Biography[]
The Railway Series[]
Victoria and Helena were built in 1882 and worked on the Lakeside branch of the Furness Railway with an engine, Albert. After they became obsolete, Victoria was moved to Sodor and became a summerhouse in a garden near Elsbridge. After being discovered by Thomas' driver, it was decided that she could be restored and used on the tramway from Ffarquhar to the quarry to help Toby, Henrietta and Elsie. She also helps Thomas and Annie and Clarabel on busy days.
Personality[]
Victoria and Helena are easy-going, friendly, and somewhat sentimental. Victoria enjoys reminiscing about the old days, but is thankful about being put back into service. She now works with Toby and Henrietta, and is cheerful to everyone she meets.
