Bio

When Harold was first seen, he claimed that "railways are slow and out of date", but was proven wrong by Percy after Percy beat Harold in a race. When Thomas's brakes failed and became a runaway, he helped an inspector catch up to him, and stop. He also brought Santa Claus to the Christmas Party in 1986. He has also made good friends with Duck after he rescued an injured sailor.

Harold was based at the airfield at Dryaw until the construction of the Sodor Search and Rescue Centre. Since then he has joined the team and has gone on several missions such as searching for Thomas, rescuing Bertie from the Shake Shake Bridge, rescuing sheep, and climbers, and finding a lost elephant.

Persona

Harold speaks in a manner reminiscent of an RAF pilot, using terms such as "wizard" and "old chap" in conversation. Harold somewhat tends to be full of himself as he feels that "railways are slow", but he always gets his comeuppance in the end.

Livery

Harold is painted white with red lining.

In Thomas the Slender Engine

Harold inhabits Harold‘s Airfield with Bertie, Belle, Flynn, Splatter, and Dodge.
