'''The Grey Tender Engines''' are engines that appear in the background when at [[Dar es Salaam Docks]] as well as when Thomas meets [[Nia]]. Another is also seen when Thomas and Nia arrived in Rio de Janeiro and another one was briefly seen in [[India]] pulling a passenger train that later gave trouble for Thomas when it ran over a delivery of coconuts for the main station. One of the engines were also seen in [[China]] shunting in the [[Chinese Railway Sheds|sheds]]' shunting yard and later helping rerail a flatbed. These engines are recolours of [[Henry]], the one in India shares the same whistle with [[Ferdinand]].

'''The Mean Engines''' are a pair of tender engines who pull passenger trains on the Chinese railway. As their title suggests, they were very unkind and would often talk rudely about [[Yong Bao]] whenever they passed him in the [[Chinese Railway Shunting Yard|shunting yards]]. One day, the bigger engine came off the rails as he was pulling a passenger train through the [[Himalayas]]. Luckily, he was saved by Yong Bao, who was rewarded with a new coat of paint for his heroism and the engines apologised to him. As they have only appeared in a flashback, it is unknown if they are still working on the railway.

====Basis====
  
−
The bigger engine is based on a Chinese Railways RM class 4-6-2 Pacific without smoke deflectors. Yong Bao is another member of this class.
  
−  
−
The smaller engine is based on the National Railways of Mexico GR-3 class 2-8-0 with the bell, third dome and whistle removed as well as a smaller, Chinese-styled headlamp. [[Carlos]] is another member of this class.
