“Don't want new coaches! Don't want new coaches!”
― Thomas [src]
After saving Oliver , Emily was given two six-wheeled green and cream coloured coaches . They were introduced in the seventh series and were seen in every series up until the seventeenth series . They reappeared in the nineteenth series episode, Toad and the Whale .
In the fifteenth series , Emily gained two extra composite coaches. As of the twentieth series , she has gone back to pulling just two coaches.
Percy pulled one of the coaches in the nineteenth series episode, Wild Water Rescue when he was supposed to take the Mayor to the Sodor Search and Rescue Centre 's 1,000th rescue celebration.

Basis
Emily's Coaches are based on Six-wheeled Clerestory Roof Coaches used on the Great Western Railway.
However, the coaches' models are modified moulds of the Tenmille LB&SCR 4-wheeled coaches , which are the basis of the Orange and Red Coaches .

Trivia
The centre wheels on the coaches do not have flanges, so as to allow them to navigate tighter bends.
One of Emily's coaches used to be on display in Canada at Nitrogen Studios .
Bachmann HO models of the coaches appeared in the 2015 Marvel film "Ant-Man ", along with models of Thomas , Annie and Clarabel .
Emily's Coaches have fifteen windows on each side for the composite coach and thirteen for the brake coach, whereas their basis has only twelve windows on each side for the composite coach and ten for the brake coach. This is also seen on the Bachmann models, both HO and Large Scale.
