Rex

Rex is a green tendered engine. He works for the Arlesdale Railway.

Bio
Rex is the middle aged of the three original engines of the Arlesdale Railway. He was built in 1923. He used to work on a line in England before it closed in 1967. Then, he was transferred to a heritage railway not far from the Bluebell Railway.

In 2002, he was sent to Sodor to help with the building of the Arlesdale Railway. It opened the next year.

Persona
Rex is a sensible engine compared to Mike, but not to Bert. He is willing to help out when Bert isn't feeling well, which is often. He works hard, but he has problems with his traction.
