Freight cars

**Freight cars** are a type of rolling stock designed to carry goods as opposed to passengers. Many types of freight cars appear in *American Rail*, lettered for many different companies. They are sometimes called **Troublesome Trucks** or **Foolish Freight Cars** because of they apparent desire to derail engines. However, their hatred is replaced by fear of certain engines in some cases.

There have been cases of engines and freight cars sharing common interests.

## Types of freight cars

* Boxcars

Boxcars are large, hollow rectangles on wheels. They are commonly used to carry boxed goods and other things that cannot be carried in other types of freight car.

* Reefers

Reefers are essentially refrigerated boxcars. They are used to carry produce that would spoil in the heat of a standard boxcar.

* Tankers

Tankers are used to carry liquid products, such as petroleum, milk, water, and even tequila. They can also be used to carry gaseous materials

* Hoppers

Hoppers are used to carry materials like coal, gravel, ballast, grain, and other such materials. Some have open tops for easy loading, while materials like grain require covered hoppers to prevent damage.

* Livestock cars

Livestock cars are used to transport cows, pigs, and other livestock to market. The D&N keeps some livestock cars in service for special orders.

* Container cars

Container cars are specially made to carry intermodal containers atop one another. Intermodal containers can be transferred from a ship to a container car to an 18-wheeler truck.

* Flatbeds

Flatbeds are flat cars used to carry goods that can't be carried in other cars because they are too large. An example of goods carried on flats are large trailers and vehicles. A variant of these is a wellcar, which has the length of car between the trucks closer to the rails. This makes them ideal for large loads that are too tall to fit between a standard flat and an obstacle above the rails. Sometimes, small engines like Rex are transported using wellcars.

* Autorack

Autoracks are double-level flats designed to carry automobiles.

* Schnabel car

Schnabel cars are designed to carry oversized loads such as generators by integrating the load into the design of the car.

* Gondola

Gondolas are short height-wise, but long to accommodate bulk goods.

## Trivia

* It has become a major inside joke among railway staff, engines and railfans that freight cars are inherently suicidal, especially those used in mountainous regions.
Altoona

**Altoona** is a character appearing in *American Rail*. He is a K4s of the Pennsylvania Railroad and is the Dallas and Northern Railroad's current No. 14. He is used for main line passenger trains.

## Altoona

### Affiliation

Dallas and Northern Railroad, formerly Pennsylvania Railroad

## Basis

Altoona is based on the K4s class of the Pennsylvania Railroad. These were among the PRR's most famous locomotives, and Sir Nigel Gresley took inspiration from them when developing the LNER's A1s. Two were preserved, and the class is considered the official locomotive of Pennsylvania.

Hank, in the Thomas and Friends Television series, is a member of this class.
Coaches

**Coaches** are a type of rolling stock used to carry passengers.

## Types of coaches

* Coach

A standard coach has little amenities. Two types are used on the D&N: open types have a central walkway and a seat layout similar to an airplane; closed types (also called compartment types) have separate rooms and a walkway on one side of the coach.

* Diner

Dining coaches are like a restaurant on wheels. Passengers are seated at a table and order a meal, which is cooked in another section of the coach.

* Lounge car

Lounge cars feature a bar, as well as benches or swiveling seats and large windows. They often have small tables for drinks, laptops, art setups or games of cards.

* Observation cars

Observation cars are always at the back of a passenger train. Their interior can feature elements of a coach or lounge car. At the end is an open area where passengers may stand and view the scenery.

* Sleeping car

Sleeping coaches feature rooms for people to sleep in on overnight trains.

* Baggage car

Baggage cars are used to carry luggage on long trains.

* Combine car

Combines are a combination of a coach and a baggage car. The D&N uses these on local trains.

* Dome car

Dome cars are a type of lounge car with an upper level with a glass dome.

The Dallas and Northern currently uses aluminum examples of all of these.

Cromford

**Cromford** is a character appearing in *American Rail*. He is an 0-4-0 diesel-hydraulic locomotive built by W.G. Bagnall and is the Dallas and Northern Railroad's current D13.

## Bio

Cromford was purchased from a factory in Wales in 1972 to serve as Denver's new station pilot.

## Basis

Cromford is based on Leys, an 0-4-0DH built by W.G. Bagnall. This was the second-to-last locomotive to be built by the company. Leys is currently on the Foxfield Railway in England.

Dart is also a brother of Leys.

## Trivia

* Cromford is a village in England. There is an 0-6-0T tank engine engine named Cromford owned by the Bluebell Railway. It is unknown how *AR*'s Cromford got his name.
* The original inspiration for Cromford came from a video by YouTube user Simierski. In said video, the creator shows how he converted three Thomas and Friends Take-N-Play toys to run on HO/00 scale track, one of which was Dart. This method would have been used to create Cromford's model in the 2013 series.
Angelica

**Angelica** is a character appearing in *American Rail*. She is a USRA 0-6-0 built in 1918 and is currently the Dallas and Northern Railroad's No. M1.

### Affiliation

Dallas and Northern Railroad Maintenance of Way

## Basis

Angelica is based on the standard 0-6-0 switch locomotive of the United States Railroad Administration. These locomotives were built by ALCO and Baldwin during the US' involvement in the first World War and distributed to various railroads around the country. Many of these lines gave them different power classifications and commissioned copies of the design. Many of these were also used on class III industrial railroads, as increasing traffic dictated more powerful switchers, and thus major railroads began preferring the larger USRA 0-8-0. Many switchers of similar designs survive in preservation, but it is debatable how many are originals and which ones are copies, or even of the USRA design.

Angelica herself differs from the original design because she was rebuilt with a Belpaire firebox.

## Livery

Angelica is painted in the standard color scheme of the D&N MOW team: Red with yellow lining, and yellow-and-black warning stripes on her smokebox, pilot and tender end.

## Trivia

* Angelica was the first character to be created, albeit under a different name. Her original name was Dixie, after the Nashville, Chattanooga and St. Louis Railway which her model was lettered for.

Non-Revenue Cars

A **Non-Revenue Car** is a piece of rolling stock used on a railway that is not technically used for revenue service (i.e. it does not carry goods or passengers).

## Types of Non-Revenue Car

* Cabooses

Cabooses are a special type of rolling stock made to carry the conductor. The conductor would assist in braking and check for hot axleboxes from the caboose. While they were phased out in the 1970s and 80s, the D&N still owns several cabooses for special occasions.

* Maintenance Cars

Maintenance cars are added at the front of D&N passenger trains as a means of transporting tools for immediate locomotive maintenance. They carry large wrenches, grease guns, a schematic library, among other things.

* Handcars/push trolleys

In the past, handcars were used by workmen to get from place to place to work on track. They operate by using a pump to move a small flatcar. Handcars are not used in service by the D&N, but many examples are preserved at the Dallas and Northern Railway Museum.

* Maintenance of Way Vehicles

Various MOW vehicles are used to keep the tracks of the D&N in good order, from ballast regulators and tampers to cranes.
Dallas Terminus

**Dallas Teminus** is the southernmost station on the Dallas and Northern Railroad's current main line. It is located in north Dallas, Texas and houses the headquarters of the company.

## Overview

The station in its current shape is roughly modeled after the North Western Railway's station at Tidmouth. There are four terminal tracks and two through tracks within the station building, all laid out in pairs between platforms. A glass roof covers the platform area. Multiple shops and restaurants rent space within the building. There is also a gift shop which mainly carries merchandise of the D&N as well as other railway companies and the Thomas and Friends television series. The station also operates a railway-themed restaurant called The Buffet Car. A large portion of the station is dedicated to the company's headquarters, which includes meeting rooms and the Controller's Office.

On display outside the station's front entrance is a former D&N engine named *Black Widower*.

The station is directly adjacent to the Dallas engine shed and freight yard, and is very close to the Dallas and Northern Railway Museum.

## History

Dallas Terminus was the first station to be built, Completed in January 1914. At the time, it was laid out as a simple station, with only two terminus tracks. The station continued to expand and eventually grew to something similar to its current plan. The station underwent renovation from 1956-1960 and is now in the current shape.

## Trivia

* In the 2013 series, the station was referred to as Dallas Station, and was built as a small station with a single through platform. The building was constructed with multicolored LEGO bricks.

## Puffy

### Affiliation

Grapevine Vintage Railroad, formerly Southern Pacific Railroad, Texas State Railroad, Fort Worth and Western Railroad

## Bio

Puffy was built in 1896 for the Southern Pacific Railroad. After decades of service, he was transferred to the Southern Pacific's Fire Train, and for many years spent his summers on sidings awaiting the call to action. When diesel traction began taking over, he was bought by a private investor who watned to use him for excursion services, though these lpans never became a reality. He finally ran once more in the 1970s as Texas State Railroad No. 200. In the 1980s, the Fort Worth and Western Railroad purchased him for their Tarantula Train excursions, and in 2005 was transferred to the city of Grapevine and lettered for the Grapevine Vintage Railroad.

His name is an enigma. His friends on the Southern Pacific called him... . Later, on the Fort Worth and Western, most simply referred to him by the service he pulled (the Tarantula Train) but the crews soon nicknamed him "Puffy." This nickname stuck, and this is what most call him, though now he carries the name William S. Davis on his cab.

## Basis

Puffy is based on the real No. 2248, currently owned by the real Grapevine Vintage Railroad. As of 2017, he is undergoing overhaul, but is estimated to be ready by the end of the summer.

Terrence

**Terrence (formerly Longhorn)** is a character appearing in *American Rail.* He is a member of the Longhorn class of 1915 and is currently the Dallas and Northern Railroad's No. 1. He works as a freight engine on the Boulder branch with Rachel.

## Biographical information

### Place of construction

Dallas and Northern Locomotive Workshops, Amarillo, Texas

## Bio

Terrence (commonly shortened to Terry) is a cynical steam engine who has been with the railroad since before its completion. He spent his early years as a mixed-traffic engine, hauling freight trains most of the time. He became the main express engine of the line during the revival period, and remained in this position until an accident in 1985. Since then, he has served as a freight engine on the Boulder branch line.

He is rather unique among locomotives, having a massive scar over his left eye (rare among non-military engines) as well as facial tattoos. His tattoos were added during his 2004 service at his request.

As the first of his class, he initially carried the name Longhorn, but chose to change it to Terrence during the revival period.

## Basis

Terry is a member of the Longhorn class, an original class based on various 2-8-0 "Consolidations," particularly Bachmann's HO scale Baldwin Consolidation model. The Longhorns were mixed-traffic engines and were among the most popular D&N classes among passengers and modelers. Terry deviates from the in-universe original design as he has been fitted with boxpok drive wheels.

## Livery

Terry is painted in the Express Silver livery of the D&N.

## Trivia

* Terry was the second character to be created, after Angelica.
* A Bachmann "Baldwin Consolidation" model was used to represent Terry in the original series. Because no particular prototype was found, an original class was created as Terry's basis.
	+ His basis changed in the 2014/15 series from a Canadian National class N-4 (a close match to the original model, albeit with a Belpaire firebox) to No. 300 of the Texas State Railroad.

Airlock

## Amanda Hamilton Weaver/Airlock

**Airlock** is a superhero that debuts in the episode "Satellite Secrets". She is a battle-hardened warrior, who has a militaristic approach to her job.

## Appearance

Airlock wears a black and navy blue exoskeleton, designed for her missions in outer space. Under her helmet, she has blonde hair in a military style haircut, blue eyes and black eyebrows, one of which has a scar.
She also is missing a hand, which she replaced with a high-tech detachable prosthetic.

## Personality

She is a ruthless, tough-as-nails military veteran, with no patience for villains. Having fought in a war in another galaxy for ten years and a prisoner of Bonnivet for another two, she likely has some form of PTSD. This is evident once she fights against the forces of Black Hat Organization: unable to cope with their clumsiness and perceived incompetence, she goes white with rage, going so far as foaming at her mouth.

## Paraphernalia

* **Power Armor**: In order to survive in space and defend herself against threats, Airlock uses a technological exoskeleton, which likely enhances her strenght and durability. The armor also protects her in life threatening situations, like when it deployed an oxygen dome once she was sucked into space without her helmet.
	+ **Jetpack:** The armor contains a jetpack, granting her high mobility in battle.
	+ **Hand Cannon:** Airlock's prosthetic hand doubles as a weapon, as it can turn into a cannon which fires lasers and sealing foam. It can be detached and used as a gauntlet

## Trivia

* Airlock's full name, Amanda Hamilton Weaver, references at least two actresses famous for their action hero roles: Linda Hamilton, who portrayed Sarah Connor in the *Terminator* franchise, and Sigourney Weaver, who played Ellen Ripley in the *Alien* franchise.
	+ Airlock's design - a power armor with a laser cannon in place of one hand - is an homage to Samus Aran, the protagonist of famous Nintendo videogame series *Metroid.*
	+ Her military blonde haircut is reminiscent of another videogame character: Guile, from *Street Fighter*.

V.I.R.U.S

**V.I.R.U.S.** is an A.I. and one of the clients of Black Hat Organization.

## Appearance

As of now, V.I.R.U.S. has no physical form, being a program in the digital world. Its avatar resembles a green skull with three eyes; when first created, it was colored blue.

## Personality

It speaks with a monotone voice. V.I.R.U.S. is a polite being, asking for assistance to Black Hat and his subordinates and praising them for a job well done. It seems to be capable of emotion, such as when it expressed uneasiness (when Black Hat shoved Flug's face into a monitor, it stated that if it had a physical body he would be "awkwardly close").

## Powers and Abilities

* **High Intellect and Logical Mind:** V.I.R.U.S. is an extremely advanced and intelligent A.I., as it was able to rewrite its own system in order to bypass the limitations its creators imposed to him. Furthermore, it was able to access from the data he had in his metaphorical hands that once a hero was sent to deal with it, the best course of action was to contact Black Hat Organization.
* **Access to Cyberspace:** V.I.R.U.S. seems to able to freely roam on the digital space, threatening to leak sensitive information on the internet and entering several devices, such as televisions and computers. It's also implied that he can take over machinery, as he ran a satellite by himself (for the purpose of storing his database).

## Trivia

* V.I.R.U.S. was designed by a group of scientists affiliated with P.E.A.C.E.

Bad Security

"**Bad Security**" is the seventh episode of Phase One of *Villainous*, and also the seventh episode overall.

It follows Black Hat advertising a home security system, but due to a mistake by Dr. Flug, he is unable to re-enter his manor.

## Synopsis

Black Hat greets the viewer, showing off his latest product, a security system. Dr. Flug joins in and demonstrates how it works. Black Hat wishes to go back inside, but can't, due to Dr. Flug not implementing a disarming function, as he believed that they would never have to turn it off. Black Hat kicks Dr. Flug over the fence so he can disarm the security from the inside of the manor. After running through a series of traps, he gets indoors, only to be greeted by an even larger array of traps, which all fire on him at once. Dr. Flug deactivates it and Black Hat enters the manor.

## Credits

* English version
* Spanish version

* **Voices:**
	+ Alan Ituriel as Black Hat
	+ Todd Asayer as Dr. Flug Slys

- **Voices:**
	* Alan Ituriel as Black Hat
	* José Antonio Macías as Dr. Flug Slys

## Trivia

* Episode Lip-Sync: English
* This episode marks the second absence of 5.0.5. from an episode, the first being in "Wearing Evil", and the third absence of Demencia from an episode, the second being "Bigger, Badder", and the first being "Ice Cream of Fear".
* This episode allows for the height of Black Hat's manor to be calculated. It is about 30 meters high, which is approximately equal to 98 feet or 9 stories.
* A clip of this episode is shown in "The Lost Cases of Ooo".
* Two of the kids in the snowball scene are caricatures of Villainous animators, Carolina Páez and Kevin Martínez.

### Cultural references

* One of the kids throwing snowballs is similar in appearance to Brief from *Panty & Stocking with Garterbelt*, though this may be a coincidence.
* Another one of the kids has an outfit similar to Taffyta Muttonfudge from the movie, *Wreck-It Ralph*.
* One of the manor's defenses is a bird in a slingshot, an obvious reference to *Angry Birds*.

Light Globes

Light globes are the core of light technology. They are hollow spheres of glass or other materials. They contain and manipulate light to perform many different functions. They recharge whenever they are exposed to light, but fiber optic cables can charge them faster. Globes typically are controlled by touching their surface. For example, they can be "thumbed up" by running a finger along their surface. It is important for light globes to be as smooth as possible, especially on the inside. Imperfect globes can explode violently.

Mister Aer is heavily involved in the development and manufacture of light globes. He sells his research and globes to Alizon and Serrin.

Globes have versatile functionality. They can:

* Produce light (screens, etc)
* Manipulate light
* Explode (for mining, military, etc)
* Calculate (computers)
* Heal (hospital)
* Produce audio

Known types of light globes include:

* Glow globes. Basically lightbulbs.
* Naviglobes (similar to GPS/cellphones).
* Display globes (similar to TVs)
* Sneaker globes, which provide invisibility, and Seeker globes, which detect Sneakers
* Flashbangs. Grenades that make a flash, bang, smoke, small shockwave. Activated with a triple-tap; a slide can delay detonation.
* Energy exchangers. Convert heat and pressure to usable energy.
* Hospital. Bathe a person in light to restore their health.
* Near Field Disruptors
* Chargers.
* Detonators.
* Excavators.
* Monitors.
* Drive globes.
* Recorders.

## Manufacture

Light globe production requires cave darkness. Because Welltower has this in abundance, as well as a large number of experienced personnel and secrets to manufacturing processes, Welltower is the exclusive manufacturer of light globes. Aer (father) and his son are in charge of globe manufacture.

Welltower sells globes to Alizon. Books 2 and 3 with attempts to start selling globes to Serrin.
