Duck

Duck, NWR No. 8, is a GWR 57xx pannier tank engine on the North Western Railway. He arrived at Sodor in 1955 to assist Percy's duties on the Main Line before the latter went to work on the Ffarquhar Branch Line. Duck himself was later assigned to work on the Arlesburgh Branch Line shortly after Oliver's arrival in 1968. He works on this branch line alongside Donald, Douglas, and Oliver. He also has two Great Western autocoaches named Alice and Mirabel.
