Description This is just a preview of something I planned but, did not either colour not digitise.

This shall count as the Third Great Gathering (within the WWR).

In the large railway shed in Workhaven. The regular based locomotives have been relocated for the event but some are already based here.
Left to right, we have:
 
* Peggy Hindley [W1 4-6-4] She has a secondary tender and named after a very special woman close to my heart and my upbringing.
* Duchess of Norfolk [P2 2-8-2] Worked on Welsh Water Railway belonged to PatOakGo but has been on the WhippetWildRailway for the last three years.
* Silver Lady [A4 4-6-2] The fictional fifth Silver Streak locomotive, in PatOakGo timeline, the other four silver streaks were scrapped (like in OTL) leaving Silver Lady as the only one. But on her extended visit to the WWR, she is able to reunite with a unscrapped sister (Silver Fox)
* Silver Fox [A4 4-6-2] Based on the real scrapped locomotive but, in the WWU, she was saved (as well as the other twelve models I have) so many more Streaks exist, and she gets to meet the sister she never know about (Silver Lady). She is also World steam speed record holder at 130 mph.
* Sarah Shore [A4 4-6-2] A fictional A4 which exists within the WWU, and has a secondary tender if needed and steam speed record holder (after Silver Fox) but, has the post-BR record or 'heritage record'. Named after a legendary, multiple times Women's wrestling champion and later Prime Minister of Britannia.
* Grey Lady [C11 4-4-2]. She is an Atlantic locomotive built with the streamlining of the bigger A, W and P classes. A 'baby Streak' as it were. She has previously spend a few years touring Australia and escorting the British Lions rugby and cricket teams on their tours of the great orange country-continent.
* Heather [P2 2-8-2] Semi streamlined and used a lot for freight but, does not mind stepping in to cover one of her smaller A and W class sisters on passenger trains and promotional tours.
* Golden Alice [A4 4-6-2] belonging to PatOakGo She came with her sister 'Silver Lady' for an extended visit on the Whippet Wild Railway. She came as the renamed 'Golden Anglia' in green but, (since I muddled up a few details), she is going around with 'Golden Alice' plates and in gold with black stripes livery. This is her first time in the WWR, and gets to meet the streak fleet as well as meet possible old friend in 'Duchess of Norwich' (I do not know if they ever met but, I would like to imagine, they are friendly or social with each other.) Golden Alice is open mouthed at the two C11 Atlantics or 'baby Streaks' as she has never seen one, let alone multiple before.
* Grey Duchess. [C11 4-4-2] Built after the success of Grey Lady, and sticking with the grey theme, she goes around in the photographic grey livery. Not much is known about her. She is more level headed than her sister Grey Rabbit.
* Grey Rabbit [C11 4-4-2] Built as third in the series of C11 locomotives. Not much is known about her but, she is more spontaneous and quicker off the mark than her sister Grey Duchess.


All characters either belong to myself or the very nice and friendly
Workhaven is a portmanteau or bringing together the town names of Workington and Whitehaven which are within seven miles of each other on the coastline of Cumbria, England, United Kingdom. Living in a more nationalist and social United Kingdom with more pride in the nation, and less selling of national assets and companies to foreign companies, and actually the opposite occurs with British Pride running strong in the Red, White and Blue. Union Kingdom is a leader which many other nations emanulate and follow.
