Salty

Salty is a dockyard diesel. He is voiced by cgiben.

Bio
Salty was built in 1962. In 2002, he arrived on Sodor.

Salty was called ungrand by Gordon, as Gordon thought he wasn't fast, strong or loud like himself. Salty later proved him wrong by pulling a long train of stone that Gordon couldn't pull, and delivering it to the quarry and coming back within five minutes, and proved he was loud by honking his very loudly. He later helped Thomas and Percy pull the Flying Kipper while Henry was away, until Gordon teased Thomas and Percy about a diesel helping them, so Percy convinced Salty that the dockside was on fire so they could go on without him.

Personality
Salty is hard-working, and loves being near the sea, and will always tell pirate stories to the other engines. Bill and Ben enjoy these stories most of all.

Basis
Salty is based on a BR Class 07 Shunter. A real member of this class inspired Salty's number.

Appearances
TWR Fan plans on writing a season 2 episode for him to star him in alongside James.
