JohnnyMorris

Johnny Morris, born on June the 20th, 1916, in Newport, Monmouthshire, Wales, was a British actor who was the first narrator of The Railway Stories. He narrated The Three Railway Engines through Percy the Small Engine, recorded by Delyse Records. He also built upon the Reverend W. Awdry's style of repetitions, improvising and enhancing the recordings with whistles, puffs, chugs and bursts of steam.

Johnny Morris also did books 1-8 for cassette, but he did books 9-11 only for Delyse Records, Willie Rushton later re-narrated books 9-11.

Johnny Morris also appeared in "Animal Magic" and "Tales of the Riverbank".

Johnny Morris died in 1999, aged 82.
