The Goods Engine

The Goods Engine is a steam locomotive who makes several cameo appearances, most notably in High Tide, where the bridge crossing the canal collapses and the engine lands in Lord Stinker.

• Up River (cameo)

Behind the Scenes

The Goods Engine superficially resembles an 0-6-0 US Army tank engine, but is actually a model made from 'splicing' together various parts from other locomotives (such as the cab, which, upon close inspection, is a German design in origin), and scratchbuilding a few parts (most notably, the side tanks). Jeremy King said that the model was disliked by David Mitton, likely because of its low realism. There were rumours that the Goods Engine's model was used for Rosie in TUGS' sister series, Thomas and Friends, but The Sodor Island Forums have confirmed this to be false.
