The Highland Engines worked on the Highland Railway in Scotland. These engines were painted in a yellow-green livery, and Donald and Douglas nicknamed them Jocks.

Biography

The Railway Series

When Douglas saw a new engine on the Arlesdale Railway with a similar livery, it reminded him of his days in Scotland when he worked with the Highland engines and suggested the name "Jock" for the new engine. The engine was delighted, and the Small Controller happily named the engine "Jock." [1]
