Stephen Topham Hatt [1] is the grandson of Sir Topham Hatt and brother to Bridget Hatt .
Biography
Stephen had never grown up to be the controller and has always remained as a young boy. He visited Toby on his old railway while he was on holiday with his family. He was amongst the boys who teased Daisy about bull's-eyes and was also amongst the boys who teased Sir Handel about George . He and Bridget helped Toby discover an old castle . He thought that Edward was the strongest and the best after Edward pushed Duck , Gordon , and their trains into Knapford Station. He and Bridget flew a kite, which got blown away, but Thomas , along with Charlie , Percy , Edward and Emily retrieved it.
He and Bridget later caught chickenpox, convincing Henry that engines could catch chickenpox as well. To cheer them up, their grandfather took them for a day out in Winston . Stephen attended Sir Robert Norramby 's Christmas Lunch and the opening of the Harwick Branch Line with the rest of his family.
Once, he, along with his sister and grandfather were supposed to take a tour around Arlesburgh Harbour on Skiff ; however, the rail boat thought he saw a mermaid and went to sea with just Sir Topham Hatt aboard, to Stephen and Bridget's distress. Eventually, Harold and Captain found them. Another time, he was part of a group of VIPs that Hugo took on a rail tour from Knapford to Vicarstown .
