UP 836

UP 836 is a ghost engine.

Bio
On June 18, 1953, UP 836, having just been equipped with a new whistle, had to take a passenger train during a heavy storm. Unfortunately, the old bridge couldn't support his weight, and he fell off the bridge, killing himself and injuring many passengers.

Nowadays, the 836 rides the rails as a ghost, occasionally derailing other trains and causing other trouble. However, it can only come back to life if something is around with enough energy to bring it back.

In June of 1976, The Project rode across the bridge, bringing the 836 back as a ghost due to the Project's own supernatural energy. Throughout the next day, the 836 was mysteriously watching the Project, even saving it from the other engines several times.

In June of 2013, Steve visited the area, which was able to bring 836 back due to Steve's historical significance with the 836. Eddy happened to believe in 836's ghost story, which got 836's attention set on Eddy. For the next few days, the 836 derailed several UP trains and even made Mark mysteriously vanish, which got Steve sent away. After one wreck, the other engines turned on Eddy for supposedly frightning people with the myth. The 836 saved Eddy several times, and on June 23, kidnapped Eddy, ending the accidents and bringing his ghostly activity to an end.
