Talk:Minor characters from Thomas the Tank Engine and Friends

Smudger = "Number Two"???

Hi. Just fixing links for Mid Sodor Railway loco Stanley/Smudger and came across an entry for him in article 'Number Two'. This sounds to me like fan fiction. Can anyone confirm whether Smudger is ever known as Number Two in the TV Series, and if so, whether the stated reason is correct? If not, some further editing is required...

This is the text from that article

In the television series Thomas the Tank Engine and Friends, the locomotive Smudger (known as 'Stanley' in The Railway Series) is known by some as "Number Two". This is because the other unknown 'Number Two' was scrapped.

Is this fan fiction, or is Stanley really known as 'Number Two'

Mr. Jolly's Chocolate Vans

This section was added some time ago, as a merge from a page created by an anon editor. It strikes me that they do not belong on this page, any more than the other non-descript wagons would.

Delete?

Quite right. Would have belonged on "Rolling Stock", but that page has even since been culled. I completely forgot about this one tho... Consider it deleted. Gonzerelli 01:49, 13 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Character reorganisation - work still required

I've just had a look at the 'What links here' for this page, and there are LOADS of redirects still pointing to this page rather than where the characters now reside. Could those responsible for the moves please complete the job by updating the redirects. Thanks. EdJogg 00:15, 16 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
