for Burke in Tugs: The Return To Bigg City
Suggested by thewantedraccoon

This is my casting for a hypothetical TV revival of Thomas The Tank Engine's long forgotten, criminally underrated sister series, Tugs, by Robert D Cardona and the late great Sir David Mitton. Bare in mind these choices are all my own, feel free to agree or disagree with them, however you wish. And by all means, put forward your own suggestions as well, I'm all here for it. Just please, keep things civil One last thing to note is that I recently did a casting call for an idea I have for a new Thomas The Tank Engine series (The Adventures Of Thomas The Tank Engine And Friends in case you'd be interested in checking that out) and a lot of the actors I featured in that list show up here as well. Given how closely Thomas and Tugs coincide with each other, I personally think it works. So yeah, just bear that in mind
