“The cranes are for lifting heavy things like engines, and coaches, and trucks.” ― Thomas 's driver , Thomas and the Breakdown Train, first season
The Breakdown Train is composed of two cranes, two flatbeds, and a carriage for the workmen .
Bio The Breakdown Train is pulled to accident scenes to lift engines, coaches, and trucks onto the rails. The train is painted dark green and is manned by workmen.
Since Rocky 's arrival, the Breakdown Cranes have been rarely seen, but the works unit coach - in several colours - has regularly appeared in the CGI series.
The Breakdown Train returns in The Adventure Begins , with both cranes gaining different colours and faces while also being named Jerome and Judy . Additionally, the works unit coach is now painted orange-brown, its Railway Series livery.

Trivia The Breakdown Train's model is currently on display at Drayton Manor , although the flatbed underneath the crane's hook is absent.
