"James is a 2-6-0 mixed traffic engine. He can pull trucks or coaches. He came to the island of Sodor as an 0-6-0, but the Fat Controller had another pair of wheels added in front and replaced his wooden brake blocks which caught fire on Gordon's Hill when James First arrived. James lives at Tidmouth. He is inclined to grumble but has many times proved himself to be a valuable member of the engine fleet." "James is a medium-sized engine. His six driving wheels are not as big as Gordon's and not as small as Thomas'. He has a fine scarlet coat and brass dome and likes to think of himself as a really splendid engine. This can occasionally lead to high-falutin' ideas aboiut the sort of work suitable for such a noble creature: invariably they land James in trouble."
