The Welsh Bird Watcher[]

WelshBirdWatcher

The Welsh Bird Watcher regularly traveled up and down the Ffarquhar Branch Line looking through a pair of binoculars. This confused Thomas, Annie and Clarabel who thought he was an inspector. Thomas decided to ask the man who said he was not an inspector at all; he was actually a bird watcher looking for a very rare bird.

Later, the bird watcher pulled the emergency cable inside Annie in a moment of excitement. He explained that he had heard the rare bird and wanted to have a look at it. The guard sternly told the man that spotting a bird was not an emergency. When Thomas tried to pull away, there was a problem; Annie had developed a wheel flat and could not move properly. All of the passengers had to squeeze into Clarabel and they were very cross with the bird watcher. Thomas was cross about having to leave Annie behind, too. The Fat Controller scolded the bird watcher who apologised for his actions.

Thomas refused to forgive the man for damaging Annie and refused to pick him up the next day which caused Thomas to be reprimanded by the Fat Controller. Some time later, the Welsh bird watcher managed to find his rare bird at Maithwaite.

He is not to be confused with the bird watcher who appeared in the thirteenth series episode, Henry's Good Deeds.

He seems to be acquainted with The Lady in the Pink Shirt as he was seen with his arm around her in many episodes.

When they stopped at the signal, she tried to calm her baby down whilst the passengers started getting annoyed at his constant noise. She had to get off at Ffarquhar with her baby. The mother and her baby waited to get back on the train at Ffarquhar. The baby continued crying every time Thomas stopped at every station. Once they got back to Knapford, the mother kept trying to calm her baby. Thomas asked the Fat Controller if he could miss his break and take the mother and her baby on a journey with no stops at every station, so they could both get some rest and thought it was a very kind idea and so had it arranged. Thomas took mother and her baby along his branch line without any stops at every station as not only did her baby fall fast asleep, but also his mother. When Thomas returned to Knapford, she decided to name him Thomas after the day's events.

The Puppet Show Entertainers[]

ThePuppetShowEntertainers

The Puppet Show Entertainers were a duo of puppeteers whom Daisy was asked to pick up by the Fat Controller to take to Harwick for a performance for the children. Thinking that they were very special performers, Daisy refused to pick up any other passengers, thinking that she should be at her best. When she picked up the performers, she refused to take their luggage van for the same reason, leaving it behind. When they arrived at Harwick, the puppeteers were disappointed to find that there were no children at the station and that their props had been left at Knapford.
