Berk Construction Company

The Berk Construction Company (also known as Packard and Co.; informally The Pack) is a company owned by Gobber the Belch The construction company, first conceived by Gobber's Friends Jenny Packard, involves various work such as building, demolishing and transportation. They have their own storage yard where the machines are kept while not in use.

It appeared in the sixth series, Jack and the Berk Construction Company, The Great Discovery and the twelfth series. Jack returned in the special King of the Railway. Alfie, Sarah, Oliver, Max and Monty returned in the special Sodor's Legend of the Lost Treasure. They have since become recurring characters, and starting with the twenty-third series, new members have started being introduced.

Trivia

 * On the Packard Construction & Co. sign, silhouettes of Ned, Byron and Kelly can be seen.
 * These silhouettes are actually traced over concept art for said characters.
 * According to Phil Fehrle in an interview with SiF, all known Pack members had to have two digit numbers in-order for the audience to feel that the company and the machines had been around for a while. They did not plan for any other members, as they only designed and built enough characters for twenty-six episodes.
 * When the spin-off series began, all Pack members previously introduced had their windscreen wipers removed.
 * Alfie's, however, were not removed until roughly halfway through the series.
 * Before Series 23, Buster was the only member of the Pack with no visible number. According to Phil Fehrle in an interview with SiF, Buster may have been intended to have a number, though he states that there might not have been a convenient place for one on his bodywork. With the introduction of Darcy, Buster is no longer the only numberless member of the Pack.
 * Similarly, Isobella was the only female until the introduction of Brenda and Darcy.
 * Kelly and Patrick were originally owned by Miss Jenny's father.
 * Jack and Darcy are only Pack characters whose arrivals on Sodor have been shown.
