Description Lucy is an effortlessly charming, authoritative, smooth talking old country girl from the highlands of Ireland where she previously worked in quarries with nothing but trucks, though she did take an occasional passenger train if demand arose. She's not as old as some of the engines on Sodor, but upon looking at her work reports you wouldn't believe it, as she has a perfect record of working without incident and is extremely experienced with handling both trucks and coaches without a single complaint. But despite her experience and wisdom, her personality shows no trace of it, playing harmless practical jokes on workmen, enjoying winding up other engines, and even has a tendency to speak sarcastically with elders simply out of fun. However, it is due to this combination of experienced wisdom and childlike playfulness that has made her popular amung nearly everyone.

Nearly.

Having to pull heritage trains up and down the Skarloey Railway, give lectures about the history of the line, and participating on charity events is not how Lucy imagined her retirement years, but between a choice of relocation and being sent for scrap she clearly wasn't in a position to be choosy. And on the bright side, there's Duncan to tease, and... well, there's Duncan to tease.

All these descriptions are great.
I wonder if I sent a locomotive or two your way, you may consider creating one for them.

I mean once I create a steam engine, I have a little trouble giving them a biography or a background story.
