North Western Railway (fictional) : ウィキペディア英語版 | North Western Railway (fictional)
The North Western Railway is the main railway company featured in The Railway Series of children's books by the Rev. W. Awdry. Although the company's name has never been specifically stated in the books, it was mentioned as such in tie-in books such as ''The Island of Sodor: Its People, History and Railways'' by the Rev. Awdry, and also on some maps that were drawn to accompany the Railway Series. The railway is situated on the fictional Island of Sodor and is usually referred to as the Fat Controller's Railway after the nickname of its chief executive or chairman Sir Topham Hatt. The railway's motto is "Nil Unquam Simile", which is Latin for "There's nothing quite like it"! In the television series Thomas & Friends, which is based on characters from the Railway Series books, the NWR is the main standard gauge railway on Sodor but the railway is known as the "Sodor Railway", "The Fat Controller's Railway", or "The Big Railway" in episodes focusing on the Skarloey Railway. The Adventure Begins marks the very first time the name North Western Railway is used in the television series. ==NWR railway lines==
