Description I'm striking while I can.

back in October, two S24 specials were announced with the titles of "Marvelous Machinery" and "The Royal Engine" which made me start to think that England (specifically around the National Railway Museum in York) would be one of the next places Thomas goes to in his Big World Aventure.
and on Saturday, it was announced that a new engine named "Duchess" would be introduced (read this t.co/nnl6nW4fTN?amp=1 ) so now I'm sure it's gonna happen because Duchess of Hamilton is a part of the NRM's collection, and she's an LMS Princess Coronation Class  
(the chances for that seem to be not low.) so here's what I hope duchess will look like (the face is based on Streak Smeargle's recent picture of her on Twitter )

Update on my theory: I have more proof supporting it, a VA by the name of Harrit Kershaw tweeted a pic of a poster for "A Royal Engine" with Thomas and STH in front of Big Ben but she then deleted it, but TramEngineAlt saved it and here it is. twitter.com/TramEngineAlt/stat…

News: a promo for "A Royal Engine" showed up ( vignette.wikia.nocookie.net/tt…) and I think the engine on the Right is Duchess. so she's not streamlined but I don't really care honestly I may be right about her being Duchess of Hamilton. (we just need a better look at her side so we can see her number)

I was hoping it would be this engine as well.  But, sadly she's not going to be the Coronation Class.

The Duchess is a Duchess like Duchess of Sutherland, but it certainly would have been cool to see her as one of the streamliners or Ivatt modified ones. And Duchess of Sutherland has hauled a royal train during preservation, so it would be cool if it was her instead of Duchess of Hamilton, but eh if it isn't. They've already taken creative liberty with the engine after all.

The face of the engine in promo kinda looks like my design of Maud's CGI face

But with Larger eyerbrows and without the blush
