"Gordon, a 4-6-2 engine, was built at Doncaster on the other railway as a test engine for a class of which the Flying Scotsman is the only one left. Gordon is a boastful engine, but he works well and the Fat Controller has been heard to remark that he wishes he had two of him. But he is careful no to let Gordon hear him say it!" 
"Gordon is the senior member of the engine family, the fastest and most powerful of Sir Topham Hatt's string - and he knows it. He's extremely proud, often pompous and inclined to boast. He's good-hearted, though, and always willing to forgive and use his superior strength to help smaller engines out of trouble."
