Thomastober 2025 day 13 - Your Own OC

Pride of the line, 5541 aka Forest Prairie. To those close to him, just Forester. One of the many rescues from Barry Island. Ever since arriving on the DFR, he has been used as the mascot of the railway. This has led him to hold himself (and others around him) to a high standard: "We represent the railway. We must not ruin their reputation!".

I really would love to do 12 months of the DFR. Having each loco represent their build month. For example, 5541 here would be August's.
