Jack is a red front loader.
Bio
Jack joined The Pack in 2002. He was very hyper when he first arrived and eager to jump in. However, this lead to an accident when he fell over whilst carrying rocks that were too heavy for him. But Jack redeemed himself when he saved Thomas after a bridge collapsed.
In 2014, he and Terence worked alongside George, and ignored his typical ranting.
In 2016, he, Alfie, and Oliver the Excavator were delivered by Henry to investigate a mysterious sound at an old plant, which turned out to be Jim in an underground bunker.
Personality
Jack is brave and will not take any hassle, as seen whenever he stands up to Max and Monty when they bully him and Alfie. He is also kind and caring.
Basis
Jack has no real basis. However, the Thomas the Tank Engine Wiki claims he is similar to a International 454 tractor after his physical appearance was changed for King of the Railway.
Trainz Model
His model is from Hilltracks Trainz Routes.
