Stepney then returned for the twelfth season episode Rosie's Funfair Special, though oddly he only spoke in the American dub and not in the original British dub. In the seventh season, he had one non speaking role and a cameo, but these were all made up of stock footage from the sixth and fourth seasons. He then made a few speaking roles in the sixth season but he only spoke in the American dub and not the British dub. Stepney then made an appearance in the fifth season, being the main character of the episode Stepney Gets Lost. His other episodes in Season 4 followed the Railway Series.

It is widely accepted that in the TV series, Stepney works on a small branch line near the Skarloey Railway on Sodor, not the Bluebell Railway. Like Oliver, he was sitting in a scrapyard, all rusty and ready to be scrapped when Rusty the Diesel saved him. He first appeared in the Fourth Season episode Rusty to the Rescue.

Stepney's introduction in the Television Series was much different than in the RWS.

Stepney himself is a real life engine built in 1875 and was rebuilt into a A1X in 1912. Mostly nicknamed "Terriers" (due to the "bark" of the exhaust beat) these engines were withdrawn between 19 with ten being preserved. Stepney is based on the LB&SCR A1 class, a class of locomotives built from 1872 to 1880. He was transported back to Sodor in May 2015, however, for Thomas's 100th birthday. It is unknown whether he will get a much needed overhaul. In 2014, he was withdrawn from service following a failure of his main steam pipe, shortly after coming back from Sodor. He first visited Sodor in 1962 and has visited Sodor many times since then. He worked on the railway for 12 years until 1960 when he was withdrawn and preserved by the Bluebell Railway, being one of the first steam engines to be preserved. Stepney was built in 1875 and originally worked on the London, Brighton and South Coast Railway (LB&SCR).īeginning in 1923, he began working on the Southern Railway (SR), which absorbed the LB&SCR following the Railways Act of 1921.įollowing the nationalization of the four major railways in the United Kingdom in 1948, Stepney then began to work on British Railways.
