-Bio: Jack is a Virginia & Truckee locomotive based off of the design of Locomotive No. 21 "J.W. Bowker", and in the middle of his brothers, Jeb & Dill, and owned by General William Snow. While wise like his older brother Jeb, he is more open-minded and insightful, and actually is more accepting of the changes of the modern world, especially the engines from that era. In fact, despite his old age, he's more up to date with a lot modern railway practices and trends, and is actually very intelligent and quick-witted. Of course on some occasions, he can be occasionally cocky and vain when this goes to his smokebox, and can often quarrel a lot with Jeb over their opinions. Despite this, he's aware of his flaws, and even admitting he's not always perfect, but is always knows when to keep his ego in check, especially when dealing with engines who could be far more egotistical engines. He also can offer positive advice and is actually quite sensible, displaying a great deal of common sense, and a great sense of humor, despite getting annoyed with Jeb's stubbornness and temper, or Dill's clumsiness and stupidity, he's a well-meaning and street-wise old engine that always takes on whatever job is given too him.

-Artist's Commentary: Hi all, so after Jeb, here's the second, and the middle engine of the trio, and the Larry Fine of my series, Jack, and definitely not to get mixed with the front loader from the Pack. Jack is basically the brains of the group, he's very kind, honest, and very easy-going, but his intelligence can go to his smokebox, and he could over estimate his abilities, and has a sibling rivalry with Jeb, and can get annoyed with Dill's clumsiness. But he knows when to have an ego check and arguably has the most common sense compared to his brothers. I reused the same for Jeb & Dill, as they are the same class, but Jack's face I based a little bit off of celebrity Jeff Goldblum, who  I can honestly see Jack having a similar personality too, being both cocky, but clever. I gave him 1930's style sunglasses to add some character, and his nose is actually based off of Duck's nose, but a little different. Enjoy, and be sure to check out Jack, and more his and Jeb's banter.
