The Spiteful Brake Van is one of the brake vans in the Thomas and Friends franchise.
He was a troublesome brakevan who took a dislike to Douglas and purposely delayed his trains until Donald bumped him violently to teach him a lesson. After Donald ran into the Tidmouth signalbox, James was saddled with the brakevan, who continued his old tricks. Douglas, as a result, had to help James up Gordon's Hill, and subsequently crushed the brakevan into pieces.
Bio[]
The Spiteful Brakevan took an instant dislike to Douglas and purposely delayed his trains. This was until, Donald bumped the van violently to teach him a lesson.
After Donald ran into the Tidmouth signalbox, James was saddled with the brakevan, who continued his old tricks. Douglas, as a result, had to help James up Gordon's Hill. James was short of steam, and the brakevan was soon squeezed between both the Trucks and Douglas. By Douglas force, he subsequently crushed the brakevan into pieces. He was never rebuilt after that and was scrapped.
Ever since then, the Troublesome Trucks have not forgotten the brakevan incident, and they don't dare play tricks on neither Donald or Douglas. It had been an accident really, but no one told the trucks that, and the trucks thought that Douglas smashed him on purpose. Because of this, Donald and Douglas have "transformed" goods traffic on the main line quite easily.
