    Patrick 
 * Number: 6
 * Former Name: Lord Harry, Old Harry

Lord Harry, currently named Patrick after a climber, is a mountain engine.

Bio
Lord Harry was built at Winterthur in Switzerland in 1922, to a "super-heat" design, and arrived on the Culdee Fell Railway in March 1962, where he was named after the railway's chairman, Lord Harry Barrane. Lord Harry was troublesome and frightened his coaches by taking risks. After he came off at Summit, Lord Harry was stripped of his name and sent to the back of the shed. After he heard the tale of Godred he asked for a second chance, and was given one, as a lowly shunting engine. However, when a message came warning that some climbers needed help during a gale #6 went to the rescue, and was fittingly renamed "Patrick" in honour of a climber who risked his life to help the others.

Persona
Lord Harry was arrogant, pompous and reckless at first, but learnt his lesson after his mountain rescue. Now, he only takes risks if absolutely nessecary.

Basis
Lord Harry is based on "Padarn" of the Snowdon Mountain Railway.

Livery
Lord Harry is painted CFR purple with orange lining. In the magazines, he is painted green with red lining.

Appearances
Lord Harry only appeared in "Mountain Engines".
