Alain is a Blue Engine

Basis[]
According to the History of the Railway Series page on the Sodor Island Fansite, Alain would have been based on a BR Standard Class 2. Alain is logically a 2MT 2-6-0 instead of a 2MT 2-6-2T, as none of the tank engines were sent to the Barry Island Scrapyards. They were physically the smallest of the BR standard classes; 65 were built. Three engines of this class survive, all of which were saved from the Woodham Brothers Scrapyard in Barry, South Wales. A fourth is undergoing conversion to tank engine form on the Bluebell Railway.
Steven, Ellie, and Barry are also based on this engine.
