Nigels PlaRail Capsule - Thomas Vehicles

I'm going to start a bunch of threads broken down into categories of all this capsule stuff I got the other day. As I go through all the stuff I will add to the posts as I find new items not already up here 🙂

Fergus (the first one) is actually not a road vehicle - He looks like Trevor, but runs on rails (and has buffers for rolling stock). Are Oliver (excavator)'s treads rubber? They don't appear to be plastic. And, does Reg have wheels or is he just stationary?

Thanks for the info, I'm not really a Thomas expert, just slowly becoming one it seems. I wasn't sure about Fergus, the fact he is motorised hinted he may run on the track, but I wasn't totally sure. The Excavator does have rubber tracks and Reg does have some wheels under his skirt 🙂

Well, Bertie, Elizabeth and Terence (and a few others) still had the mechanism and rear coupling in this format, despite not being engines. I can easily see how you got confused.
