Not that Gordon, the other one.

Description

Over the last few weeks I've been making a model of Gordon. Not the Thomas character, this one's a big blue engine. Oh wait.

I've always found this to be a weird coincidence. Two engines named Gordon, they both look similar, and first appeared around the same time as one another (for the record, the LMR's Gordon was built before The Three Railway Engines was published, but after most of it was written)

I've always preferred the WD 2-10-0 to the 2-8-0, though if the number of available models (both physical and virtual) are anything to go by, the 2-8-0 tends to be the preferred type (probably because it was more common in the UK). I will be making this model in various other liveries, including both WD green liveries, BR black and Σ.Ε.Κ. black livery.

Actually, ironically enough, this engine WAS used as Gordon the Character at a day out with thomas event.   vignette.wikia.nocookie.net/tt…
