Murdoch is March's
Engine of the Month

Murdoch

Bio:

Murdoch is Sodor's largest and strongest engine (even bigger than Gordon) with 10 driving wheels. He is painted orange, and is one of the few engines on the Standard Gauge railway to have nameplates on his sides.

Murdoch helps haul long goods trains on the Main Line, and is good friends with Salty and Harvey. But in spite of his size, Murdoch is a gentle giant, who is often shy and prefers some peace and quiet when the hustle and bustle of the city life becomes too much — and there is nothing better for him than a quiet run through the countryside.

Fun Fact:
Murdoch is based on the Class 9F freight engines; the last steam engines to be built for British Railways in 1960.
