Tankers

There are other wagons which resemble the two main wagons, tar wagons and milk wagons.

Sodor Fuel wagons
The Sodor Fuel wagons are bright yellow in colour with pictures of fires in red diamonds and say 'SODOR FUEL' in big black letters. They are a common sight around the Island. The Sodor Fuel Tankers are used to transport fuel around the Island of Sodor.

Blank wagons
Wagons without any livery. Some have faces on them. They come in black and white. Their purpose(s) is unknown.

Jam Wagons
Wagons that carry jam in them. Gordon had an accident with them once. They are painted dark red with the word 'JAM' on the side in grey, however some of them are plain cream with no words on the side. They are known as jelly wagons in the US.

Cream Tanker
These wagons are white with milk churns pictured on the side.

Raspberry Tanker
These wagons are red pink with raspberries pictured on the sides.

Oil Tanker
There are many different types of oil, from petrol to power cars right down to thin oil for lubricating machinery. The oil tankers are black and say 'OIL' in big white letters. The Sodor Fuel tankers and the black oil tankers take it wherever it is necessary. There are also a number of older, dirtier oil tankers that can be seen around Sodor. The utmost care must be taken with these in case of fire, as James once found out when his tankers caught fire one day. These seem to have replaced the tar tankers in the more recent series.

D. Fusit Gunpowder Vans
These oddly-shaped trucks transport gunpowder around the narrow gauge railway. Because gunpowder is so dangerous, engines must be extra careful when shunting it. Gunpowder vans are usually shunted into the middle of trains just in case. They carry gunpowder around the Skarloey Railway, and are usually pulled by Sir Handel. They are painted black with the words 'D. FUSIT' on the side above in white and say 'GUNPOWDER' in big red letters. Luckily, there have been no accidents yet, but Duncan had an accident with them and the slate trucks once.

Ocean Trucks
The Ocean Trucks consists of an electric eel tanker truck and a hammerhead shark truck with real liquid inside.
