This article is about the Great Western Engine. You may be looking for the excavator. |
Bio
Oliver is a trustworthy, tenacious, and plucky little green engine. He escaped from from his old line after his old manager sent him for scrap. Luckily, Douglas found him in time and he escaped to the North Western Railway and was given an overhaul. He now works happily on Duck's Branch line with Duck, Donald, and Douglas. Oliver is an engine who is willing to admit every day is a learning curve. When he was still new to Sodor, he had issues doubting himself. But later, He proved tank engines could be just as useful as tender engines. Oliver also has two autocoaches and a brake van who he shares with Douglas.
Basis
Oliver is based on a Great Western Railway 0-4-0 14xx auto tank engine.
