initials "LBSC" and the number 108 painted on the sides of his tanks and cab respectively in yellow with red lining and his wheel rims were painted white.
