Neville Bulleid (MEA)

Personality:   Neville Bulleid is a black tender locomotive for freight trains. Very self-confident and sometimes has a tip or two ready. His class, the Southern Railway Q1, is actually called "Ugly Ducklings", which Neville took with humor. Neville is friendly to everyone he meets. Sometimes he also adjusts his voice, such as when he converses with Salty in sailor language. He sometimes gives good advice to the others, but although he is very confident in his advice, he does not think through some of it completely and overlooks some flaws. However, since James pointed out to him that a lot of his advice wasn't really helpful, he's become a little more shy and less proud of himself. When Neville met James in Knapford one evening, he tried to give him more confidence. He took Neville's lessons to heart, although James later realized that he should stay as he was. Nevertheless, over time he unconsciously became more and more self-confident. The next evening Neville, James and Diesel met again. One night, James talked to Neville about how he was still being treated the same way he used to be. He has much more self-confidence. However, James did not see Neville's advice as very helpful. James confronted Neville about how some of his advice only works for him and doesn't apply to other engines. Or that they sound nice in general, but just don't work in practice. Neville then became thoughtful. One day he happened to meet James and Diesel at Barrow. At this meeting he confided a few things to Diesel and admitted that he is quite vulnerable. James found out that Neville was gay through Diesel. Neville then came to Sodor to briefly talk to James and was upset and angry with James. While some of Sodor's engines were sent to Carlisle to rehearse for the parade, Neville was assigned to help represent them, arriving a little later than the others. When he arrived, he had a long discussion about the LGBT issue with Duck and James. After the parade engines returned, Neville returned to England, but came back to the island during a locomotive shortage on Sodor. After further discussions with James and Diesel, he ultimately stayed on the Sudrian Railway as their number 20.
