James the Red Engine
James the Red Engine is a fictional anthropomorphic tender locomotive from "The Railway Series" children's books by the Reverend Awdry and the TV series adaptation "Thomas & Friends". He is a mixed-traffic engine, which means he is just as capable of pulling coaches as trucks. He has a 2-6-0 ("Mogul") wheel arrangement and is engine number 5 on the North Western Railway, The Fat Controller's railway on the Island of Sodor.

James first appeared in "The Railway Series" in 1946, in the book "Thomas the Tank Engine". Two books in the series, no. 3 "James the Red Engine" and no. 28 "James and the Diesel Engines", are dedicated to James.
