1993 Collector Card[]

Annie and Clarabel (Thomas' faithful coaches) were given to Thomas as a reward for proving himself to be a Really Useful Engine. They are much loved but have both seen better days.

Annie only carries passengers. She is always pulled by Thomas and travels facing him.

Clarabel is a 'composite' coach. She has 2 sections, 1 for passengers, and the other for luggage and the Guard. Clarabel always travels facing away from Thomas.

Annie and Clarabel were probably bought secondhand from 1 of the railways on the mainland. They are wooden-bodied and were probably converted from 6 wheelers to bogie coaches after they came to the Island.
