Grumpella

Grumpella appears in the 1991 adoption of the children's book, The Little Engine That Could. She doesn't appear in the book or the 2011 film adoption. She is a white bird in a pink bonnet. She is one of the passengers of the birthday train. She is mostly in a grumpy mood and acts as her name suggests. Sometimes, she ends up in a quarrel with Rollo, convincing her there won't be any engines to import them. Their quarrel ends when Jebediah is making an announcement that Tillie is delivering the birthday items to Eric's house. She, Tillie, Chip, and the other toys survive the mountaintop after an avalanche and reaching Eric's home.
