Jeremiah Jobling

"The passengers all said what a bad railway it was. Then they told the man how bad he was instead. Everyone was very cross!"

- The narrator

Jeremiah Jobling was once a passenger on James' train.

Biography
After James bumped the coaches too hard, it was Jeremiah Jobling who had the leather bootlaces needed to mend the brake-pipe along with the newspaper. When he refused to give up the laces, the passengers started to say it was a bad railway and called him a bad man, which pressured him into giving them to the guard. It was not revealed if they were returned.

In the television series, it appears that he has become a railway inspector and once requested James to take him to the Fat Controller for a meeting.
