Description
Here we have the first two engines of the Skarloey Railway at Crovan's Gate Yard sometime in the late 1860s, not too long after No. 1 "Skarloey" was rescued from a landslide by No. 2 "Rheneas." It is established here that it's that moment when Skarloey and Rheneas truly became the wonderful brothers we know and love.

In doing this, I started with Rheneas, wanting to draw the old engine as he would've looked without his cab. After doing this, I realized that with wanting to draw the two engines getting along, I would have to draw Skarloey with his cab, as he had it when they finally made up. I couldn't find when Rheneas received his cab, so I guess you could say this is very recently after "Stick in the Mud."

Also wanted to add in the S&M tracks next to the Crovan's Gate Yards, so we have one of the box tanks, halted next to the yard while the drive speaks with a SR company official and grey-haired foreman.

Hope you all enjoy this! I had a lot of fun drawing these two!
