Biography

Thomas & Friends

The old ship used to spend most of its time at Callandale Fishing Yard on the side of the river. On a few occasions, it worked at the Norramby Fishing Village. Some time later, the wood from the old ship turned out to be useful for fire wood. The old ship was then taken to Brendam Docks, and was kept there until people found the time to chop it up and turn it into fire wood. During its time at Brendam Docks, holiday makers came to take photos of it. Salty had once told Henry why the old ship was kept there, in which the green engine suggested that its mast could be reused as the new flagpole for Castle Loch, as the original flagpole had been broken.
