Thomas is a tank engine who works hard at the Docks on the Island of Sodor. She’s a cheeky little engine with six small wheels, a short, stumpy funnel, a short, stumpy boiler, and a short, stumpy dome.
She’s a fussy little engine, too, always pulling trucks loaded with cargo straight off the ships and out of the yard like she used to at on her old railway.
Confused?
Well then, welcome to my AU, dunno what to call it yet, open to suggestions!
Now as to why Thomas is female: In a caption on Wilbert Awdry's photograph of the first Ffarquhar Branch layout, Thomas is referred to as female in a sentence saying "and she's away".
And the engines in the rws didn't get numbers until book 6!
So yeah!
