Donald And DouglasDonald and Douglas (voiced by Mike Myers) are characters from 'Thomas the Tank Engine and Friends'. They are Scottish twin engines. The Fat Controller originally only ordered one engine from Scotland, but was surprised when two arrived. He could not tell which engine was which, and so decided to keep whichever one was the most useful. Unfortunately, Donald managed to demolish a signal box and Douglas destroyed a spiteful brake van. But the twins proved their worth in winter, when their experience with snow made them excellent snowplough engines. The other engines appealed to the Fat Controller, and he decided to keep the both of them. Donald and Douglas are very much the "odd job engines" of the railway. They perform all sorts of tasks all over the Island, including taking the Midnight Goods train to the Other Railway, performing repairs on the track and, of course, pushing the snowploughs. They have also performed one or two "special" jobs... - Donald and Douglas once pulled Thomas out of the Stationmaster's house when he crashed there.
- They later rescued him from a snowdrift when he got stuck there with the Christmas tree.
- Donald was once tricked by Duck and, as a result, gained a new friend in Dilly the duck.
- Douglas rescued Oliver from scrap.
The railway would not be the same without them. They are, in the Fat Controller's words, "Really Useful Engines".
