Sidney

Sidney (nicknamed Sid) is a a forgetful blue diesel shunter. He starts his day at one location and ends up at another (not remembering how he got there). (When it was his turn for repairs at the Dieselworks) He was hoisted up and had his undercarriage removed. (Being patient) Sidney was happy to wait... and wait... and wait. He sat there happy to pass the time with any engine that happened to be visiting. Percy helped him get a new set of wheels and now he is back on track. He often takes goods trains to The Mainland.

Appearance

Sidney is a diesel engine, who has been up on the hoist in the Dieselworks for two years. He's painted navy blue with yellow lining and hazard stripes under his face. He has six wheels, and his coupling rods and front buffer beam are painted rusty orange colour like Paxton. His paint is chipped in places and shows signs of weathering.

Personality

Sidney is a very helpful diesel engine, but he is also very absentminded. He starts his day at one location and ends up at another, not remembering how he got there. When it was his turn for repairs at the Dieselworks, he was hoisted up and had his undercarriage removed. Being patient, Sidney was happy to wait and wait and wait. He sat there happy to pass the time with any engine that happened to be visiting. Two years later, he still had no wheels, so Percy helped him at Christmas to get a new set of wheels and now he is back on track, happy to be a really useful engine again.
