Victor burns oil instead of coal, hence his additional side tanks and lack of coal bunker.Victor is, presently, the only narrow gauge engine owned by the Fat Controller.So, while Victor's prototype is standard gauge, he, like the high profile works locos, is narrow gauge. As the Sodor Steamworks is based on high profile locomotive works (such as Crewe and Darlington), Victor is based on the narrow gauge locomotives that lived there delivering parts to different departments. Victor is based on 1173, an 0-4-0T locomotive built by Baldwin locomotive works that worked on sugar plantations in Cuba. Victor has a heart of gold and a good sense of humor and is a respected manager by all of the engines. Victor is a very busy engine, who's always on the run, fixing broken down engines, finding useful parts, and supervising Kevin. He slid off and was forced to stay in the water until he could be lifted out. Victor later joined Thomas and the others on a trip to the Mainland but soon he remembers another part of his secret when a wave broke the weak chains holding him down to the platform of a cargo ship. Victor one day remembers falling in the sea when he shared his secret with Thomas when Spencer the Silver Engine challenges him to a race around Sodor along with Diesel 10. He's a wise and friendly engine who is always ready to help his friends however, he refuses to put up with nonsense. He works closely with Kevin, whose clumsiness often drives Victor mad.

Molly's whistle sounds like four medium blasts.Victor is the manager of the Sodor Steamworks.The face was also used on her Take-Along card. This is assumed to be a prototype face, as it was never used in the television series. Molly appeared with a larger face in promotional shots in certain Thomas and Friends magazines.Teresa Gallagher ( UK/ US coming soon).Season 11 - Henry's Lucky Day, Thomas Sets Sail.She was originally painted in a GER royal blue livery from 1903-1923, LNER apple green from 1923-1939, 1945-1958, war-time black from 1939-1945, BR mixed-traffic black from 1948-1952 and East Valley Railway green with black wheels and red lining from 1953-2005. Molly is painted bright yellow with grey and red stripes, broad steel ring, polished bright, that encircles her smokebox door. She has a GN-style chimney, a flat firegrate and a variable blastpipe. Claud Hamiltons were built at Stratford Works around 1904.Īlthough Molly keeps the GER standard sized 7-foot driving wheels, she has a large 4' 9" boiler, Schmidt superheaters and a Belpaire firebox. Molly is based on the Claud Hamilton 4-4-0 of the Great Eastern Railway. Her feelings are easily hurt, and she gets embarrassed very easily, but she can have the courage to do things right. Occasionally, she can be very shy and timid. Molly is a caring and intelligent female engine. She appeared at the opening in front of Rosie. In the time of restoration of Great Waterton, Molly received news by Bill and Ben that Stanley had found Thomas. One windy day, she advised Thomas to slow down when he was taking a sailing boat for The Mayor of Sodor. In one snowy day, Molly helped James with the removal of pipes on the line. Later, when Emily had to work with Whiff, Molly was one of a number of engines who laughed at her. When Molly arrived at the depot, Edward, Henry and James were grateful to see her but Gordon was annoyed when he had to wait at a signal for Molly's and Thomas' trains to pass.Īfter this, Molly often could be seen pulling Express Coaches. Molly ran away, embarrassed, until she learned that engines at the depot needed her trucks to carry coal. The wind, however, blew off the covers in front of Gordon, Percy and Emily. Workmen decorated Molly's trucks with lanterns and cover them with tarpaulins, to make them look special to the other engines. Molly's feelings were hurt, so Thomas came up with an idea. When Molly first came to Sodor in 2005, Emily laughed at her for hauling empty trucks.
