Personality
When put in charge of the North Western Railway, Thomas became incredibly bossy and difficult to handel. He did mature and get humbled by the incident.

Arrival on Sodor
Thomas was the station pilot of Knapford in 1946.

Rescuing James
Thomas was puffing down the tracks with a train of trucks. He noticed a burning smell, and then saw James puffing down the tracks with a train of oil tankers on fire. Thomas told James to uncouple from his train when he saw a siding, but James shrugged Thomas off. Thomas continued to chase James down.

Thomas than came up with an idea, and went up to Ferdinand. He said told Ferdinand not to go into a siding, but Ferdinand rebelled. This was what Thomas had actually wanted however, as Ferdinand went into the siding and was hit by James' train, thus killing the engine. Though Ferdinand died, James was safe, though derailed.

Becoming the Fat Controller
When the Fat Controller was fired as controller of the railway, Thomas was put in charge of the North Western due to rescuing James. As controller, Thomas made the engines do the same jobs every single day, and was incredibly rude to them. The engines didn't enjoy that, and formed a rebellion.

Getting knocked down a peg
James asked Thomas if he wouldn't mind a race. Thomas accepted the challenge, and the 2 (with some other engines as well) started racing from Knapford Station. Little did Thomas know that James and the others were planning to bring Thomas down to their level and teach him a lesson. Percy diverted the points, which sent Thomas crashing into some trucks at the quarry.

Attempted Suicide
Seeing no other way out, Thomas tried to drown himself. Percy arrived before Thomas rolled off into the water, but was to late to stop him. Thomas wasn't successful in drowning however, as the water was to shallow. Thomas broke down, and admitted that what he had done was wrong. The 2 made amends, and Thomas was later helped out of the water.

Attack on Tidmouth Sheds
Thomas and Percy went to Tidmouth sheds, where James apologised to Thomas for the crash. Thomas accepted the apology, and said that they were the steam team and nothing could stop them. The engines all blew their whistles with pride. A mysterious whistle then sounded, stopping them. 98462 than started a fire around the sheds. To save themselves, the engines ran into the turntable well. Though they were safe, the sheds were burnt badly.

The Fat Controller Returns
Jake arrived at the sheds. Thomas said hello, and was surprised when the Fat Controller stepped out of the bus. Thomas exclaimed that the Fat Controller was back. Thomas asked if he was back permantly, to which the Fat Controller responded yes. The engines celebrated their controllers return.

Ambushing the criminals
Thomas found 98462 and Lorry 1 in a shed. He asked them to explain about why they attacked the sheds, to which 98462 responded by bumping Thomas off the rails. The other engines luckily helped to stop the criminals, and the Fat Controller left to talk to Billy Smith.

Race with Percy
One morning at Knapford, Thomas and Percy decided to have a race to Vicarstown Station, seeing as they were both headed down there. During the race, a cloud of steam started coming from Thomas, and he was slowly brought to a hault. Percy offered to get help for Thomas, and went to the nearest signal box. Ryan soon arrived to collect Thomas. He brought Thomas to the steam works.

Return to Station Pilot
Thomas had no choice but to return as Knapford Station pilot. While shunting coaches, Thomas accidentally crashed into a coach, breaking the glass. Thomas then noticed a familiar sighting, S.C Ruffy. Thomas was flabbergasted by the troublesome trucks return, and asked S.C Ruffy where he had been. S.C Ruffy explained and expressed that he was sorry for what he had done in his past. Thomas was a bit apprehensive to accepted S.C Ruffy due to his past behaviors. That night, Thomas told the other engines about S.C Ruffy, and how Oliver had once pulled him apart.
