Flower and Fiona

**Flower and Fiona the "Larger Seagull" Engines** are one of the antagonists and supporting characters in the Seventyverse. While Flower is a member of the Anti Diesel Electric League Revolution, Fiona was a former member before she left and joined the Earl's Railway Museum.

## Backstory

Fiona and Flower used to work alongside Edward on the Furness Railway. They did live uneventful lives, but sadly, Fiona got withdrawn because she didn't get rebuilt like Flower did. When the diesels came, Flower was withdrawn too. Then Addison purchased both of them...

During the events of *Engines of the Same Metals*, while Flower was bumped by her brother into a siding at the Dieselworks after she called BoCo "new-fangled nonsense", Fiona helped to put out the fire, along with Nathan, Heather and Roxanne. After Addison's defeat and arrest, Fiona joined the Earl's Railway Musuem.

## Personalities

Flower is huffy, seeing new machines as "new-fangled nonsense", and a general "I'm better than you" attitude. (More details regarding Flower's personality to be added)

Fiona on the other buffer, is more of a follower. She is grateful toward Addison, and feels a bit of pity toward the diesels and electric engines that she is forced to scrap. However, she didn't have the morality to stand up to Addison or anyone else, feeling it's for the best. She's more of a "self pitying" engine.

## Technical Details

### Basis

Flower and Fiona are based on Sharp, Stewart and Company "Larger Seagull" K2 class 4-4-0 tender locomotives built for the Furness Railway. Flower has the same modifications as Edward, but Fiona is still in her old shape.

These locomotives were built in two batches: the first of six in 1896, with two extra members of the class being built later in 1900. All eight of the locomotives survived into the 1923 grouping and lasted through to the late 1920s and early 1930s, performing secondary duties around Barrow-in-Furness. In real life, all of the K2s were scrapped, with none surviving into preservation, though an engine with a nearly identical shape is preserved at a museum in the Netherlands.

Edward is also based on a "Larger Seagull", albeit heavily modified.

### Liveries

Fiona is painted light brown with blue wheels. Flower is painted orange with maroon lining. She also has a maroon running board and wheels with gold handrails.
