Neil

Neil is a dark green tank engine with an unusual box shape and a Scottish accent. He is a simple but kind engine, who befriended Skarloey when he was young.
==Bio==
Built by Neilson and Company’s Hyde Park Works in Glasgow, Scotland in the 1856, for the Sodor and Mainland Railway. In 1865, Neil helped to ferry Skarloey from the port of Kirk Ronan to his home at the Skarloey Railway terminus of Crovan's Gate. He warned Skarloey about the trucks. 
Neil was sold to the Crovan's Gate Mining Company to raise funds for the struggling Sodor and Mainland Railway once it stopped carrying freight, mostly bringing slate from the transhipment sidings at Crovan's Gate to the harbour at Kirk Ronan.
