"She's as precious as gold."

Lady

Configuration: 0-4-0

Lady is a Victorian-style steam engine who runs the Magic Railroad.

Bio

Lady was chased and wrecked by Diesel 10 long ago and was brought to safety by Burnett Stone. She was brought back to life with the help of Burnett's granddaughter Lily after being stored at Muffle Mountain for years, and helped Thomas defeat Diesel 10.

She and Rusty later appeared in a dream to Thomas. She told Thomas how to resolve the problems Sodor was facing.

Livery

Lady is painted red-purple with gold head lamps on the front footplate, gold buffers, smokebox and funnel top, dome and whistles, side rods, lining and her name on each side in gold. She is also painted black on her cab roof, lower funnel section and her footplate.

Basis

Lady doesn't seem to be based on any real locomotive prototype, but it has been suggested that she bears some resemblance to a K&SER Northiam with the rear cab cut off and an enlarged chimney. She is also said to be based on "Lively Polly", owned by the Liverpool Overhead Railway Company.

Appearances

Lady has appeared in:

Voice Actors

Britt Allcroft
Marina Watanabe (Japan; Thomas and the Magic Railroad)
Miyu Matsuki (Japan; Calling All Engines!)

Trivia

When ERTL was making Lady, their prototype model was Rheneas' model repainted in Lady's livery. However, it was decided that the release model of Lady should look exactly like her.
Lady has a coupling on her back, but not on her front.
Lady's face is only visible on Sodor.
Originally Lady wasn't going to have a speaking role in Thomas and the Magic Railroad, her only way of communicating was "telepathy" with Thomas when he was on Muffle Mountain and her whistle. She was later given lines so Britt Allcroft could have a role in the movie.
One of Lady's models is currently on display in Japan.
