This train engineer is a character in The Walking Dead: The Telltale Series. He briefly appeared as a corpse and in a photograph.
Pre-Apocalypse[]
Rural Georgia[]
Before the outbreak broke out, this train engineer was a simple family man who had a wife, two sons, and a job as a train engineer with a railroad freight company. His job required him to travel frequently in the state of Georgia from city to city, delivering and receiving freight. The conductor was assigned to Train 4070, where he made his cab more at home by placing his own maps and documents, a picture of his family, and even a guide for starting up the train around the area.
Post-Apocalypse[]
Season One[]
At some point early on during the outbreak, the engineer conducted a freight train southbound toward Savannah. His train crashed in between stations at a train crossing, possibly due to an unnamed driver crashing into the engine car. The crash derailed much of the train and caused the engineer to slam his face into the front window. The impact crushed his head, killing him instantly.
"Long Road Ahead"[]
Lee and his group arrived at the train crossing around three months later, driven by Kenny, who had repaired the RV at the Travelier Motel. The train blocked the road, forcing the survivors to get out and see if there was a way to get around it. When Lee and Ben prepared to enter the engine car, Lee saw the engineer slumped in his chair from behind, believing that he was a walker. The two of them silently entered the cabin with Lee readying his weapon. After Lee strikes his head from behind, (Determinant) the engineer's body falls against the window, letting Lee see the impact it had made months earlier. Lee moves his body out of the chair onto the ground, letting Ben see the head wound. Ben notices that there was a blinking light on the controls, which he pushes to deactivate the train's brakes. When Kenny enters the vehicle, Ben drags the engineer's body out of the cabin and sets it down beside the wrecked car outside.
Death[]
- Killed By
- An unnamed driver (Possibly, Caused, Accidental)
- Train Crash
Following the apocalypse's outbreak, his train was involved in a serious crash that derailed most of his freight. The massive concussion of the impact forced the engineer's head forward, sending it crashing through the window. This caused a large portion of his head to be crushed, instantly killing him and thus preventing him from reanimating due to the cranial damage.
