Philip

Philip is a diesel boxcab from America.

Bio
Philip was brought to Sodor to help with shunting. He tried to impress Gordon by showing how fast he was. He even tried to race Gordon. Now he says that he won, even though Gordon didn't actually race. He later on told the others about how strong he was. This urged James to show how strongh he was, but this resulted in causing him to dangle over a tunnel. But, fortunatly, he was saved by Philip.

He later thought that Toby was a diesel boxcab. He tried to befriend him by racing, but it overwhelmed the old engine. When Philip found out that Toby was a steam tram and enjoyed peace and quiet, the the two became good friends. When The Great Railway Show came to the Mainland, Philip, along with Sir Topham Hatt's other engines, wanted to go to. He told Thomas that if he wanted to go, he just had to put his mind to how he should compete. He also advised him to stay away from Ashima, as he thought she was trouble. Sir Topham Hatt chose him to be Team Sodor's flag carrier. At the show, he accidently got in Vinnie's way, which caused him to yell at Philip. When he was calling to Thomas, he accidently bumped into Vinnie, which resulted in a brief chase until he got covered in coal from the hopper. He then chased Philip all around the yard until during the Shunting Challenge. Vinnie was about to push him into the turntable well, but was luckily saved by Thomas and Ashima. When Thomas ended up letting Ashima win, Philip told the others that she was trouble, but the judges deciced that both engines were the winners.
