Top Ten Thomas & Friends Characters That Need to Return

The Top Ten
1 Duke

This character also only had 1 season. He appeared in season 4. In season 5, his model was remade into Bertram, so his model was gone. But now that the CGI series is here, he can make a comeback. Please do this, Andrew Brenner. We all want him back. Some people are actually afraid that if Duke does come back, his personality will be out of character. But considering we have a trusted head writer now, I don't think we do have to worry about that.

Duke is a great character, with untapped potential. Ditch Freddie and bring back one of the most loved characters. And if Duke doesn't reach the Number One spot, well, that would never suit his grace!

Much needed role model to the other narrow gauge engines! I hated how Skarloey was made out to be the "wise old engine". Duke would bring back a much needed tone to Thomas and Friends as a CGI series.

Duke was an awesome character. And he still is. But HIT probably couldn't render old Granpuff in CGI because they only visited the Talyllyn Railway. Duke, basis, along with Mighty Mac's and Freddie's, are on the Ffestiniog Railway.

2 Elizabeth
3 Boco

His name is derived from his co-bo wheel arrangement or C-B for short and that is an AAR for both diesel and electric locomotives unlike steam locomotives with the Whyte Notation. Imagine also even if they also even made a locomotive with a D-D wheel arrangement short for do-do to be named and called "Dodo" itself like used to represent an old-fashioned and ineffective person or thing itself just like that flightless bird that went extinct by the year, 1681.

This guy has been introduced in season 2 and hasn't appeared since season 5. It's a shame this character's been missing for about 12 seasons and a lot of people miss this guy too. So Hit, please bring him back.

Kick BoCo out of the contenders! Get him to the top of the list right now!

Boco has got to come back! He's a major part of Thomas and friends!

4 Molly

Molly is a character which every kid can relate to! Everyone wants to be special so Molly’s character is perfect! Also, Molly needs more developing. It was a shame she stopped appearing after the transition to CGI because she could have become a better character. Please bring her back and develop her. She is a character who can be used to show life situations in a fun way.

She hasn't been explained enough but really captures our hearts! She would be perfectly explained if she returned to the series!

One of the only HIT characters that I care about.

Yes yes yes yes yes

5 Terence

And make his face less ugly.

6 Madge

Madge need to return in season 22 with her red livery.

7 George

Could George work with Jack and the Sodor Construction company in "Digs and Discoveries? "

8 Dennis
9 Smudger

Smudger: Listening Dookie who Worries about a Few Returner

He should definitely return

I wonder what happened to him when the MSR closed.

He would be a really nice character to return

10 Lady

She is the main train not shown much but she gave them life she is islands of sodors mother nature

She is one of the cutest characters that I ever seen

The Contenders
11 Stepney

I know a good voice over for Stepney the Bluebell engine; Lizzie Waterworth.

Lizzie would give Stepney her Bello voice. (Bello is a character from a Spanish/British cartoon called Jelly Jamm)

If Lizzie isn't available, I think Mathew Baynton from the classic series of Horrible Histories should give him a Cockney accent.

I sure hope Stepney will come back. He could play a major role in the new Thomas series: Big World, Big Adventures!

I hope Stepney will be back soon. I haven't seen him in years!

The blue bell engine

12 Ned

He was replaced by Marion

Clumsy but lovable.

13 Neville

If he does return, make him less ugly. His face and design make me want to puke.

This might seem wired but neville is one of my favorite characters

If Neville the C1 appears in CGI, he should talk with a Welsh accent.

I remember watching this when I was little

14 Fergus

This character has had only 3 episodes, and all in season 7. It's bad enough that a character has just 1 episode, but 1 season is something different. I did see that he appeared in later magazine stories judging by the other characters that I saw that were introduced in later seasons.

Of course Fergus should return. If they could bring back Daisy then surely they can bring back Fergus.

Being back Fergus! Do it right!

15 Freddie

Ripped off both Ivo Hugh and Duke. I hate him.

Don't bring him back. HE'S TERRIBLE.

He should never return.

16 Mighty Mac

I loved this narrow gauge engine because their confusion between which route to take was funny in a way. If they might return in the 23rd series, I expect Lewis MacLeod would give Mighty his Zed the Zebra voice and Keith Wickham would give Mac his Gary the dromedary voice. (Zed and Gary are two animals off 64 Zoo Lane)

Mighty mac is a two face character and I like him

One of the only HIT characters that I care about.

The Chang and Eng of Thomas and Friends.

17 Murdoch

He's based on Evening Star, the LAST steam locomotive built before they were all scrapped for diesels. His class was considered the zenith of steam technology, and it's not hard to see why. 10 driving wheels! Amazing

18 Class 40

Yes I want him to come back

19 Kelly

The Pack are some of the only HIT characters that I care about.

Kelly is the Pack's leader. He needs to return.

20 Arthur
21 Trevor

Don't Tell anyone who has Trevor the traction engine

I'm glad that the traction engine (Trevor) had returned to T&F in CGI.

Nigel Pilkington/ Chris Ragland do an excellent voice for him, but I was expecting Enn Reitel to be Trevor's voice!

He is returning in season 20.

22 Billy

Dear God I hate him.

23 Hank

He is a big steam engine and he's blue and strong

24 Bulstrode

If Bulstrode returns to the series, I expect David Holt shall give him his grumpy, nasal voice or if Harry Enfield voices him, he should make him sound like Kevin the teenager!

25 Buster

And make his face less ugly.
