Vinnie (Thomas & Friends)

Vinnie is the "main antagonist" of the 2016 film Thomas & Friends: The Great Race. He is a streamlined North American tender engine, and is based off of the Canadian National Railway's U-4-a 4-8-4 6400.

Why He's A Big Bully

 * 1) For starters, he is a very rude and mean spirited character, and treats almost everyone around him like dirt, even if they did nothing wrong.
 * 2) * In one scene, he bumped Thomas while he was moving, and called him "Shrimp".
 * 3) * To add salt on the wound, he is very short tempered, as he bullies Philip for something that wasn't even his fault.
 * 4) One of his infamous quotes is "Yeah, well you better watch where you're going, shorty! Or you might end up being recycled," which is just cruel and very mean spirited.
 * 5) He is very competitive as well, as he will do anything to win a competition, and he'll even go as far as to cheat.
 * 6) He is shown to be very destructive, as while he was chasing Philip, he literally bashes through Gina's flatbeds.
 * 7) In another part of the scene, he bumped Philip so hard he nearly fell into the turntable well.
 * 8) Despite getting his comeuppance as mentioned in RQ#3, he showed no remorse for any of his actions.

Redeeming Qualities

 * 1) His design is pretty cool.
 * 2) John Schwab did a great job voicing him.
 * 3) At least Vinnie got his comeuppance when Thomas and Ashima saved him from Philip, causing him to crash into a pylon.
