Calliope (AEG)

The Calliope is a steam-powered instrument that is used to play music at fairs.

Biography
The calliope was sent to play music at a fair at Norramby; on the way, however, the Biggest Adventure Club got into a big accident causing the calliope to fall apart. They tried gluing it back together with mud, but that just made things worse. In the end, the engines soon demonstrate their different sounds to Sir Topham Hatt, which he loves. The carnival is a success, even without the calliope.

Some time later, the calliope was restored for Nia's surprise party.

Livery
The calliope is painted green with a orange star in the centre. It has brass pipes of various sizes and a small white flag hanging by the side.
