A while back 'Percy' from the Thomas the Tank range was not getting any track time, so was altered. His face removed and a simple repaint into Kirkstall & East Seacroft Railway green. A new name of 'Zephyrus' and K&ESR has a new locomotive.

Now it is the turn of 'Thomas'. His face removed and the hole filled in.
