Patrick

Patrick, previously named Lord Harry and known for a time by his number, No. 6, is a narrow gauge mountain-climbing engine who works on the Culdee Fell Railway.

The Railway Series
In 1960/1 Culdee and Shane Dooiney were in need of an overhaul, which required them to be sent to their manufacturer in Switzerland. The decision was made to order three new and more powerful engines to assist in the ever increasing traffic. Lord Harry was the first to be built at the Swiss Locomotive and Machine Works in Winterthur, Switzerland, to the latest "superheated" design, and arrived on the Culdee Fell Railway (RWS) in March 1962 where he was named after the railway's chairman, Lord Harry Barrane.

Lord Harry was troublesome and frightened his coaches by taking risks. After he derailed at the Summit, Lord Harry had his name removed, and was sent to the back of the shed in disgrace. After he heard the tale of Godred, he asked for a second chance, and was given one as a lowly shunting engine. However, when a message came warning that some climbers needed help during a gale, No. 6 went to the rescue with The "Trucks", and was fittingly renamed "Patrick" in honour of a climber who risked his life to help the others.

Personality
Like Godred, Patrick was very arrogant, pompous and reckless at first, but learned his lesson after his mountain rescue. Now, he only takes risks if absolutely necessary and is more responsible and mature than ever before.

Basis
Patrick is based on No. 6 Padarn, an engine who worked on the Snowdon Mountain Railway. Padarn was formerly named Sir Harmood, after the chairman of the railway. Padarn was built at the Swiss Locomotive and Machine Works in Winterthur, Switzerland in 1922.

Livery
Patrick is painted in the Culdee Fell Railway's livery of purple with orange lining. His number (6) is painted on the sides and back of his cab in yellow and he has a red nameplate with a gold boarder on the sides of his tanks with his name (Patrick) on them, also in gold. His buffer beams are painted red.
