Well now, that certainly was informative, you've brought historical information to an engine didn't actually know about. Especially with what Stepney smuggled out of Eastleigh which sounds a barrel of laughs! Superbly edited and well paced, you've brought limelight to Stepney's otherwise forgotten history.

Stepney was always my favorite character as a kid, I was always drawn to his paint scheme and the cheerful little theme he had in Season 4 of the TV Series. I also loved Alec Baldwin's voice for Stepney in Season 5. I wish that they would do a BWBA episode where Thomas visits the Bluebell Railway and sees Stepney again, I mean after all, Britain is outside of Sodor and if Thomas can visit America then why not the UK?

Technically Thomas is in the UK because he was built there as a mix of other engines, like the extended side tanks of the rebuilt E2s (basically one of Thomas' base classes which would form him into the way he is, other railways like the Dean Forest Railway and Thomas' original home railway, the London Brighton & South Coast Railway) and the coal bunker of the E1s for example.

Stepney for me represents one of the first pieces of Thomas & Friends merch I ever had. My Granddad bought his ERTL model when I was very young (probably only just starting to show interest in the show). Of course since he's (Granddad not the ERTL) long gone now the model remains very important to me, and by extension, the real locomotive itself (but I do have a great love for small engines like the Terriers anyway).

I would love to see Stepney one day. The Terriers are just a great class of loco. I love seeing Boxhill at the NRM, and Martello at Bressingham (even though it wasn’t in Marsh umber and wasn’t running that day). They have great proportions, a wide choice of liveries and all the surviving examples have an interesting story to tell.

Also, minor anecdote: When I went to the NRM for one of its steam galas, I was compoletely overwhelmed and had to sit down. When my head cleared, I'd realised that I had sat down staring right at Stepney, who was still in his BR Black livery at the time. I got to hop into his cab to take a look, which was really neat! (and interesting, as despite the exterior being black, his cab interior was actually a light cream colour). That really made my day.

When I went to the Bluebell Railway, 3 times to visit. The first time I went, was on a normal day out. And I'd recognised Stepney, a tank engine that used to be in the "Thomas the Tank Engine" books and videos. The second 2 times I went was on a Thomas event, one at Horsted Keynes and then the other at Kingscote, where I found Stepney with Percy, on the bay platform
