Timothy

Timothy is a Bilinton E2 Class tank engine built in Brighton Works in 1913, formerly LBSC No. 100, and then Southern Railway No. 2100. He was also Thomas' older brother and a father figure looking after his little brother. Unfortunately on his last run before his overhaul, he was switched onto the mainline instead of the branch line. Thankfully, the coaches were uncoupled from Timothy and his driver and fireman jumped clear before Timothy sacrifices himself plunging off an unfinished viaduct. Later in 1969, he was restored and reborn in Brighton Works and was sent to Sodor to work on the Ffarquhar Branch Line, reuniting with his little brother Thomas.
