The Spiteful Brakevan was a troublesome brakevan who took a dislike to Douglas and purposely delayed his trains until Donald bumped him violently to teach him a lesson.
After Donald ran into the Tidmouth signalbox, James was saddled with the brakevan, who continued his old tricks. Douglas, as a result, had to help James up Gordon's Hill, and subsequently crushed the brakevan into pieces. He was never rebuilt after that, and scrapped.
Persona
Like the rest of the trucks, the Spiteful Brakevan was rude and disrespectful to the engines, especially Donald and Douglas, and incredibly impolite.
Basis
The Spiteful Brakevan was based on a standard BR 20-ton brakevan.

In the Railway Series, the Spiteful Brakevan is painted grey with "NW" on his side in white and 13 20T on his sides. In the television series, he is painted brown.
