Beppe is a coach from Italy who works with Lorenzo.
Biography
Thomas & Friends
Beppe is Lorenzo's small coach - he loves to sensationalize situations and idolises Lorenzo. Beppe and Lorenzo are like an operatic double act and often break out into song. Beppe sings the bass notes to Lorenzo's tenor voice.
Personality
Beppe is well-behaved and always in a musical mood, and when Lorenzo gets singing, he doesn't hesitate to join in, though the two usually choose to do so regardless of their surroundings. Much like any coach, Beppe doesn't take nonsense from Lorenzo lightly, and the tender engine's curiousity and quest for fame usually ends up annoying him in one way or the other. Like other small characters, Beppe perfers thinking of himself as useful despte his size, and always has Lorenzo's back in the end, though he also sees Gina as a good substitute.
