### Bio

Gordon is a blue tender engine who works on the N.W.R. He mainly pulls an express passenger service with Rebecca. Gordon starts his journeys at Knapford, while Rerbecca begins at Vicarstown. Gordon was originally brought to N.W.R. to handle the Wild Nor Nester, around the early 2010's he ended up having to step down from express work, due to the increasing tight schedule, he and Rebecca were then reassigned to their current express passenger service, while Pip and Emma took over the Wild Nor Wester.

### Persona

Gordon is often a very pompous engine, but as time has gone on he's matured over the years and is now a little more willing to help out the smaller engines. Though he still has his moments where he ends up thinking very highly of himself and being grumpy in general, which has often gotten him into trouble. But he dose work hard and tries to get his work, even if it involves trucks, done, and he tries his best to be really useful.

### Technical info

Gordon is based on the GNR Class A1 Pacific (prototype).

#### Livery

Gordon is painted blue with red lining with his number painted in yellow with red lining. Before coming to Sodor, he was painted Green with white lining, with the letters L.N.E.R painted in yellow, with black outlining on his tender.
