Plot

Characters

Trains

Main

• Freight Nate is a fast red train. His job is hauling heavy freight. He is strong, fast, friendly and heroic. Nate is equipped with an onboard crane with a hydraulic claw at the end of his cable. He also has a set of stabilizer legs to help him keep steady while loading his cars.
• Mechanic Milo Mechanic Milo's main job is keeping the tracks in tip top shape, but he will tackle any puzzle that gets thrown his way. He is curious and dependable and highly detail oriented. Milo has a hydraulic arm mounted on his back, with a claw on the end resembling a monkey wrench. He can also fire tracks from his front bufferbeam. His cab sports robotic arms in the sides and either drive spikes into the tracks he lays or welds them together.
• Build-It Brock builds what the town needs. Brock loves to help, even though he can be a bit shy at times. Brock has a cement mixer on his back and is equipped with a set of front end loader arms on his front.
• Farmer Faye is kind and caring. Her job is to move farm produce and animals and help out on the farm with feeding and fertilizing. Faye is friendly and community-minded, always keeping tabs on every train, child, and critter in town. Her front section has a set of combine harvester reels. Faye is the only mighty Express train not to run on bogies, as she has four small driving wheels joined by a pair of two larger ones, connected by a complex of coupling rods. She overall resembles a tractor crossed with a steam locomotive. She also speaks with a strong and powerful southwestern US accent, and has a lasso in her roof to boot.
• Rescue Red is a red fire engine/EMT train and the older brother to Flicker that makes breathtaking rescues and takes care of the safety of everyone in town. He takes his job very seriously and is always focused on reciting helpful or not so helpful regulations from his handy guide, Red's Rulebook. Red has a ladder on his back and set of emergency lights atop his cab.
• Peoplemover Penny is super friendly. Her job is to move children from station to station and greets everyone in the morning with her bubbly personality. Penny can open her roof and elevate her seats to let her passengers into the open air.
• Flicker is a tiny red engine and the little brother of Rescue Red. Flicker is in charge of small rescues. He is energetic and playful, but sometimes a bit naive. Flicker features a singular light on his roof and he features a fire hose reel on his rear that can also discharge air. Flicker is smaller than the other trains, and as such, his interior is meant more for Diesel to ride in.
• Mandy Mail is a new female character that debuted in A Mighty Christmas. Mandy is very prideful and often expects important deliveries and at times will refuse help even when she needs it. Her job is to transport letters from kids and take them to either the North Pole for Santa Claus to receive or any destination around the world. Mandy joined the main roster starting with the Christmas special, and as a mail carrier, she possesses multiple compartments to carry packages and letters. Much like Flicker, Mandy's interior is meant more for animals to ride in, primarily Flap the Carrier Pigeon. She also has letter shooters.
