- “I'd like to be a queen. Queens are in charge and tell everyone what to do.”
- ― Emily, "Emily Knows Best", ninth season
Template:Infobox character
Emily is a large green Stirling Single.
Bio
Emily was built in 1870 and lived in Glasgow before arriving on Sodor in 2003. The other engines ignored her for pulling Annie and Clarabel without permission, and Thomas was furious too. The matter was resolved after she saved both Thomas and Oliver from a nasty accident on the cross-points, and she was rewarded with two new coaches, Martha and Jennifer. She now works mainly on Thomas' branch line.
Emily is one of the few female engines on the North Western Railway, and has been made part of the "Steam Team".
Appearance
Emily first appeared in the seventh season.
Persona
Emily acts as a sisterly figure to the others, but can get into trouble or be fussy. She's a lot nicer than she lets on.
Basis
Emily is based on a GNR Stirling Single, of which there is only one left in the world, located at the National Railway Museum in York.
Livery
Emily is painted in the emerald livery of the Great Northern Railway with gold lining and chocolate running-boards.
