Steven

Steven is a character in The Woodhead line Series. He is an LNER V2 who carries Woodhead number 00002 (LNER: 4772, BR: 60801), painted in BR Black livery and later LNER Apple Green. He is the main goods engine on the line.

Bio in The Woodhead line Series
Before being withdrawn, Steven belonged to the North Eastern region of British Railways. He was withdrawn in 1962, only 36 years after he was originally built. He was disposed at Darlington works and used for spare parts. Only a few parts were left of him by the time Edwin Salmon and The Woodhead line trust bought him in 1983, he was hastily restored only just in time for the lines reopening later that year.

Persona
Steven is mild mannered and hard working, and gets along nicely with all of the other engines. He always helps out when someone is in trouble. For a while he believed that he was the only surviving member of his class, although this could attributed to bullying from 47-289. Mr. Salmon promptly send Steven to the National Railway Museum in York, to meet his fellow survivor “Green Arrow”.
