Diesel

Diesel is a black diesel engine who lives and works on Sodor.

Biography
Diesel is a diesel engine who lives on Sodor with Thomas and his friends. His best friends are Thomas, Percy, Nia, and Kana.

Personality
Unlike the original series, where he was oily, malicious, devious, scheming and full of ideas to get revenge. Diesel is portrayed as one of Thomas' best friends like Percy, Nia, and Kana. He's always trying to one-up Thomas and inadvertently causes trouble for everyone in his quest to be “the real Number One Tank Engine”, despite the fact that, in terminology used in both real life and previous versions of Thomas & Friends, Diesel is not a tank engine. It is possible that this may actually refer to his internal diesel tanks.

Basis
Diesel is based on a British Rail Class 08 diesel-electric shunter.

Livery
Diesel is painted in a black livery except for his bufferbeam.
