From TrainSpottingWorld, for Rail fans everywhere
(Redirected from Mayor Osgood Bob Flopdinger)

Mayor Flopdinger is a fictional character from the American children's TV show Shining Time Station. He is the mayor of the fictional town of East Shemp. He is known for being rather flighty, and not paying much attention to anyone but himself. He also has a hard time reading any type of speech, always stumbling over words.

Clothes

  • Similarly to J.B. King, Mayor Flopdinger often wears very offical looking clothes, such as suits.

Relationship with other characters

  • Mayor Flpdinger has met almost every character from all three seasons of Shining Time, except for the Jukebox Puppet Band and Mr. Conductor.
  • While the Mayor has met the kids, he doesn't normally talk with them, preferring to talk with Stacy Jones or any other adult.
