Summary: SATLY Maties!
Comment: Great add in toy for Thomas and Friends Wooden Railway. My son was 1 when we started his collection and they have been a favorite ever since. When they like the trains it cuts down on a lot of other bulky toys so the clutter is minimal.

This piece named Salty is fun plus we like to do the voice! He has a cute cheeky grin on his face. The paint is durable and the plastic pieces are minimal and will be great addition to your Thomas collocation.

Here's a TIP for saving money on Thomas and Friends - If you have a Michaels Craft Store close by and get the Sunday circular they usually run a 40 percent off coupon in the paper. I am told they do not do this in all markets but here they do. We take ours into the store and receive 40 percent off of the trains which in some cases on some trains it is a considerable savings. You may want to try it.

Summary: Yo Ho Ho and a Bucket of Prawns...
Comment: My son and I LOVE to sing the Yo Ho Ho song!

Salty is my son's newest acquisition in the Thomas line. He had Salty in the small diecast metal form, but wanted the wooden version so it can chug on the wooden railways.

Salty is an older diesel who loves to tell tales of the sea. He will occasionally work in the quarry and other areas on the Island of Sodor, but is happiest down by the docks.

Salty has two adorable bottom teeth, and is very good natured. My son created water on paper to pretend that he's down by the docks, and includes Cranky and the Aquarium Cars for pretend play.

Very nice--and affordable!--addition to the Thomas series.

Summary: Salty the seaside diesel
Comment: If your child likes playing with Thomas & Friends trains, Salty is a red diesel engine, and like Mavis, he has black and yellow stripes around his face. Salty was brought to the Island to help Mavis, Bill, and Ben shape up the troublesome trucks in the quarry. He did such a good job of doing it, no other engine could do it.

Salty will ocassionally work in the quarry and other places on the island, but since he has the personality of a sea captain, he likes to work at the Brendam Docks. In fact, Sir Topham Hatt thought that Salty did such a good job, he gave him a new job at Brendam Docks. Salty now works with Cranky the crane, loading and unloading various cargo. If you need an engine to help you with heavy-duty jobs, I recommend adding Salty to your collection.

Summary: We Love Salty!!!
Comment: What can you say. Some of the Engines just sit there, but Salty has all this personality! He is a hard working diesel (who doesn't have some of the personality problems of the other diesels :-) and he loves the sea. He also loves to talk about all the places he has been. "Have you ever worked Marsaille?"

Beyond that, Salty is a ruggedly built little train that small kid's adore. Certainly he is a favorite with my 3 year-old son. And even my 5 year-old daughter will talk about his adventures.

We really like the "Percy's Chocolate Crunch" book and tape because it includes the fun story "Salty's Secret". "Yo ho ho and a bucket of prawns... the tiller spins and the captain yawns."
