Bill And Ben The Sodor China Clay Twins

Biography:
Bill and Ben came to Sodor to work at the Sodor China Clay Pits or SCC. Bill and Ben brung full trucks of china clay to Brendam and then brung the empty trucks back to the clay pits. At first the clay pits and Bill and Ben were both owned by the manager and the company privately owned by the manager. But soon the company along with Bill, Ben and the clay pits were absorbed into the Fat Controllers railway. Bill and Ben liked playing tricks one day Bill and Ben were told to meet the Fat Controller at the harbour they both thought they in trouble. But they didn't know what they were in trouble for luckily they weren't in trouble the Fat Controller told them to shunt trucks and coaches at Tidmouth Harbour. But Bill and Ben didn't have experience with non - faceless trucks. And so the trucks played a trick on the twins the trucks told them they would help them and told the twins where to put them. This made the yard messy so when it was time for the express it took ages to find and fetch the express coaches. Another time Bill and Ben were told to shunt at a yard on Edward's Branch Line. The twins were going to use the turntable for the first time Bill went on first but then when the manager told Bill to get of the turntable the turntable was set onto the wrong track and Bill was blocking Ben's way. Then Bill and Ben got into a quarrel. The Fat Controller had a plan he sent the twins to take a really long and heavy goods train. Ben decided to pull it on his own Bill agreed. But Ben couldn't so Bill and Ben made up their quarrel and pulled the train together. Later Bill and Ben were working in the quarry when there was an avalanche! All workmen climbed into Bill and Ben's trucks. Then Bill left with half the workmen while Ben waited for the quarry manager and then set of. After Bill and Ben's heroic actions the Fat Controller congratulated both engines the two twins were known as heroes at least for a little bit.
