Template:Infobox character Template:Infobox character There are two types of Branch Line Coaches on the North Western Railway.
There were a number of orange four-wheeled coaches used on secondary and branch line services. They were usually pulled by Edward, Henry and James. Annie and Clarabel seem to be the only orange coaches left.
In the television series, the red coaches are usually pulled by Duck and Oliver on their branch line or by Edward on his branch line, but are also used by Henry and James on the Main Line. They were also pulled by Stepney on his branch line.
Basis
