Baz and Bernie are the main antagonists of Thomas & Friends episodes, "A New Arrival" and "World of Tomorrow", which together compose the 45-minute special, "Marvelous Machinery". They are a pair of thieves who planned to steal inventions to make lots of money. They are also the former owners of Sonny, and the archenemies of Ruth, Sir Robert Norramby, and Kenji.
Baz is voiced by Bob Golding, and Bernie is voiced by Rob Rackstraw. The latter also voiced one of the Tiger Hunters from the episode, "Tiger Trouble", and one of the Crown Thieves from the episode, "Heart of Gold".
Personality[]
Both Baz and Bernie are mischievous crooks. Out of the two, Baz is the more intelligent, often having to stop the rather moronic Bernie from spilling their secret plans. Baz is noticeably more villainous compared to Bernie, willing to force Sonny to help them by threatening to scrap him and willingly abandoning Bernie to get a bigger share of profits. Baz was also willing to blame Bernie for everything to avoid getting arrested. Bernie is also the more naive of the two, as he tends to miss a few key details or state the obvious.
Biography[]
Baz and Bernie first arrived on Island of Sodor onboard Sonny, looking to steal an invention from the Technology Fair. By disguising themselves as cooks, they managed to infiltrate Ulfstead Castle.
Following a few mishaps with some of the other inventions, Baz and Bernie decided to steal the plans to Ruth's Hover-Car. Due to Sonny's disobedience, the pair chose to use Kenji as their getaway vehicle. During the escape, the pair were separated when Bernie removed Kenji's coupling and was left stranded on the Lightweight Coaches.
Baz was eventually caught by Thomas, Rebecca, Sir Topham Hatt, Sir Robert Norramby, Ruth, and the police. And when Bernie caught up, he accidentally revealed their plans. Because of this, the pair were arrested and taken away by the police. It's unknown what happened to them afterwards. However, it's possible that they were given life sentences.

Trivia[]
- Baz and Bernie are the fourth Thomas & Friends villains to be humans. The first one is Sailor John from Thomas & Friends: Sodor's Legend of The Lost Treasure, the second ones are the Tiger Hunters from the episode, "Tiger Trouble", and the third ones are the Crown Thieves from the episode, "Heart of Gold". Ironically, Bernie's voice actor, Rob Rackstraw, voiced one of the Tiger Hunters in "Tiger Trouble". He also voiced one of the Crown Thieves in "Heart of Gold".
- Baz and Bernie serve a similar role to Sailor John. They're criminals who use a rail vehicle as an unwilling getaway, and they're defeated by being cornered and arrested by the police after a lengthy chase.
