The Ginger-haired Carpenter is a carpenter.
Biography[]
When a set of points broke down the Main Line, Gordon was tasked with taking an engineer to the points, so they can be repaired. When Gordon arrived at Maron, he saw the carpenter holding a toolbox and mistook him for the engineer. After the carpenter has climbed aboard the coaches, Gordon left before Bertie could arrive with the engineer and other passengers. The carpenter was enjoying his time, as he was the only passenger and he did not have to stop at any station. When Gordon arrived at the broken points, the carpenter got out and stated that he was not an engineer and thought that Gordon was taking him to Brendam Docks. After Gordon realised his mistake, he left the coaches and went back for the engineer.
