Stanley

Stanley is a silver saddletank engine. He can be seen working as a mixed traffic engine or shunting.

Biography
When he first came to Sodor, he was given Thomas' job, because he was working on the restoration of Great Waterton, a city that Thomas found earlier. Thomas became jealous of him right after James told him about Stanley. After Thomas derailed with a train, Stanley got the job of being in charge of repairs. He stayed in this position even after Thomas returned from the works, which made him more jealous. He later gave Stanley too many trucks, which resulted in them going runaway and destroying the tower. Thomas didn't wanted to destroy the tower, so he tried to do other engines' work at night, but he just got lost in mine. Stanley was the first engine to realise how Thomas felt. He searched for him in the hills and found him after Thomas fell into a ditch. He then pulled Thomas back on tracks and rescued him. Stanley became a good friend with Thomas after that.

Basis
Stanley is based on a hybrid cross of a Hudswell Clarke 0-6-0ST engine and Kitson's No. 5459 "Austin I", but with a taller funnel.
