- "What are you looking at? We didn't do nothin'!"
- ― The Green Troublesome Truck
The Troublesome Trucks are freight wagons used to transport cargo on the Island of Sodor.
Personalities[]
The trucks are rude towards most engines, and love causing problems, although sometimes they fail. They also tend to bicker with each other at times. But despite their tricks and their bickering, they still care about each other as well as the engines.
Technical Details[]
Basis[]
The open trucks are based on 7-plank open wagons.
Liveries[]
Each truck comes in a different livery. Both open trucks have silver frames and red running boards, but one of them has brown irises and olive green wheels and woodwork, while the other has blue-grey irises and wheels with reddish-brown woodwork.

Trivia[]
- In the original series, there were an untold amount of Troublesome Trucks in many different varieties in terms of design. In All Engines Go, however, there are only four Troublesome Trucks on the entire Island of Sodor, including two open trucks and two tankers.
- In some Motorized Greatest Moments packs and the game Magical Tracks, a teal truck has also appeared, in addition to a white truck in the Talking Nia pack.
- In the short Lighthouse Disco, two more green trucks appear, albeit faceless.
- The Green Truck's livery appears to be based off of an Indian truck seen in the episode Shankar's Makeover from the original Thomas & Friends, while the Brown Truck's livery appears to be based off of the coffee bean trucks from Brazil in Big World! Big Adventures!.
- They are not named "freight cars" in the US dub of this version, and the name "Troublesome Trucks" is retained throughout all English versions.
- In production scripts and the credits, the trucks are individuality known as Troublesome Truck #1 (the Green Truck) and Troublesome Truck #2 (the Brown Truck).
