Edward (AEG)

Edward is a blue tender engine who lives and works on the Island of Sodor.

Personality
Edward is one of the oldest engines on the Island of Sodor. He is patient, wise, kind and very hardworking. With years of experience under his buffers, he is ready for anything. Edward enjoys stories set in the past, but dislikes being teased about his age.

Basis
Edward in All Engines Go is a completely freelanced design, as the 6-6-0 wheel arrangement was never used on a real locomotive, though he still retains elements from his original series apparence.

In The Railway Series and Thomas & Friends, Edward is based on a heavily modified Sharp, Stewart and Company "Larger Seagull" K2 class, supplied to the Furness Railway in 1896.

Livery
Edward is painted blue with red lining on his cab, splashers, tender and boiler and yellow lining around his windows. His number (2) is painted on his tender in yellow with a red outline. His running board, bufferbeams and valences are all red.
