Description Another addition to the WhippetWildRailway, and we add here some monsters or interesting additions too.

* Top: We have 'Peggy' the Thames Class [4-6-4] locomotive. She has been given a much bigger water tender to help her travel longer distances. Named after my late Grandmother, and thus a top class name and world famous within the WWU. She is also currently being used for promotional terms, as well as promotion the company of 'King Enterprises'. The one whom funded the tour, and goes to push the sister 'Peggy' as a rival of the face of the company next to slightly smaller Pacific sister 'Sarah Shore'.
* Second row: 'Alex' the Trafford Class [4-8-4] locomotive. Seen as part of the Britain in America or British America influence. America's massive size but, British style on show. Also has a massive water and coal tender on the back to help on the long distances between stations and watering stops. He is named partly after the former Manchester United manager, Alex Ferguson, and the 26 years he had in the role. He is also named after my former (autism) advisor, whom really helped me out of my shell, and transition period from unsocial hot head, to very social rational guy, and (indirectly) me becoming the agony uncle, and guy people come out to, and share their secrets with. I am very much honoured when people entrust me with their secrets and ask for my opinion on things.

* Third row: The Auxiliary tender. Created for the 'King Enterprises' company to help their vehicles transport huge loads across the Provinces of British America or United Provinces of America. The tender having seven axles, thus fourteen wheels and able to hold 14,000 gallons of water.
* Fourth Row: K.I.R.A. [ King International Railway Association ]. The umbrella business model company which covers the various railways in Britain, Europe, Australia, North America (N.E.C. and UPA) and South America (Argentina. In the 1930s, Britain was the main purchaser of Argentine beef and grain. And much British culture in Argentina.). K.I.R.A. deals with local politics and makes sure it is in a firm position for integration, building and profit. (Named after my ex whippet whom lived to the ripe old age of 16 years).
* Fifth Row: K.I.L.O. [ King International Licensed Oil ] Created a company to find, refine and redistribute oil from across the Provinces and the East towards the rest of the strong nations, by use of long oil tanker trains, and where actual diesel locomotives are used. Seen but not highlighted. The carriage helps take the suited folk, and those in the know, to the places they have to go. Oil is big business and it would be a shame if the King Enterprises did not have a slice of that very sticky, and wealth creating pie. (Named after my brothers dog but, I spent a huge amount of time looking after him, and he is currently 8 years).


Created by myself

I have renamed the wheel arrangement system, after British places, since the regular one is American. Of course, there are a few gaps but, when I tried to ask for help filling the gaps, I did not get much feedback thus support on them.

The 4-6-4 is based on LNER W1 locomotive.
