Okay, so I did some serious thinking and decided I can make Sir Topham Hatt's Angel design better by making some edits to his ears and eyes. For his ears, I decided to make them pointy and adding red-orange speckles onto them as well as giving them a tuft of red hair on top of them, which I vaguely based on the ear tassels of red squirrels, even though Sir Topham Hatt is not a squirrel and is supposed to be a squid/kraken type of Angel. I just thought redesigning his ears would make him appear more cute and creature-like instead of giving him normal humanoid ears. I also redesigned the eyes to have pale blue pupils as a way to represent how he died. Sir Topham Hatt had tuberculosis (I'm pretty sure) and sometimes the pupils of people with tuberculosis lighten up as a result of the infection reaching the eyes. Also, from what I know, when people die, they're eyes turn blue from the decomposition process, and even the pupils may also become paler.

⚠️ SPOILER WARNING AHEAD FOR MAN VS. TRAIN 5!!! ⚠️
(if you HATE SPOILERS, LOOK AWAY from this paragraph now!!!)


Man Vs. Train 5 was recently released near the end of last month, but it wasn't the final establishment of the mini-series. It starts with Thomas chugging down The Valley of Gehenna (or otherwise the 'pride' ring) where the souls of Barney, Baby Bop, BJ, Arthur, and Peppa Pig were being continuously tortured (Barney, Baby Bop, and BJ's eternal punishment was extinction, Arthur's eternal punishment was being constantly bitten by ants, and Peppa Pig's eternal punishment was residing in a land made of pork products, and possibly forced cannibalism off-screen.) Thomas continues to chug his way through Gehenna, until he Stumbles upon Lucifer. Lucifer seems shocked that Thomas has entered Hell, and questioned Thomas on why he was taking so long. He guessed Thomas either had signal failure, someone was on the tracks, or ran over a cat. Thomas then angrily corrects Lucifer by saying it was an accident, and it shouldn't concern him in which he insists that Pat has to answer for his sins because he was responsible for the death of The Fat Controller (or 'Normal-Sized Controller as Thomas soon realized saying 'Fat Controller' is disrespectful as Sir Topham Hatt did not enjoy being called that) and is a threat to everything Thomas holds dear. Thomas soon demands for Lucifer to give Pat to him, and nobody has to get hurt. Little did Thomas know, Lucifer already got annihilated by Postman Pat, and as it turns out... He was talking to Pat this whole time.

So, as far as I know, Sir Topham Hatt is either not in Hell or is located in a different area in Hell. I am pretty sure Sir Topham Hatt isn't a sinner or in Hell at all. In fact, I'm about 99-100% positive that he is up in Araboth (or otherwise the 'humility' ring) having the happiest afterlife imaginable as he will be reunited with the perished trains, Lady Hatt (although I'm not sure if she died off screen or not, but it is implied she is probably dead because almost everyone on the island was sick or severely injured) and perhaps he even adopted Jess (Pat's cat) I know Sir Topham Hatt had his bad moments in life, but overall, he was compassionate, forgiving, charismatic, and genuinely good-hearted man to everyone around him. So, there is really no reason why he wouldn't go to Heaven, the only sins he did was probably gluttony, although he likely redeemed himself in the eyes of the great Elohim when he was sick with tuberculosis and stopped overindulging in so much food. Some may argue that 'he is rich, and the bible says a camel is more capable of fitting through the eye of a needle, than a rich man will enter the kingdom of God, so he can't go to Heaven!' I can see where y'all are coming from, but I joined Judaism about 3 years ago, so I no longer go by that doctrine. I can see why the verse from the book of Matthew can apply to Topham, as he is a Christian character, but even then, I still believe he can go to Heaven as long as he uses his wealth for good, and not evil. Also, he is not a slave owner that several theories claim, he would NEVER force any of his trains to work for him, unless they choose to do so, in fact, the trains love him dearly especially Thomas. Anyways, in Man Vs. Train 6, I hope he finally reappears as a handsome angel that will join the battle with Thomas, and they can finally put an end to Pat and bring Harmony to the island of Sodor. Although, Sir Topham Hatt might lose a few eyes or limbs during the battle. Note: He can regenerate his limbs, as he is a squid-type of angel.
