Winston

Winston is a red engine of the NWR.

Personality
Winston is a generally nice and kind engine. He is shown to be good friends with Thomas, and helped to comfort him and teach him how to shunt after Lily lost her patience with him.

However, Winston can get annoyed easily, especially during the war, especially when he said he wanted to shunt a munitons train into the sea.

Basis
Winston is based on the Lancashire and Yorkshire Railway (L&YR) Class 28, a class of 0-6-0 mixed-traffic tender locomotive designed by George Hughes for the Lancashire and Yorkshire Railway and built by Horwich Works between 1909 and 1912. It was a rebuild of Aspinall's Class 27, with the addition of a Belpaire firebox, a Schmidt/"twin-plug" superheater and the extension of the footplate and front sandboxes. One Class 27, 52322, survives and is operational at the Ribble Steam Railway.

Winston is painted bright red with yellow stripes
