Gregory John "Greg" Page was born in Sydney, Australia on January 16th, 1972. He is most well-known for his role in the children's entertainment phenomenon, The Wiggles. Greg was raised with a keen love of music, and this developed over the years into a passion. Another passion which also took hold of Greg was that of educating children. When he attended Sydney's Macquarie University to study Early Childhood Education, he teamed up with fellow students Anthony Field and Murray Cook to form what would become one of the World's largest children's entertainment brands. As a founding member of The Wiggles (1991), Greg travelled all over the world to entertain children in live concerts as well as recording well over 20 CDs and 22 DVDs with the group, combined sales of over 17 million CDs and DVDs and performances to more than 4 million people. In November 2006, Greg retired from performing with the Wiggles and their heavy touring schedule. He was diagnosed with orthostatic intolerance, a condition of the autonomic nervous system which regulates aspects of the body's functioning which we don't have to think about such as blood pressure, breathing, sweating, and heart rate. Since retiring from the group, Greg has enjoyed new challenges in life, and has been awarded an Order of Australia by the Australian Governor General for his services to the arts, in particular, children's entertainment, and to a variety of charities. Greg enjoys listening to music (mostly Elvis and Neil Diamond but enjoys a lot of styles), playing cricket, researching computer technologies, and documentaries and books about ancient history. He enjoys reading about religion, philosophy and spirituality, and has developed a very keen interest in learning more about life and the universe. He now practices meditation which he finds very useful for centering his life around those he loves. In June, 2011, Greg released his autobiography, Now and Then, written with assistance from Neil Cadigan. It addresses his departure from The Wiggles due to illness, as well as the struggles he faced in his personal life at that time. It also looks happily upon the time he met his second wife Vanessa, and the birth of their first child together, Lara. They now have a young son together, Cameron who just turned 1 year old on July 14th, 2012. In January 2012, at the invitation of The Wiggles, Greg rejoined his mates to tour with them in place of Sam Moran, who took on the role of the Yellow Wiggle when Greg fell ill in 2006. His return to the group was only intended to be an interim measure whilst The Wiggles sorted out what they would do with regard to replacing Moran on a full-time basis, but as it turns out 2012 will be the final year of the original lineup of The Wiggles performing together. The Wiggles are currently on a world tour, celebrating 21 years of Wiggling, and the final year of the original lineup.

Thomas is a little blue tank engine who acts as the station pilot and takes pleasure in surprising Gordon. Gordon, furious, wonders how to pay Thomas out. Next day, Thomas is late and forgets to get uncoupled after shunting Gordon's coaches. Gordon takes Thomas on a wild high-speed journey across Sodor. Thomas later resolves to never tease Gordon again. One Morning Henry is ill and Thomas is the only one available to take his train. Thomas, impatient, leaves too early and only stops when a signalman points out he is missing his coaches. Thomas goes back and is able to take the train that time, but is teased by the others for a long time afterwards. Thomas wants to see the world, but no one takes notice until Edward offers him to pull his train the next day. Thomas is excited but careless and the trucks push him down Gordon's Hill. Thomas manages to stop in time and the Fat Director tells him to start shunting trucks at Wellsworth. One Day, Thomas is shunting when some trucks push James across the Island and into a field. Thomas comes to his rescue with the Breakdown Train and is rewarded with two coaches and his own branch line.
