Other Drivers

The drivers, often called engineers in more recent US narrations, drive and maintain the engines, and, along with the fireman, keep the engines in control and provide a voice of reason when the engine is being difficult.

A driver's uniform consists of blue pants, a black tie, a white shirt with a blue jacket over it, and a blue cap.

Trivia

 * In newer episodes of Thomas and Friends drivers and firemen are rarely seen, if at all, and, if an accident happens, the engine is almost always blamed.
