Jensen

"'Well hey Henry, I'm Jensen. I'm assigned here for passenger service, usually big hauls like the Powhatan Arrow.'""-Jensen introducing himself to Henry"Jensen is the deuteragonist of Psychosis.

Bio
Jensen was friends with Rorick throughout Psychosis, but unlike Rorick, Jensen was welcoming of the new diesel engines, not suspecting them of eventually replacing the steam engines. He was quick to become friends with Henry, the new diesel, and tried to get Rorick to not worry about replacement. Sometimes when he was unassigned, he would go visit his friend Norton, who was wise and even gave him some advice.

When Rorick was pulled out of service and began going insane, Jensen began to worry about him even more. After Rorick's diesel battle, Jensen tried to find him with the help of Henry, only to be chased down the line by Rorick with his heavy coal train. Eventually the tracks were switched, and Jensen ran into the side of Rorick's train, derailing himself.

Three months later, Jensen was seen pulling the Powhatan Arrow with Henry after being repaired.

Basis
Jensen is a Norfolk and Western 4-8-4 J Class numbered 604.
