DISCOVER THE WORLD OF CHUGGINGTON Chuggington is a contemporary, action based, energetic and vibrant series for children aged 2 – 4 years. The series follows the humorous adventures of three young trainees – Wilson, Brewster and Koko – as they learn to ride the rails. Each traintastic episode engages boys and girls alike, teaching simple yet important social readiness lessons – from learning confidence, patience, independence and responsibility, to understanding the value of teamwork and friendship. With a strong community of engines and people to help and support the trainees as they sharpen their skills, Chuggington offers unlimited ACTION, ADVENTURE, LAUGHTER AND LEARNING. THE TRAINEES ROUNDHOUSE KOKO BREWSTER WILSON “Chugga Chugga Choo Choo!” A fearless, electric, streamlined passenger trainee built for high speed, who loves to explore and have adventures. “Traintastic!” “Honking Horns!” A solid dependable diesel-electric trainee built for hauling heavy loads. Brewster is sensible and will often run through a list in his head before doing a task – “check!” “Let’s ride the rails!” A lively multifunction engine with oodles of enthusiasm. Wilson is a bit of a scattertrain whose eagerness isn’t always matched by his ability to pay attention to instructions. The roundhouse is where most of the chuggers sleep. The older chuggers: Olwin, Harrison and Chatsworth sleep on the upper level, except Old Puffer Pete who sleeps on the lower level with the trainees. VEE Vee is the warm voiced announcer with the important role of keeping Chuggington running on schedule. She is contactable from every platform and always on hand to help. DEPOT The depot is nestled in the heart of the city. This vast complex contains platforms, repair sheds, roundhouses, and yards for loading, fuelling and training. There is also a clock tower that the chuggers use to tell the time. Vee usually gives the chuggers their tasks in the depot and assigns them a tunnel to go down. Four different coloured tunnels lead to every imaginable destination beyond the city. ACTION CHUGGER Action Chugger is a jet propelled super-hero train. Not only can he race along the tracks at Chug-a-sonic speed, but he can fly too! He is always available for any chugger in trouble: “I’m number one. I’m helpful, I’m strong. I get the job done”. RIDE IN THEATRE A big outdoor screen where chuggers can watch movies under the stars. Action Chugger movies are often premiered here. IRVING An adult chugger with a perfectionist streak. He is responsible for rubbish collection and recycling and can usually be found in the Recycling Yard. “Tipping… tipping… tipping”. Irving likes things to be orderly, neat and tidy. RECYCLING YARD Hoot and Toot are trainee twin shunting engines - each with a very distinct personality, which can sometimes lead to disagreements - not to mention brother and sister rivalry! Toot (green) is the more dominant of the pair. She’s feisty, a little bit naughty and confident and daring. Hoot (blue) likes to follow the rules. He’s calm, level headed and practical. HOOT & TOOT Rubbish is brought to the yard and tipped into a pit for sorting. Recycling arrives in colour-coded wagons. Glass, plastic, and cans can all be crushed in the crushing machine. The trainees love to help with this process. ROLLING STOCK YARD This is where all the many different types of rolling stock are stored. A chugger can spin the large turntable and connect up to one of the different spokes of track to couple up to the required wagon. OLWIN An older female steam engine who always runs on schedule. She loves mothering her “Little chug a chugs.” Her close friends are Chatsworth and Old Puffer Pete. She loves punctuality and good manners. OLD PUFFER PETE “Rattling Rivets”. Steam train Old Puffer Pete is the oldest chugger in Chuggington at 150 years old. He loves to “pull the youngsters’ pistons.” He particularly likes to spend time in Old Town where he grew up. He is great friends with Olwin, Vee and Speedy and enjoys sharing his wisdom with the trainees. REPAIR SHED This is where mechanic Morgan and his assistant Lori make repairs to the chuggers. There is a chug scan, to diagnose problems and a rotator for turning a chugger on his or her side allowing inspection of the undercarriage. OLD TOWN This is where Chuggington first started. The town was built for the steam age, so everything there is steam powered. The Old Town is now a bit of a ghost town, but the trainees love to go exploring there and hear tales of the old days from Old Puffer Pete and Olwin. MEET THE NEW CHUGGERS! SKYLAR Skylar is a cool crane chugger fresh out of the teacher-training academy. Good natured and patient, he takes his teaching very seriously and will stay up half the night prepping a lesson or building something incredible for a demonstration’. The trainees aspire to be like him. “It’s crane time let’s get to work!” DECKA Decka is a brightly coloured doubledecker tram with a big personality. Full of attitude, she says it like she sees it! She mainly works in the city. “Decka-lightful”. PIPER Piper is the youngest trainee – a small, modern steam engine who runs on vegetable oil. She is cute and innocent - like a little toddler finding her way in the world and is still wobbly on her wheels. EMERY “Chugger approaching!” Emery is a rapid transport chugger who zips all over town. Emery has two voices, a formal ‘announcer’s’ voice, and his normal cheeky voice. He goes back and forth between the two, sometimes in the same sentence! He likes being funny and his best friends are Koko, Brewster and Wilson.”This chugger is ready to depart”. MTAMBO Mtambo is a tour guide train at the Safari Park. He is very wise and loves to impart knowledge and tell stories of his adventures – the trainees hang on his every word.”Big and small, short and tall. On my journeys I have seen them all!”. SAFARI PARK CITY Beneath the modern, urban skyline of the bustling city, chuggers go about their work picking up passengers and making deliveries. The tracks wrap around and go through the high-rise buildings. This huge open park is on the outskirts of the city. It has tracks running all through it so that people can take a tour with Mtambo and see the animals. There are monkeys, giraffes, elephants, rhinoceros, exotic birds and lizards. DUNBAR Speedy TRAINING YARD Next door to the roundhouse is the training yard, which is used by the trainees to practice engine duties - like switching tracks, braking at speed and exercising control on bends. “Let’s get those wheels to the rails”. A shunting engine with a strong work ethic, Dunbar is chief trainer to the young trainees. Most likely to be found in the Training Yard, he is Vee’s right hand chugger. He likes discipline. McAllister Speedy McAllister is a steam engine and a friend of Old Puffer Pete and Olwin. He can appear tough but beneath his gruff exterior, he has a kind under carriage. Speedy is the exact opposite of his name! ICE CAVE Deep in the base of the mountains is a spectacular ice cave where chuggers can cut down icicles with an ice-harvesting wagon. CALLEY Calley is the rescue and breakdown chugger. “Breakdown Chugger coming throoough!”. She’s like a big sister to the trainees. One of her best friends is Dunbar. Calley ‘absotootly’ loves rescuing! ZEPHIE Zephie is a young scissor lift trolley car who runs errands and is most likely to be found in the Repair Shed and around the depot. She’s big enough to carry two people. Zephie is excitable, giggly, girly and fun. Calley’s rescue shed A siren goes off when a chugger is in trouble and Calley’s monitor tells her what’s going on. With the nudge of a button, Calley drops down to an underground chamber, housing a set of service wagons such as a refuelling car, fire service car, and a break down rescue wagon. Chatsworth A hard working diesel engine with a nervous disposition. His best friends are Harrison and Olwin. Chatsworth likes things to be peaceful and doesn’t like anything upsetting his routine. He is often heard saying “Ohh, I think I’m going to overheat”. THE QUARRY Located on the mountain, this is where stone is mined. The rock is then carried up in wagons, through the steep tunnels, to the quarry platform for dispatch. HARRISON A multifunction engine, smooth as silk and considered to be the fastest chugger in Chuggington. He likes being admired and being the centre of attention. “I’m looking good”. BORDER BRIDGE This is a huge stone bridge that spans a rocky ravine on the border of Chuggington. It is traditional for a newly elected Mayor to enter Chuggington via the bridge in a ceremonial carriage. Hodge A chugger pick-up truck with a “seen it all” attitude. Hodge is made of spare parts (hence his name). He knows lots of interesting facts about Chuggington. He likes collecting objects and trivia. FROSTINI “Magnifico!” Frostini is the slick ice cream chugger usually found inventing new gourmet flavours in his Ice Cream Factory. Glamorous and outgoing, he is a real showman, and has his sales banter down pat. Everyone loves ‘The Great Frostini!’ He loves creating taste sensations and dislikes imperfection. FOUNDRY Metal is melted down and cast into things like wheels, axles and track sections. The process is mostly automated and chuggers can watch the metal being poured, shaped and hammered from behind viewing windows. ICE CREAM FACTORY This is on the outskirts of Chuggington and has lots of rooms within it for mixing, freezing and labelling. It’s a brightly coloured, whimsical place!
