Dear Friends,
To hear James the Red Engine talk sometimes you might have thought that he ran Sir Topham Hatt (our Fat Controller)'s Railroad/Railway on his own.
He certainly needed no help from diesels - or so he imagined.
The other engines were more sensible and realized that diesels could take some of the weight off their own couplings.
But now, Sir Topham Hatt/The Fat Controller tells me that James has had a change of heart.
These stories tell you how it happened.
