Henry. Based on a real story, apparently.but they had their own unique way of sorting out problem loco's, didn't Gordon get bricked up in a disused tunnel for being pompous? perhaps it could be added to the things aren't what they were thread, WRT cruel and unusual punishments
I have the banned version of Henry the Green Engine. Written in a time before the negative connotation of certain words was well known.
When I used to read this books to my son I had to add various bits to it to correct the horrendous safety errors that were just accepted as part of running a fictional railway. No accident investigations, no training points, toolbox talks nor immediate interventions. Shocking.
