** Sir Topham Hatt also feels like this. In fact, some fans thought he was actually going to tell Thomas he had had enough of him and intended to replace and sell him (or at least send him back to the mainland in disgrace). Though to be fair, his attitude throughout the special stems from the fact that Thomas is causing tremendous amounts of damage both physically and financially (meaning Sir Topham Hatt has to pay for repairs to the damaged coaches, listen to complaints from angry passengers, and deal with the repeated delays to the construction of the new branch line) and is [[NeverMyFault refusing to take responsibility for his actions.]] Given that, it's [[JustifiedTrope understandable that Sir Topham Hatt seems sterner than usual.]] Then again, he ''was'' too harsh and unfair towards Thomas after the dynamite incident, not letting him explain that he was trying to save everyone and cruelly sent poor Thomas to his shed in disgrace, and giving off the impression he was just about ready to get rid of him.

* RuleOfSymbolism:
** During the climax, as Sailor John tries to escape on Skiff in the early morning hours, notice that [[RedSkyTakeWarning the sky is red]]. To sailors, a red sky in the morning is a sign that there are rough seas ahead. Sailor John, however, still persists in his effort to escape, even as Skiff starts taking on water and when there is a big wave coming at them. This ultimately led to Sailor John losing the treasure to the bottom of the sea and getting arrested. Thus it can be said that the sky symbolized how Sailor John's effort to make his getaway would fail.
** For most of the movie, Thomas' iconic Number 1 is covered in grime, symbolizing how he is in disgrace, which is not helped by his attitude that caused his current state. In the climax of the film, after his CharacterDevelopment and being humbled, Thomas goes after Sailor John, and ends up in the sea...which washes the grime away, displaying his number once again, and showing that he has earned it back, which is helped by the camera focusing on it after he's fished out of the water.
