Here is Porter, the new saddle-tank engine at Brendam docks. Bit early for this, don't you think? Anyways, Porter: what do I think of him? Quite good, actually.
Although his basis looks like it may be American it could easily be British. It kinda looks like an industrialized J52, although I do also think it looks a bit like the Foxfield railway's 'Florence No.2'. Thing is though, his cab looks like it could be made of wood, a bit like the saddle-tank engine from 'Rails of War'.
The livery is suiting. The dark green fits well, and the sides look as though they have nameplates, and maybe even 'NWR' lettering (although these could just be pipes).
Some say he is the dark green engine from the 'Troublesome trucks' pop-up book, some say he has a giesel funnel. All we know is he is called 'Porter'! (And that he is a saddle-tank engine with outside cylinders and he is an upcoming character)
