The television series Thomas & Friends features many fictional people and animals who interact with the engine characters and form the basis for many of the varying storylines. The following list describes the more notable people and animals that have appeared. A few have appeared in more than one episode, but most appear just once.
A number of the characters originated in The Railway Series of children's books by Wilbert Awdry. Where appropriate, cross-links are provided to allow access to the non-TV side of the character in question.
Sir Topham Hatt, also known as The Fat Controller, is in charge of most the engines on Sodor, and has a great deal of influence on the Island. He is firm but fair, and is an extremely complex character. He often acts as a father-figure to the engines of Sodor - when an engine is upset he speaks to them kindly, and he treats all his engines equally. He does not stand for nonsense, but is also forgiving. When an engine misbehaves, as they often do on his railway, he is willing to allow them a second chance if they are truly sorry.

The Dutchess and the Duke - Reservoir park, this is ending song in Entourage episode 'Murphy's Lie' Lyrics: Well I barely woke this morning on the cold ground by the sea. And I opened up my eyes and those black clouds are all I see. And I wonder if someone's up there, If the black clouds can see me, And the clouds keep rolling on in The supersonic jet plane taking people everywhere. Well, i wish that i could go there, I wish I could be somewhere. But i know I'm still right here, And I know here is still nowhere, And the clouds keep rolling on in. Well tell me, what am I gonna do? Tell me, what am I gonna do? To make it clear. So I can get my head straight, I can see the sun. Well I went down to have my fortune told. Well I went to see the gypsy to have my fortune told. She said "...
