FanFic:Thomas The Trackmaster Adventures biographies: Molly
Character: Molly the Yellow Engine
Bio
Molly was built in October 1903 by James Holden at Startford Works for the Great Eastern Railway, numbered 8867 by the London and North Eastern Railway in 1923. She worked with Toby (then No. 7136) and Sarah the B12 (No. 8500). In 1939, World War II broke out in Europe, and ended 1945.
But later on, all was not well for poor Molly. In May 1947, her mother Claude Hamilton, the prototype D14/D15/D16, was withdrawn from service and broken up in December. In January 1948, Molly (now BR no. 62538) became even more upset when Toby (BR no. 68217) was allocated to the North Western Railway, while Molly went off to Norwich (Thrope) Sheds.
In April 1952, she was withdrawn from service and ordered for scrapping, but she was rescued at the last minute by an ex-LNER V3, Herbert. The two ran away from the cutter's torch.
Molly was restored and worked on the South Eastern Railway, a preservation railway. She also befriended a Southern Railway Q1 numbered "C10", or Neville. In 1988, when a Class 37 came to the railway, he said rude things about the engines, and plotted for them to be scrapped. Molly stopped the 37 by throwing him off a broken bridge, but Molly fell off too. The Class 37 was scrapped soon after that.
Molly was recovered from the accident, and by late 1989, she was restored like a really useful engine. In 2001, Molly and Neville were sold to the North Western Railway, where Molly was repainted North Western yellow, with a number 23 on her cab sides. When she arrived on Sodor, Thomas fell in love with her, but was too nervous to speak to her. Eventually, in the end, Thomas and Molly fell in love.
In 2003, the Norramby branch line was restored, and she, Neville, and Eagle (James' brother) were to help out in the project. However, not everything went to plan, as Eagle got revenge on clergymen for splashing him, Molly bragged about her whistle and lost it, and Neville ended in a collision with tractor's load that spilled onto the line, derailing him.
Personality
Molly is a sweet, caring and intelligent female engine. Occasionally, she can be very shy and timid. Her feelings are easily hurt, and she gets embarrassed very easily, but she can have the courage to do things right.
Molly also has concern for the other engines if they are sick or in trouble. Molly is also a helpful engine, whenever her friends want some help, even if it's James, although she dislikes him clearly.
Molly sometimes seems to have a sense of humor, and cannot resist teasing Neville and vice-verse. She sometimes reminds James of his past incidents, even those prior to her life on Sodor, much to James' annoyance.
