Bulstrode (TV Series)

Bulstrode is a barge who sulked around in harbors. Because of his constant barking of orders at the trucks, they were eager to have him loaded so he could leave. Unfortunately for Bulstrode, some faulty buffers caused Percy to push some stone trucks off of the pier and onto Bulstrode, causing him to start sinking. The trucks thought it served him right for "barging in and moaning". He is voiced by Kerry Shale in UK and US.

Due to his damage, Bulstrode was punished for being rude by being set on a beach so that children could play in him, and at long last he'd be useful. ("Special Attraction")
