BoCo is a diesel who was built in September 1958 and arrived on Sodor in 1965 to work on Edward's Branch Line. He is a wise and kind diesel who loves to work.

Bio

Once BoCo came to the North West Railway, he had to deal with Bill and Ben's nonsense as they played a trick on him. Edward soon settled them and told them about BoCo. Then, he threatened to take away the cars he had bought for them when they were teasing Gordon, back when the big engine wandered down Edward's branch. Edward and BoCo then became friends. Since then, he has worked on the Wellsworth-Brendam Bay Branch.

Basis

BoCo is based on the BR Class 28 diesel-electric engine, famous for its Co-Bo wheel arrangement.

Boco's BR number belonged to a real BR Class 28. The real D5702 was built on 29 September, 1958, and was withdrawn on 7th September, 1968, before being scrapped at J. Cashmore Scrapyards the following year.
