Donald and Douglas


Donald and Douglas are my favourite engines on Thomas the Tank Engine. They are a useful link to my cultural heritage. My kids always make "Och Aye" types of comments, which makes me laugh. This morning's went "They are from Scotland" "It's freezing there" As usual the twins save the day. As an aside, the Island of Sodor Railway must be the most unprofitable transportation company in the universe (other than NASA). Every day they have major disasters (crashes, smashes, destroyed buildings and vital infrastructure, major delays, broken down engines, low productivity....). They must have a lot of government subsidies.
