So I was searching on TV Tropes and on it's TWF page I found out 2 intresting things 1, Every single engine (and probably rolling stock & non rail vehicle that has a face) is a robot. 2, TWF Thomas is a fallen hero as finding out he was a robot drove him mad and caused him to turn evil. I could be wrong but I saw it on TV Tropes so maybe not idk.
