Sir Lowham Hatt

"Hello there! May I have a turn?"

― Sir Lowham Hatt talking to the signalman^[src]

Sir Lowham Hatt is the jolly twin brother of Sir Topham Hatt.

Biography

Thomas was once supposed to take Sir Topham and Lady Hatt to Sir Topham Hatt's birthday party, but instead of them, he found Sir Lowham Hatt at Maithwaite. Unaware of who he actually was, Thomas mistook him for the Fat Controller, though he did notice he was acting odd, such as calling Thomas his "good friend". Sir Lowham Hatt asked Thomas to take him to the Whispering Woods, where they met Edward and some children, who Sir Lowham Hatt played hide and seek with. Thomas confided in Edward his concerns about "the Fat Controller's" weird behaviour, though was afraid to ask him himself, believing he would look silly. Thomas convinced Sir Lowham Hatt that they needed to head to the party, though he told Edward to let the children play.

Thomas eventually stopped at a red signal, where Sir Lowham Hatt disembarked the train and walked to the signal box, much to the surprise of the signalman, who also mistook him for Sir Topham Hatt. Sir Lowham Hatt played with one of the levers, sending Gordon and the Express, filled with important passengers for his brother's party, onto a branch line. Thomas was very surprised at "the Fat Controller's" odd behaviour, but again said nothing about it. They returned to Maithwaite, where the Stationmaster revealed Sir Topham and Lady Hatt went on Bertie to the party. Thomas finally asked "the Fat Controller" about his behaviour, who admitted he was in fact his brother.

The two then set off to find Bertie, who had broken down on the side of the road. The real Fat Controller berated his brother for the confusion and delay he caused with his "old tricks", before insisting they hurry to the party. Afterwards, Thomas corrected the problems Sir Lowham Hatt had caused and everybody was able to enjoy the party.

Personality

Sir Lowham Hatt is jolly, mischievous and enjoys playing hide and seek with the children. He has a reputation for playing tricks and enjoys having fun, with no concern for the confusion and delay he may cause. He seems to know little to nothing about railways; he once went into a signal box and pulled the lever, switching Gordon to a branch line. He can be said to be the complete opposite of his brother. He dresses exactly like Sir Topham Hatt but has a moustache. It is unknown how or why he got his knighthood.

Attire

Sir Lowham Hatt is identical to his brother, except for having a mustache.
