Dear Henry
Are you and Edward really good friends because sometimes there are times when you tend to agree with Gordon and James about him being old and out of date?
Surely good friends wouldn't question each, and does Edward ever have a bad thing to say about you that no one else knows about?

Dear Henry...
You and James share your names with Kings of England. Gordon does not. However, he remains the snobbiest, and pulls the express. How does this make you feel?

Dear Henry, How do you feel about being known as "The middle child", as in always described as smaller than Gordon and bigger than James? I don't mind, as the middle is often thought of as the most important! I have questions and you have answers 1.How did you, Gordon and James decide to form the Tender Trio? 2.How come after season 4, the three of you stopped using your famous "3 D's" line? 3.Have you caused Confusion and Delay or Delay and Confusion? Is there a distinction between the two? 4.How come you were never painted blue in the TV Series? 5.If you could be any other color, what would it be(no shades of Green) 6.Are you an enviormentalist in real life? 7.What's your opinion on being called a tree hugger? 8.Is the Flying Kipper jinxed? Was there ever a time it didn't crash? More importantly, did your Controller discontinue the service? 1. We had decided that being the Fat Controller's three most important engines, we needed to stay together. (Don't believe James though, me and Gordon are more important than him) 2. After that Harold and sandpit incident where Gordon used my line, we decided that if we couldn't remain consistent, it should no longer be used. 3. I most certainly have not! It was that stupid elephant's fault, and there is no distinction. 4. Hmph. The producers decided that it would be "Too expensive" to paint and repaint me, despite the fact that I'd earned it. 5. I rather liked being blue, and considering blue engines get the most attention, I wouldn't mind being blue (Although I like being green better!) 6. That depends on your point of view. Trees are a wonderful part of the island, but they cannot interfere with our jobs! 7. It is an unfounded claim! Besides the fact that I lack the proper extremities to hug a tree, I have already stated that trees cannot interfere with work. 8. It is not not jinxed (Though some workmen may tell you different), and I've made plenty of runs where no accident has occurred. The reason you haven't seen these is that they don't make for exciting stories, unlike the time when I pulled the Express for Gordon. The Fat Controller has not discontinued it either. Dear Henry 1 - I'm sure a lot of people have noticed that you suddenly "require" special coal again, when your new shape makes that unneccessary. Is there something we don't know about? 2 - Would you consider yourself a hippie? 3 - What's your opinion on Rule 55? 4 - Really, what was it like being inside a tunnel? 1. There is nothing you don't know about. The Special Coal was merely a plot device. 2. I'm insulted! Compare me with one who does unlawful things? I am not like Thomas, who blatantly violates cowcatcher laws! 3. Rule 55 is an extremely important rule of running any railway. We can't have engines stopping whenever they like! It's not proper. 4. Dreadfully boring. There was nothing to do except watch Edward and Gordon, and hope too much boiler sludge didn't build up. Would you like my tenders? Or if not, I may have some special 'lucky' trucks I can spare? I've been fooled with tenders once, and I assure you, I will not let you fool me like Duck did! And all trucks are bad luck! Dear Henry, Just how easy is it being green? Quite easy. I'd prefer being green much more than say...yellow! Dear Henry Are you and Edward really good friends because sometimes there are times when you tend to agree with Gordon and James about him being old and out of date? Surely good friends wouldn't question each, and does Edward ever have a bad thing to say about you that no one else knows about? Me and Edward are good friends, but there's no denying that he is getting old. dear henry, what did you do to pass time in the tunnel? Eye spy can only last so long. I counted the bricks on the wall, and tried to sleep to pass the time. With one as important as me, I still feel that the Fat Controller made a poor decision bricking me in there. Dear Henry... You and James share your names with Kings of England. Gordon does not. However, he remains the snobbiest, and pulls the express. How does this make you feel? It's not a problem, as England is no longer important to me. They've done away with Steam Engines you know! If anything, it's a problem for Gordon.

Dear Henry,
1. Gordon denies that he has Boiler Ache. Is he telling the truth, or is he trying to hide his inner anxieties with a mask of both happiness and hostility?
2. Why is it that in the TV series, when you go to Crewe to get a new shape, you come out looking exactly the same as you did when you went in?
3. You say it's not proper for engines to just stop wherever they please. However in "Henry's Forest", you stop in a forest all the time. Did your Driver notify a signalman about that "off-screen", or what was that all about?
4. How did it feel when your Driver put ashes up your nose before you sneezed on those nasty boys on the bridge?
5. Why are you depicted as always being ill, or being stuffed up, from "Magic Railroad" onwards?

Why are you depicted as always being ill, or being stuffed up, from "Magic Railroad" onwards? 1. Oh Gordon does have boiler-ache now and then, but it happens to the best of us. Gordon only gets it more because he takes too much coal. 2. I believe you need your eyes checked. I look completely different, plus feel much better! 3. My driver did notify the Signalman, but the episode had to be 4:30, so there wasn't time to show it. The Fat Controller complained that it would be necessary to show it, but it fell on deaf ears. 4. Ugh, it was uncomfortable, but worth it! Those urchins got what they deserved! 5. The writers thought I didn't have a "Quirky" enough personality, so they saddled me with that. I'm doing very well, as it's my turn to take the Express!

Well thanks for listening to me Henry. Thank you. It's always nice to meet someone who thinks me grand. Secondly, I don't believe I'm related to Gordon, as we were built in two different workshops by different builders. My old shape? It was awful. I felt ill almost all the time, couldn't build up any steam, and felt cold. And You're very welcome! Dear Henry How did you get involved with the show? I was recommended to the producers by Edward and Gordon, and I immediately got the part. With one as talented as me it was inevitable.

Henry, which do you prefer, the all-out run of the Express, or the more leisurely pace of the stopping trains?

Hello, Henry.
I'm very pleased to get to speak to you. I was just wondering, what was it like to derail Diesel in "Calling All Engines!"?

Hey Henry, I've got a couple of questions for you: 1. What's your favourite Thomas Movie/special? 2. What's your favourite Railway Series book?

Henry, which do you prefer, the all-out run of the Express, or the more leisurely pace of the stopping trains? The Express run, the wind feels so nice! Although listening to Gordon grumble about how he could do it better is somewhat tiring.... Hello, Henry. I'm very pleased to get to speak to you. I was just wondering, what was it like to derail Diesel in "Calling All Engines!"? It was a grand experience to pay that liar out! Old Square Wheels indeed! Hey Henry, I've got a couple of questions for you: 1. What's your favourite Thomas Movie/special? 2. What's your favourite Railway Series book? I would say that I enjoyed "Calling All Engines" the most, as I got more screentime there than the others. My favourite Railway series book is either "Henry the Green Engine" or "Henry & the Express", as each ends with me triumphant! How did it feel being drawn with square buffers and a brass funnel in Tank Engine Thomas Again? It was undignified, although the square buffers were temporary at the time. The brass funnel....Why I had that is beyond me.

Dear Henry,
In Sodor; The Dark Times, were you rebuilt into your old shape or was a dummy model built for which you simply provided the voice?

Dear Henry,
After what happened to you with Duck's fake six tenders, do you still have a friendly note for Flying Scotsman? Also, what do you think of both City of Truro and Spencer?

Dear Henry,
1. I'm sure we're all aware that you are fond of the forest (particularly trees). How did you feel when you learnt that coal is in fact made from trees? 2. Just exactly what happened to your eyebrows from Season 8 onwards? 3. Made any wishes lately?
