Diesel 0: the prototype. Designed and built by a German railway engineer who was curious to see if he could design an engine that could move on its own. He succeeded, but the capabilities of the programming were surprisingly limited, given that it was a prototype. The designs later caught the interest of a British railway engineer, who bought the designs for $400, and went on to develop the rest of the numbered Diesels.
Being a prototype, he never officially entered service, and the German engineer, now in his mid-70s and desperate for money, was left with no choice but to sell the prototype for a meager $2000 to a scrapyard.
And then we can have a whole plot with the rescue of Diesel 0
to Clarify: Diesel 1 was the first "official" numbered Diesel, but Diesel 0 was the prototype that enabled the development of the rest of the numbered Diesels to be possible.

I also want to create a love interest for Diesel 10. If you can come up with a name for her, I would be much obliged. I'll PM you about this, I have an idea. It's been a while now, and you haven't PMed me yet. Did you forget?

Hey, guys, frankthetriviaman and I have created the rest of the Numbered Diesels โ you'll find the list on the Wiki โย so there's no need for suggestions anymore. Thus, considering that this was originally called 'General Numbered Diesels Discussion', I'll change it to that again. Feel free to post here any ideas for future plots and such!

An interesting point of discussion- what will become of Diesel 5? He will eventually be rescued, but the fact remains he is still obsolete; how could he re-enter service?
