Creed was a dock tank who used to work at Dragons Wharf and was one of the first engines to arrive on the Waterdown Railway. Clay often talks about him (particularly his eyebrows) and the days when he and Creed ran the line single handedly.


CHARACTER HISTORY


Creed helped Clay build most of the extensions on the Waterdown Railway. Afterwards he became a dock tank at Dragons Wharf as a shunting engine and was a natural story teller and shunter. When diesels started taking over he felt he had to go to extremes to prove a steam engines worth, unfortunately he went too far and worked himself to bits, and was scrapped at Masonary Bridge.


CHARACTER PERSONA


Creed was a good natured and hard working engine who knew more about trucks than any other engine. He was a natural storyteller and enjoyed sharing them with his friends. However, he wasn't good at knowing when to take it easy as he worked himself to pieces to prove steam engines weren't useless.



LIVERY


Creed is painted in Southern Railway goods black.


BASIS


Creed is based on the LBSCR E2 tank engine (without extended side tanks) number 2104. None of the real E2's survived into preservation.
