Southern Island Railway

Chapter 17: Godson Railway

Belle headed down the line, a spring in her puff, as came closer to a station. However, there was a steam engine that Belle didn't expect to see other than Sodor.

This engine goes by the name Eric. He's an LB&SCR E2 Class 0-6-0 Tank Engine from the London, Brighton and South Coast Railway. He has 6 small orange wheels, a short stumpy black funnel, a short stumpy boiler and a short stumpy dome. He has orange paint with blue lining around the boiler tanks, red buffer beams, along with a golden whistle just at the front of his cab.

"Hello there," said Belle, "What's your name?"

"Oh, I'm Eric," said Eric, "You the new engine to help out here?"

"No," said Belle, "I'm Belle, and this is Talyllyn. We're from the Southern Island Railway."

"Oh, never heard of it," said Eric.

"Don't surprised," said Belle, "The island is often self sustained, and we've just recently gotten heard of across the mainland here."

"Who you talking to Eric?" asked a voice.

The voice belongs to a young girl, known as Olivia is the daughter of Laura and Lucas (both had divorce when Olivia was 9 and was raised by Laura as a single mother from that day on and Laura has been supporting the railway), who loves everything that has to do with coding, gadgets, inventions, engineering and mechanics. She's a bit of a "Mad Scientist", but she only uses her powers for good. She and Eric have a brother and sister like relationship, ever since they first met.

"Oh, Olivia, this is Belle," said Eric, "She's seems to be lost."

"Oh, well, let's get you to the main sheds for you to rest," said Olivia.

So, Belle followed Eric to the main sheds, and there, some other engines were resting after the long day. They go by the names of Henrietta, Kate, Christian, Keshaun, Lenry and William.
