Bio[]
Before coming to Sodor, Zach worked on a railway in Wales. After a major failure, Zach was to be sent to a scrapyard. When he heard about it, The Thin Controller saved and restored him. Now, Zach works on The Skarloey Railway pulling passengers and working as a shunter with Fred. When he started work, Sir Handel was jealous. He wanted to be the only blue engine on their railway. When Sir Handel broke down on his passenger run, Zach was sent to help and quickly changed Sir Handel's thoughts about him. After that, Zach became great friends with not only Sir Handel, but the rest of the narrow gauge engines. That made Zach feel right at home.
Basis[]
Zach is not specifically based on a real locomotive, though he does slightly resemble a Kerr Stuart Darwin. His unique design originated from a drawing of Duncan, which was later turned into the earliest known depiction of Zach.
