Thomas The Train Diesel 10 Views

General Goods

After Thomas and the Magic Railroad, Diesel 10 has appeared briefly in two specials released by HiT Entertainment. In Calling All Engines, Diesel used his claw to lift scrap metal and debris into trucks on The Fat Controller's railway. Thomas and Percy were frightened of him and made sure to avoid him whenever possible. Eventually, Thomas needed help in order to clear a wreck at the airport, and to patch a feud between steam and diesel engines. Thomas turned to Diesel 10, and convinced Diesel that helping the engines at the airport would make him the most useful engine of all. Diesel agrees, and with his help to clear scrap, the airport opens on schedule.

At the end of the 2010 feature-special Misty Island Rescue , he makes an appearance in CGI for the first time, and has seemed to have reverted to his classic, evil persona. He also appears to be sick, as smoke is seen sputtering from him and he is seen coughing. He says the steamies will end soon, hinting at the next upcoming 2011 Thomas special Day of the Diesels .

Diesel 10 (Neil Crone) is a large diesel engine with a large claw (which he calls Pinchy ) extending from his roof, and the main antagonist in the movie Thomas & the Magic Railroad . The engines say he's rated ten out of ten for devious deeds and brutal strength. When he first came to Sodor, he hated steam engines so much that he made a goal to get rid of them once and for all. He tried to murder Lady , the magic engine that brings a magic railway and the steam engines alive. Although this failed, he was able to crash Lady causing her to nearly die until she was found and taken to a man named Burnett Stone and his workshop where he spent years trying to get her to be alive again. Diesel 10 repeatedly terrorized the steam engines and Mr. Conductor in an attempt to track down Lady and the Magic Railroad.

Diesel recruited two other diesel engines, Splatter and Dodge (who he calls Splodge ), to help him find Lady. The diesels grew tired, however, of Diesel 10's attitude, and refused to help him when Lady returned to Sodor. Diesel chased Lady and Thomas until the three came to a collapsing viaduct. Lady and Thomas were light enough to make it across, but unable to stop, the track couldn't hold Diesel 10's weight and it collapsed from underneath him. causing him to fall and land in a sludge-filled barge below.
