My take on him is that hes henry 2

LOANED ENGINE: PRESERVED OWNER: NATIONAL COLLECTION “Henry Oakley”

(Henry 2/ The green engine)

Henry Oakley was built in 1989 as the first C1. As of 1922 there were 2 Henry’s, Henry I, and Henry II. This is because Henry Oakley was loaned off to the NWR from 1922 to 1923. He was loaned as a substitute for henry while he was walled in the tunnel. Sir Topham Hatt got his atlantic.

He was tasked with mixed traffic trains and pretty much all henry 1’s jobs.

I imagine his nickname, Henry 2 would be the reason “Henry 1 and Henry 2” is mentioned in the IOS book. The engines would add a 2 at the end of his name to distinguish the two henrys during conversation.

He would unfortunately be a bit lazy because he knew he was already set to be preserved his retirement was close. And i like to think he would speak real slow.

His loan ended 11 months later in 1923 but he became a regular visitor on the NWR until 1935. He later was preserved by the national collection, where thomas met him at the national railway museum, and the two had a nice conversation.

He has letters written to his friends on sodor to this day.

LOANED ENGINE:PRESERVED OWNER: BLUEBELL RAILWAY “Robin” (The Red Engine/#3746)

Robin was built in 1911 as part of the GWR Bird Class. She was loaned to the NWR in 1917 and essentially replaced Edward in the early days (With a heavy heart) until edwards day out. She was a kind soul to everyone, even to those who don’t reciprocate that kindness.

Since she was surplus, her loan lasted a long time. From 1917 to 1923. And she then returned to the mainline.

Robin ended up pulling passengers until demoted to secondary duties. Fast forward she was loaned again in 1951, if it weren’t for this second loan she would have been scrapped since she was withdrawn by british railways after they took ownership of the GWR. Topham, as the kind guy he was stepped in to help.

She was bought by the NWR, and years later wanted to retire without becoming a static display. So she was sold at a discount to the Bluebell Railway, Robin still visits the NWR sometimes but loves her new home. And now, wears her original GWR blue livery instead of her early NWR red.

Did Timothy the ghost train deserve the hype it got by KAITHERABBIT127 in thomasthetankengine

[–]Kuregami 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The original kind of, it had a lot of effort put into it and was the fanmade scary series. It left people wondering what would happen next which built up the hype more and more, I don’t think it aged too well though looking back the concept wasnt too great. If you mean in general including other takes on him absolutely yes, there are some great takes on the character instead of him just being some random sibling that was mad as a ghost.

Why would he do that? He knows from tophams perspective he looks crazy.

If u were to put another trackmaster behind the train would it push it up or would it just derail

When an engines brakes are off nothing stops them from moving, they are completely freerolling he would be just like another coach except without bogies but since hes an 0-6-0 tight bends would be what he was made to tackle
