Big Tim

Timothy "Big Tim" Timken is a diesel engine who lives at Kahlville Junction.

Personality
Timothy "Big Tim" Timken is one of the longer (but short hieghted) diesels on the Crotoonian Railways, and one of the few fitted with a big booster unit! Back in the 50's, Big Tim was the talk of the railyards and workshops in America! His revolutionary roller bearings, that prevented "Kid Friction" from creating a hot box, were a big help to mending problems with the rail cars and engines! Nowadays, they don't seem as special, but Big Tim doesn't mind nor seem too conceited about it. He's just happy to roll along his fine little rails, hauling loads of freight up and down the line. He's still got hints of the over-excitement and jovial attitude from his young days, but he's still a hard worker, and will be on hand the keep the freight of Crotoonia running on time no matter what.

Basis
Big Tim is an EMD F-Unit. Wilson is another member of this class.

Livery
Big Tim is painted cool yellow with red lining. He carries the number 22 and his name "Timothy Timken" on his sides.

Trivia
