Children’s animation Tugs was created by the Thomas and Friends team and filmed in the same studios. The show was about two tug fleets, the Star Fleet and the Z Stacks, who compete against each other in the Bigg City Port during the 1920s. The Star Fleet are honourable and hard-working, the Z-Stacks are underhanded and devious.
