The Mail Train

"I'm Percy. I pull the mail trucks. They're red and they're wooden, and they're full of very exciting parcels!"

- Percy, Thomas and Scruff, fourteenth season

Mail Coaches are used to run in a special night train in the charge of Thomas or Percy, but in recent seasons the train is pulled in broad daylight and Percy is almost always in charge, although Oliver, James and Edward have taken the train on occasion.

Trivia

 * From Hero of the Rails onward, "SODOR MAIL" on the sides is replaced by an envelope with wings.
 * Three mail coaches are currently on display at Drayton Manor.
