Dart

## Bio

**Dart** works at the Vicarstown Dieselworks to support and assist Den. Den and Dart have worked together for so long that Dart can often guess what Den is thinking before he can get it out himself. Although not so much the thinker of the duo, he is usually the doer and can be the chattier of the two. He quickly buzzes about the Dieselworks, occasionally bashing, crashing, and clanging into things. He can be heard to grumble "Dizzy Diesels!" when something goes wrong. Dart is very able in his work and a valuable team player. Despite being small in size, he is feisty and fast. Dart also like jokes, sometimes to the annoyance of the other Diesels. If feeling bothered, particularly by the steam engines, Dart is far from devious, but can get grumpy, gruff, irritable, and sometimes cheeky too, but otherwise he is the quick-witted assistant of the Dieselworks.

Arthur

## Bio

**Arthur** is a big tank engine who has never been naughty in his life. He was highly esteemed for his "spotless record" before he arrived on Sodor, never having made a mess or a fuss and never having caused an accident. His main duties were to shunt trucks and haul goods trains. Arthur can be a bit naive however and after a jealous Thomas tricked Arthur into setting his standards too high with the trucks, his record did not stay as spotless as he had hoped. Arthur is very obedient, cautious, and well-behaved. He aims to please in his work and do everything as best he can. He now mainly runs the Fishing Route by the coastal village, a duty which Thomas was only all too grateful to be relieved from. Here, Arthur enjoys the sea air and the smell of the fish.

Cranky

## Bio

**Cranky** is a large grumpy dockyard crane, who works and lives at Brendam alongside Big Mickey and Carly. The reason Cranky is so grumpy is because he was initially kept working day and night without rest. Cranky sometimes loves teasing the engines and has an intense dislike for Salty's stories.

Bulstrode

## Bio

He once resided on a beach as a children's play structure for many years until he could no longer take the isolation, vowing to be really useful again. Bulstrode was grumpy, rude, and always found something to complain about. Judging from the way he treated the trucks, he was not above bullying others for things beyond their control. While he still tends to be grumpy and disagreeable, Bulstrode has learned when to put a lid on it, fearing he'll be sent back to the beach.

Frankie

## Bio

**Frankie** is a charming and intelligent diesel shunter who can be very commanding. A natural leader, Frankie actively takes charge of operations at the Steelworks. She can be scheming at times, putting on a front to try and manipulate others into doing what she wants them to do. Frankie, however, is not mean at heart. She feels hard-done-by and rejected because there is more work to do at the Steelworks than there are engines to do it. She would love to be free to go off making deliveries with Hurricane, but feels the only way she will ever be able to achieve this is by tricking others into doing the work she doesn't want to do.

Duck

## Bio

His real name is Montague, but he is usually called **Duck**, which he prefers. This is said to be because he waddles, though he does not really. Duck stands for no nonsense from any engines that might get ideas above their station and try to order him or others about. Duck is often welcoming of newcomers, even most Diesels, in spite of having lies told about him by devious Diesel not long after his arrival. He will often support the underdog, stick up for his friends, and help others see the error of their ways. He has a branchline which was restored and Duck was asked to run it with help from Oliver and, on occasion, Donald and Douglas.

Thomas

## Bio

**Thomas** is a rather cheeky, but good hearted engine and generally behaves well, except when he is getting into mishap. He loves teasing the others and, on occasion, brags about his superiority, but is always brought down to earth in due course. If Thomas has one major character flaw, it is that he is forgetful, and slightly impatient. However, he is also optimistic and idealistic. Although their friendship has been turbulent at times, Percy is Thomas' best friend.

Ryan

## Bio

**Ryan** is an affable engine, who goes out of his way to be kind and is concerned when he sees others in trouble. Ryan would like to be a hero, but he’s not actually as brave as he wishes he was and has a tendency to panic a little in the face of danger. It does not put him off trying though. Ryan is direct and sincere, but he has a good sense of humour too and is not above making a joke at his own expense. Ryan was brought to help run Thomas' Branch Line while Thomas was sent to help out at the construction yard during the building of the Harwick Branch Line. He now runs the new branch line as the goods engine, with Daisy as the passenger engine.

The Good Old Days

**The Good Old Days** is the seventh episode of Season 1 of Sudrian Stories.

## Synopsis

It's Christmas time once again on Sodor, and this time, Stepney is visiting from the Mainland to transport a railway inspector. When he sees his old friend Caroline at a level crossing, she explains the issue with her old motor, so Stepney sets out to find the perfect gift before the Earl's big party!

## Plot

One Winter morning, Stepney the Bluebell Engine was coming to Sodor from the Mainland with Sir Topham Hatt and a railway inspector. When he arrives, he stops at a level crossing and there, is Caroline. They chat for a little bit before Stepney starts to leave. When he does, he hears Caroline's motor sputtering and wishes he could do something about it.

Caroline, meanwhile, heads to Elsbridge. On the way there, Harold calls out to her that he can see everything from in the sky, and when she arrives at Elsbridge, Percy and Emily are talking about going to Brendam Docks and Ulfstead Castle: two places Caroline has never been to. Stepney continues to feel bad for Caroline, and persuades his driver to help out in any way possible. His driver finally agrees and they set off for Tidmouth. When Stepney arrives, he sees Thomas' flatbed and asks if he can borrow it so he can let Caroline ride on it. Thomas agrees if Stepney can bring it back in time for the Earl's party.

Stepney takes the flatbed and sets off to look for Caroline, however, he looks everywhere and can't find her. It's late out and he finally finds her broken down at Wellsworth. Thomas comes in looking for the flatbed, and urges Stepney to let him have it back. Stepney tells Thomas about Caroline, but Caroline would rather Thomas have the flatbed because she isn't important. Thomas and Stepney disagree, and they find a second flatbed. The two engines, Caroline, and the tree set off towards Ulfstead Castle, allowing Caroline to travel fast and far like she was once able to, in the good old days.

Den

## Bio

**Den** is the diesel engine who runs the Vicarstown Dieselworks, repairing other diesels. He is stately and deeply pensive. He tries to make sure everything he says is deeply considered, can often be heard muttering "what I mean to say is...", and can tend to over-think. He may come across as a little slow, but nothing could be further from the truth. He is rather astute and likes to take into account as much as he can with regards to a problem. Although he is not a worrier, he may tend to be on the fence about taking particular action over a matter before making a calculated, informed decision that will be worth the wait. Sometimes though, Dart, his assistant at the Dieselworks, can tell what he is thinking and cut to the chase a little quicker for the benefit of the other engines, which is why they support each other so well as a team. Den is a hard worker and is popular and well respected among the diesels for fixing them with a whisk of his wheels, even if his tools may be old and shoddy and his machinery may be outdated. Although he is not devious, Den may have the occasional chuckle at an engine's expense.

'Arry and Bert

## Bio

'**Arry and Bert** (also known as **Iron 'Arry** and **Iron Bert**) are twin diesel engines who worked at the smelters scrapyards of the Sodor Ironworks. 'Arry and Bert are unquestionably devious and scheming. They feel superior to steam engines and working at the scrapyards, they enjoy the chance to break up engines or at least make their lives more difficult. Due to their grim task, they have earned a reputation on Sodor as "The Grim Messengers of Doom". Following an incident with Sidney, Sir Topham Hatt relocated them to the Ffarquhar Quarry so Mavis can keep an eye on them. They still hang out at the smelters yard from time to time, but ultimately work away from trouble.

"Primal" Culture

**"Primal"** is the name of the first culture where stone tools were being used, dating back to 3 000 000 years ago. The culture belonged to a small group of "Australopithecus afarensis" on the eastern side of "America".

Groups of "A. afarensis" consisted of about 15-25 people, with a few being designated stone worker (ie, making the stone tools). Due to the culture not being around any forests, and restricted to more savanna and plain-like areas, they had fewer plants to find to eat. As a result, they started to hunt down small animals for meat. The people living in the culture lived mainly in and around caves, but those that were situated far from a cave, make primitive lean-tos for shelter.

The region lied partially on open plains, and the rest in the forest, all while being located near a river.

Roughly 2000 Australopithecus lived within this culture, spread out over 101 groups and 125 km2.
Captain

## Bio

**Captain** is a brave motorized lifeboat. Captain lives in his own small shed, ready, willing, and always on hand raring for action in case of an emergency. In his early years, he was a member of the Coast Guard, which is where he actually met Harold. Once the Search and Rescue Center was built, Harold knew of an old friend he could call on. Being a lifeboat, Captain knows that duty may call out at sea to help and rescue anyone at any time. He takes this role seriously and is highly assertive, confident, and is unfazed in the face of daring, dangerous missions, but is not made ostentatious or egotistical by his important responsibilities. He is level-headed, always knows what has to be done, and shows good leadership skills. Sometimes Captain can't help but feel like he doesn't get as much attention compared to the other rescue vehicles since most of his adventures take place far from the railway, but he'll always be an important part of the Sodor Search and Rescue Team.

Scruff

## Bio

**Scruff** "the Scruncher" is a grubby little chap, with a lime green boxy shape. He is more than content with "scrunching" and shunting rubbish trucks at Whiff's Waste Dump and has few other aspirations. He has been known to run in fear and hide away from things that he does not quite understand and can find having all the focus on him a little daunting. It seems, at times, that Scruff would rather be busily working in the background. However, he is cheerful to welcome engines to the waste dump and happy to have others join in with the "scrunching". He is notably, perhaps, one of the few engines on Sodor with little desire to be clean and presentable. Scruff's main motivator is being able to just get stuck in and knuckle down with his jobs.

What's the Dieselworks?

**What's the Dieselworks?** is the third song featured in Evil Like Diesel. It is performed by Chase the Ferroequinologist and EpicLafiteau.

## Lyrics

**Bill:** What’s the Dieselworks?
A dark and scary place!
Evil diesels lurk around
And hide without a trace!
**Ben:** They’ll sneak up right behind
you and mash you into the ground!
At the big ol’ spooky Dieselworks
that’s down in Vicarstown!
**Bill and Ben:** The big ol’ spooky Dieselworks
That’s down in Vicarstown!
Town!
Town!
Town!
Town!
**Bill:** Smile?
**Ben:** No!
**Bill and Ben:** Never do they smile!
Those diesels at the Dieselworks
Are truly mean and vile!
They’ll laugh and they’ll tease you!
They’ll pound ya into pulp!
**Ben:** If I were you, I’d give a little gulp.
**Philip:** What’s the Dieselworks?
I don’t understand!
A journey to the Dieselworks seems
more scary than planned…
**Bill:** Remember when you’re finally at
That place you asked about…
**Ben:** The Dieselworks is dangerous, so
You might not make it out!
**Bill and Ben:** The Dieselworks is dangerous, so
You might not make it out!
**Bill:** The Dieselworks is dangerous, so
You might not make it out!
**Bill and Ben:** Out!
Out!
Out!
Out!
**Bill:** Be careful, Philip!
**Ben:** Don’t let those evil diesels get you!
**Philip:** I’ll try…
**Bill and Ben:** Hey!

Hank

## Bio

**Hank** is a large American tender engine. Hank is big, bold, and blue. He is the biggest engine on Sodor, along with Connor and Caitlin. He may come across as brash in his cheery confidence and enthusiasm, but being the mighty titan he is, Hank is more than used to being easily seen or heard. In his jolliness, he may seem a little goofy and kooky, especially with so many bells and whistles and a cowcatcher, but big ol' Hank has a big ol' heart and is more than happy to buffer up, share, and lend a helping hand. Using his might, strength, and power to be able to assist others is something that only comes all too naturally to him and he takes it in his stride, without second thought. Hank can become concerned about his friends though, as he gladly keeps an eye out for the other little engines. The only trouble with being Hank is that virtually every engine is little compared to him. While he may not be a Sodor engine, he often visits and helps out on the railway from time to time.
Salty

## Bio

**Salty** is easy-going, friendly and very practical. He also enjoys telling stories revolving around the sea and fantasy. His seafaring ways and accent are sometimes ridiculed by the other engines, but his usefulness almost always helps the others overlook that. He can work with trucks like no other engine, this is due to his enjoyment of working to a musical rhythm like the trucks, it also may be due to his vast collection of sea shanties. He loves the sea so much that he pines for it when he is away from it for long periods of time.

Darcy

## Bio

**Darcy** is a tunnel boring machine and one of the Pack’s newest members who can often be so focused on getting her job done that she doesn’t pay attention to anything going on around her. Darcy is motivated and eager-to-please, but her tendency to accidentally aim her tunnel drill where she isn’t supposed to makes the rest of the Pack wary of her on site despite her constantly trying to find ways to volunteer and be helpful. Darcy’s “tunnel vision” can make her come across as ditzy or gullible (as she will usually take any instruction she’s given about where to work at face value) at times, but she simply wants to do the best job possible and make Miss Jenny proud. She can get rather nervous and in her own head when she believes she’s made a mistake, but she’ll always make things right and come through in a pinch with help from her friends!
Carly

## Bio

**Carly** is a new shiny gantry crane who works at Brendam Docks with Cranky and Big Mickey. Carly is a bubbly crane who is happy to help out.

Skiff

## Bio

**Skiff** is a railboat. He was originally owned by Sailor John, but now gives Railboat Tours around Arlesburgh Harbour. He is a feisty fun-loving little boat with a very upbeat and positive attitude. Skiff treats every day as an exciting new adventure; he likes to see the best in everyone and think of the world as a wonderful place. This leaves him vulnerable to persuasion to the point of appearing gullible.

## Trivia

* Before getting fixed up, he was painted brown.
* Skiff's name comes from a small watercraft that can carry a small crew, normally one person.
* The inspiration for Skiff came from the Ffestiniog Railway's rail-driven boat, "Spooner's Boat".
Henry

## Bio

**Henry** is generally well-behaved, but he is occasionally arrogant and vain. Henry is at heart a hard worker, but his frequent bouts of illness hinder his work. His illness almost always involves his boiler having some sort of issue. Henry has a much kinder and softer personality than some of the bigger engines. He also has a love for nature. Henry is not too bright, and sometimes really worrisome, but he is always there for a friend in need. For a while, Henry wanted a change of scenery and asked Sir Topham Hatt if he could be moved to Vicarstown, which would be more convienient for him taking so many goods trains to and from the Mainland. When Murdoch returned to Sodor, both Henry and Sir Topham Hatt found it in their best interest that Henry should move back to Tidmouth so he could be closer to where The Flying Kipper starts, and he couldn't be happier.

He escaped from scrap with Oliver, with some help from Douglas . Toad is very loyal, keeps Oliver's trucks in order, and has his best interests at heart.

Philip

## Bio

**Philip** is a little diesel boxcab engine with a big personality. Philip is a comic character and a bit of a clown. He is very eager and full of enthusiasm and he has an innocent, but very overblown sense of his own capabilities. Philip can be very funny, but some of the bigger engines have very little patience for the little boxcab. Philip is strong and can pull lots of trucks, but not that many trucks compared to the really big engines. He is fast and likes to hurry about, but he is clearly not as fast as most of the other engines. But Philip's confidence is as big if not bigger than anyone's and he is always willing to try and definitely believes in himself. His actions and attitude soon won him many new friends on Sodor, especially Thomas and Percy, but Gordon and James find his bragging a little hard to accept. Despite this, Philip can be the exact opposite if he chooses to. He is shown being quiet and enjoying the scenery, just like Toby. All in all, Philip reminds Edward of Thomas when he first came to Sodor, and the two now stay at Wellsworth Sheds together.

However, he is very able to show that his crane is very useful in lifting cargo, trucks, and sometimes some smaller engines. He has a booming, thoughtful voice and large wooden buffers.
