Peach the Tank Engine and Friends

Peach the Tank Engine and Friends is a Thomas and Mario parody.

Peach (Mushroom Railway Engine No. 1)
Princess Peach Toadstool is the main female engine, a tank engine used for rules around the railway. She is the damsel-in-distress in most of the Mario railways. She has a love of the color pink, as almost all of her paint have a shade of color. She has a fruit named after her in the real world, and also one that appears occasionally in RPGS; the Peachy Peach.

She first appears in Super Mario Bros. and has since appeared in most subsequent games, in which she is usually kidnapped by Bowser the Diesel Engine. Princess Peach is occasionally a key supporting character of the plot, and sometimes the fast engine of the railway. Her most notable appearance is as the heroine of Super Princess Peach. She has also shown her fighting abilities in Super Mario Bros. 2, Super Mario RPG, Super Paper Mario, Super Smash Bros. Melee, and Super Smash Bros. Brawl. Princess Peach's first game as the main character, Super Princess Peach, has been released worldwide on February 27, 2006. She had also gone through many voice actresses, and is currently voiced by Samantha Kelly.

She has an affinity for the color pink and had been shown to be a ladylike and kind monarch. Princess Peach resides in her branchline along with many Toad Engines who tend to her. She sometimes is about to get her railway attacked by the Koopa Team, lead by Bowser the Diesel Engine.

Princess Peach is portrayed as Mario's love interest. She also has a special relationship with Princess Daisy, and is a good friend of Luigi, Yoshi, Toad, and Toadette. She had appeared in many sports titles as well as other spin-offs. In addition, she is almost always playable in spin-off tournaments, such as Mario Hoops 3-on-3. She is based on the Red Tank Engine.

Daisy (Mushroom Railway Engine No. 2)
Princess Daisy is the tomboyish engine of Sarasaland Railway. She has a fondness for flowers which is shown in some of the games. She is portayed as the love interest of Luigi, and is best friends with Princess Peach. She is based on the Tender Engine from England.

Toad (Mushroom Railway Engine No. 3)
Toad, known in Japan as Kinopio, is a fictional tram engine that is both a single character and the collective name of the "Tram Engines" found in the Mushroom Railway. The Toad Engines first appeared in Super Mario Bros. as seven guards that serve Princess Peach, called Mushroom Retainers. In games prior to Paper Mario, which features an entire race of Toad inhabiting Toad Railway, the capital of the Mushroom Railway, manuals referred to them as Tram Engines, but they were always referred to as Kinopio in Japanese languages.

As a singular character, Toad is known for being the long time servant and attandant of Princess Peach. He constantly tries to protect her, however, he prominently fails almost every time during the events of kidnapping. Despite his cowardice, Toad is notable for being one of the few characters who help the Mario Bros. through a variety of different ways throughout their adventures. Toad has even made his own fair share of heroic contributions as seen in games such as in Wario's Woods (a game that features Toad himself as the main hero) and Super Mario Bros. 2.

Toad is based on the Brown Tram Engine from England.

Donkey Kong (Mushroom Railway Engine No. 4)
Donkey Kong (sometimes abbreviated to DK) is the first tender engine on the Mushroom Railway. He is the first Mario antagonist who premiered alongside Mario (then called Jumpman) in Donkey Kong on the arcade. DK was an antagonist before Bowser existed. He later starred in the Mario series games which depicted him as a protagonist, though he remains a featured character in Mario spin-off games and in several Mario adventure and puzzle games, notably Mario vs. Donkey Kong, Yoshi's Island DS, and Mario vs. Donkey Kong 2: March of the Minis.

Donkey Kong is based on the Green Arrow.

Luigi (Mushroom Railway Engine No. 5)
Luigi (Japanese version, Ruiji) is the younger and taller engine on the Mushroom Railway. He is Mario's brother from the Mario series and the deuteragonist of some of the series' titles. Making an appearance in almost every Mario game and starring in three games, as the main protagonist, over time he has become a well known character. His role in games appears to be a deuteragonist to his older brother, Mario. He never seems to like going on adventures without Mario. In some games, usually in the Mario and Luigi RPG series, Luigi is simply referred to by enemies as "Mr. Green Hat" and other generic names, making him out to be somewhat unnoticed by Bowser and his minions. For example, in the Super Mario Galaxy series, if Luigi shows up at the final battle with Bowser instead of Mario, Bowser will be surprised that Luigi had come instead of Mario, who is used to fighting. Other than his color being green, he was planned to be exactly like Mario, but as his popularity grew, he developed a personality and style of his own. His jumping ability surpasses Mario's by far and he is normally depicted as cowardly and scrwany, but when he does to get the courage to step up, he can be tough and overcome his fears. He seems to be like Princess Daisy. Luigi is voiced by Charles Martinet. He is based on the GWR Painer Tank Engine.

Yoshi (Mushroom Railway Engine No. 6)
Yoshi is a Japanese dinosaur-like engine on the Mushroom Railway and Mario's best friend, as well as the tritagonist in many games. His debut was in Super Mario World. He later had his own series with several platform and puzzle games, including Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island. However, Yoshi does still appear quite frequently in the Mario series. The Yoshi series includes characters from the Mario series (usually as their baby forms) as well. He has also appeared in many of the spin-off Mario games, such as Mario Party, and Mario Kart series as well as in other various Mario sports titles. He is voiced by Kazumi Totaka in all games. He is based on the GWR Saddle Tank Engine.
