This took quite the time ;w;

From what I understand, the only engine in TTTE from the Culdee Fell railway is Culdee and his lil coach Catherine. (I may be wrong, that’s just from memory.)

I know it’s a real railway and there’s other engines irl, my brother’s been there, the photos are amazing.

[1899]

“For the sake of your passengers, you have got to keep a better look-out.” Culdee warned.

“No need - I know this railway like the back of my smokebox.” Godred declared.

“…Have you ever seen the back of your smokebox?”

“W- no, but I know it as well as the back of my buffers!”

“We don't have buffers.”

“Regardless,” Godred continued. “You worry too much, Culdee. I've got my automatic brakes, and my driver had his controls in my cab. What more could you want?”

“More common sense from you.” Replied Culdee, trying to sound stern like Ernest.

“Peh - Hah!” Godred barked out a sharp laugh. “What need have I for ‘commoner cents’?”

“That's not what I sai-”

“Honestly, Culdee. You may be named after the mountain our railway was built upon, but you needn't be as thick as it.”

“The size of our mountain cowers at the size of your ego.”

Godred only rolled his eyes.

“Juuust you wait, Culdee. Come opening day, I'll make this railway the best on the island. No. The best in the COUNTRY.” Godred declared. “I'll make sure of it - I'm taking the first train.”

“I suddenly have a strong sense of worry about opening day.”

“Why? Afraid I'll be too great an act to follow? You can always give the job to Ernest or Wilfred. Ernest may have a pin or two wound too tightly, but she at least shares my desire for perfection. Wilfred, however…” Godred paused. “He could use the toughening up.”

Culdee grumbled as he tried to make his way to the summit. An inspector from the Mainland, who didn't understand mountain railways, had insisted they have a crane trialled.

Now that's what I call Rock N' Roll!

my side of an art trade with @glowynviator !

Decided to draw your awesome Duncan because his design is too perfect. I just HAD to give him his RAF jacket because I am a sucker for anything aviation related, and I love how it ties into his punk like personality.

Got a little creative and designed him an electric guitar. I based it on Elvis' to stick with the classic Rock N' Roll theme you gave him. We'll call it his "Pop Special Tour" wink wink nudge nudge

I also threw in a little doodle of Godred because I love your Culdee Fell boys!!!
