Ivor is a small green tank engine who lives at Grofflen harbour.

Personality[]

A small Welsh tank engine, Ivor likes doing things that people like to do, making tea with water from his boiler, and being with his many friends. That said, he can be wilful and disobedient at times. He doesn't like timetables and, ironically for a tank engine, hates shunting. He is rarely seen without his cheerful and kind-hearted driver, Jones the Steam.

Trivia[]

  • Ivor was created by Oliver Postgate and he was the main engine of his own series (Ivor the Engine) which was broadcasted in 1959 in black and white and between 1975 and 1977 in colour.
  • Ivor didn't have a face in said series and after Tillie to the Rescue, Milan Prsa decided that he would remove Ivor's face since he was always meant to be a mute character, and giving him a face essentially defeated his purpose of being such; his first appearance without a face was in Thomas the Building Engine.
    • A livestream, A Summer Marathon at Celgreb Bay Docks!, gives an in-universe reason for the change; Ivor's face was an experimental animatronic that tested poorly and was removed as such.
  • Upon losing his face, he also regained his old railway's decals.

[1]Among the smaller engines running the Seaside Branch Lines, Ivor is often found either pulling passengers along the seaside (one of his favorite sights on the railway), performing at festivals with his special 3-Pipe whistle (which was made from an old fairground organ), or running the coal mine near Cliffstone Mountain, where Logan the Steam Shunter that resembles a diesel and Bertram the "Old Warrior" work at. He likes doing things that people like to do, making tea with water from his boiler, and being with his many friends. That said, he can be wilful and disobedient at times. He doesn't like timetables and, ironically for a tank engine, hates shunting. He is rarely seen without his cheerful and kind-hearted driver, Jones the Steam.
