The fact that Purse, out of all possible characters, was one of the characters to get removed from the post-2018 versions is something that confuses me greatly.
BV's entire thing is that he does dirty deeds done expensive. The only moment I remember him being on stage and not talking about money (or committing crimes for it) was during One Rock N' Roll Too Many. He literally asks Elektra for TWENTY THOUSAND DOLLARS. Which was thirty thousand at first. Slick also being really into money. Control (he isn't a train but he's included) saying that Pearl cost him three weeks worth of pocket money. The Rockies tell Rusty to stop dreaming about "money and fame" (that might be just a German thing but they could have changed that), Dustin saying that freight is great because profit...
I just think that Purse would be essential, especially when money is a relevant and reoccurring topic. I am not one bit biased about this
Bring him back please
#starlight express#purse the money truck#my darling purse🙏#WHERE is Elektra getting his money from without me. WHERE#they should have given Greaseball a money truck too honestly#could be a part of his gang. and where he gets the money to pay BV from#elektra the electric engine#control starlight express#rocky the boxcar#dustin the big hopper#rusty the steam engine#pearl the first class car#slick the oil tanker#bv the brake van

#stex#starlight express#rocky the boxcar#I love the rockies but that’s probably because when I was younger I would watch Rocky II on repeat#I’ve never seen any of the other Rocky movies to be so fr#anyways my favorite Rocky is Rocky 2#what do y’all see the rockies as colorwise#for me its#rocky 1 red#rocky 2 blue#rocky 3 green#rocky 4 pink#genuinely please reply with your Rocky colors I want to know#hot take but I don’t like the hip hoppers at all#I don’t like most of the changes made to modernize Starlight Express#like 2018 Electra#people are like#yeah well his old costume was an outdated version of the future#yeah that’s what makes it peak#CB to Caboose is when it all went downhill#joking tho I love all Starlight Express I just feel like sometimes the show is ashamed of being old

Some headcanons for Freight Appreciation week:
(Playing catch up cause I forgot day 1)
-Except for Hydra (whose favorite brother is Rusty), Lumber is everyone else's favorite brother in the Wembley freight family. He's just a generally well-liked train around the yard, but is especially good friends with Blue Lightning and Orange Flash (he and Blue used to date but ended things amicably).
-Dustin has a crush on Wrench, but he's too shy to try and pursue anything. He does occasionally leave flowers or nice-looking rocks on the repair shed desk for them.
-Slick's favorite flowers are sunflowers, but she generally didn't like to admit that she likes them (or any sort of flower).
-The Rockies are triplets, something of an oddity as multiple births are rare among trains. If Rocky 4 is around, they're a younger sibling.

STEX APPRECIATION MONTH DAY 11: ROCKIES
Favorite Actor(s): Rocky 1: Danny John Jules Rocky 2: Jay Le Marrec Rocky 3: Priscilla Osegie (i must confess these choices arent really based on much lol)
Favorite Song/Scenes: They are the best part of Poppa/Momma's blues I love watching them just dance and be silly. And of course I love Right Place Right Time especially when the actors do the choreo really well.
Favorite Costume(s): I think the Japan Tour and early Bochum really had it down they were so crisp. I'm so fond of Broadway's orange Rocky 1 though it's so funny
Favorite Ships/Friendships: I really like Rocky 1 x British Engine but other than that -3-. Platonically I really like them with the rest of the freight and Rusty! I imagine they love pushing Flat Top's buttons lol
Headcanons: There are a million Rockies. All over the world. Every color known to man. If you put too many together they start having dance battles instead of doing their work.
Unpopular Opinion: I like their costumes way better without the shoulder boxes on I'm honestly glad they don't wear them for long LMAO.
#pardon the silly jokey headcanon its all i got#my art#fanart#starlight express#stex#rocky the boxcar#the rockies stex#rocky 1 stex#rocky 2 stex#rocky 3 stex#me not knowing how to tag them continues#btw. rocky 1: orange rocky 2: yellow rocky 3: green real and true okay

StEx Appreciation Month Day 11: Rockies!
🟦🟨🟩🟥🟦🟨🟩🟥🟦🟨🟩🟥🟦🟨
Face Claims: Lashane Williams (Rocky 1), Martin Boothe (Rocky 2), Priscilla Osegie (Rocky 3), Richard Bodkin (Rocky 4)
Favourite Song/Scenes: Vegas boot where they fight a gang member bullying Rusty! There are also some boots where they square up whenever Greaseball's bothering Rusty or Poppa. Nobody touches their steamers! I also love watching them during Poppa/Momma's blues and Right Place, Right Time!
Favourite Costumes: I love the early Bochum costumes (pink Rocky you will always be famous to me) but I am partial to the 2018 Bochum update color line-up (blue 1, yellow 2, green 3). I like their boxing gloves too but they need to BRING👏BACK👏THE👏BOOTY👏SHORTS
Favourite Ships/Friendships: Rocky 1 x Brexit!! I don't think I have any other Rocky ships EDIT: I FOROR TO ADD FRIENDSHIPS D: They are friends with the freight crew, Rusty, Momma/Poppa, the coaches, and Memphis Belle!
Headcanons: I'm a 4 Rockies truther because the more the merrier!! (and Rocky 4 gets to be pink 😌) They taught Rusty the correct way to punch and block so he can defend himself better when they're not around
Unpopular Opinion: I have no idea how popular/unpopular this is but they could probably get away with casting the Rockies completely gender blind instead of having 1 token female (also stop giving her bright red lipstick please and thank you)
