Bio
Speedy McAllister is an old red-violet steam locomotive who comes across as being somewhat gruff and blunt in character, but means well and is helpful to experienced chuggers and trainees alike. He prefers more industrial jobs as opposed to those with a high degree of customer relations. Speedy McAllister likes to take his time and never likes to rush. He is old, wise, and will often take time to think. He prefers doing jobs where there is peace and quiet.

Basis
Speedy McAllister is based on a the CNW Class E-4 locomotive, except Speedy doesn't have a tender. When he collects coal it is deposited through an opening in his roof behind his firebox and water is stored centrally in a tank, much like Olwin.
