Hugo

Hugo is a friendly rail zeppelin. He has a propeller fitted on his back.

Bio
Hugo's driver, Franz, brought him one day to Sodor when he went to see Sir Robert Norramby. Sir Robert and Sir Topham Hatt liked Hugo because he was so fast and smooth, but the engines were worried that he would replace them. So that night, the engines didn't allow him to sleep at Tidmouth Sheds and had to sleep at the Shunting Yard. The next morning, he explained to Thomas and Percy that he wasn't going to replace them because he doesn't have a coupling hook for pulling rolling stock. That evening, the engines apologized and allowed Hugo to sleep at Tidmouth Sheds.

Later on, a zeppelin passed over Sodor. This made Hugo really want to fly. He tried again and again that day to fly, but he just couldn't get his wheels off the ground. He was so disappointed, he entered Knapford without switching off his propeller. But Sir Topham Hatt explained to him that he was built to run on the rails instead of the sky.
