However, the Fat Controller was last seen howling in mortal anguish as his soul was consumed by Thomas’ infernal firebox to fuel his lust for skulls in the service of Khorne. “Having an heretical engine hauling the coal train from the mine to Cudlee Fell could be a concern but I’m sure it’s something we can resolve very easily,” the Fat Controller told us, before leaving to tell Thomas to stop being so naughty or he’d be put in the engine shed for an entire weekend.

Residents of the island of Sodor have expressed concern today after Thomas the Tank Engine was corrupted by demons of the Warp and pledged his soul to the Ruinous Powers.
