Several other engines worked alongside Duke, Stanley, Falcon and Stuart on the former Mid Sodor Railway. By 1936, the Mid Sodor had six locomotives (excluding Stanley), three of which (Albert, Jim and Tim) were sold off that year to keep the company's head above water, leaving only Duke, Falcon and Stuart to run the line.
Although these engines never appeared in any of The Railway Series stories, they appeared on the Reverend W. Awdry's model layouts of the Mid Sodor Railway. Though their existence was implied, they were never mentioned by name. Some of these engines were on display at the Reverend Teddy Boston's Cadeby Light Railway before the railway finally closed in 2005.
In the television series, Skarloey, Rheneas and Duncan made various cameo appearances on the Mid Sodor Railway as though they were depicted as the other engines working alongside Duke, Falcon, Stuart and Smudger.
