The Picture is from a Thomas Hawk
A Ford “Thunderbird”

Thunderbird (mythology)
Common depictions
Across many North America indigenous cultures, the Thunderbird carries many of the same characteristics. It is described as a large bird, capable of creating storms and thundering while it flies. Clouds are pulled together by its wingbeats, the sound of thunder made by its wings clapping, sheet lightning the light flashing from its eyes when it blinks, and individual lightning bolts made by the glowing snakes that it carries around with it. In masks, it is depicted as many-colored, with two curling horns, and, often, teeth within its beak.

BRUTE as told in Wikipedia is British Railway Universal Trolley Equipment, used for parcels.
“Thomas the Train” is a British train engine in children books and animes.
The link between the two is British Railways, but answer to the question is no.
One step forward or backward?

Brute=beast gives “beauty and the beast” which is a picture by someone called Thomas…
I just think that you can find any link to thunderbird and to whatever you want with such way of thinking. Most answers were more logically constructed. I am very doubtful. Thunderbird could be as fantasmatic as Victoria, for which we could find whatever link we wanted but for which we could never be sure of it being the answer.
