Personality[]

Madison is a kind and friendly tank engine. After overcoming her shyness, she has become very outgoing and is always eager to make new friends.

In Stories From Sodor:Future, Madison became a rather cheeky, but kind engine. She normally behaves well, yet she also gets herself in trouble by jumping into situations without adequately thinking them through first. She can also be somewhat timid.

Basis[]

Madison is based on an SR USA Class 0-6-0T. Originally classified as the USATC S100 Class and designed for shunting duties in Europe during the Second World War, after the war ended, fifteen of these engines were sold to the Southern Railway, who modified them for use as dockyard shunters at Southampton. There, they worked alongside the LB&SCR E2s (Thomas’ class). Both classes were replaced by BR Class 07 diesels (Salty's class) in 1962, though members of the class remained in service on departmental duties until 1966.

Four members of this class are preserved in the UK, including one at the Bluebell Railway and several more exist in various conditions throughout the world. In addition, several Yugoslavian-built copies of the S100 design also exist, including two that have been imported into the UK and modified to represent USA Class members.

Livery[]

Madison is painted cobalt blue with red lining. She has red tank panels and blue wheels with red rims.

Her original design had red wheels with blue rims, as well as the number "13" on her tank in yellow.

Her streamlined design features her painted in NWR blue with red lining, as well as the number "38" on her side in yellow with a red outline. She also has white wheel arches.

When she was first built, Madison was painted dark green with black lining. She had black tank panels on her number "1266" on her cabsides in black.

In the sixteenth season of Stories From Sodor:Future, Madison was repainted NWR blue with red lining and tank panels. She also had her number "38" on her tanks in yellow.

Trivia[]

  • From the sixteenth season onwards, Madison's number is written in the same font used by Reaume Brothers Racing in the NASCAR XFinity and Craftsman Truck series, with the font also being used by RSS Racing for one race in the XFinity series in 2022 when they entered their number 38 car in collaboration with Reaume Brothers.
