Season 1

 * Desmond's Baker Dash (Main Role)

Railway Adventures
Desmond's model in Railway Adventures was first produced in 1980 by Hornby, which is where the class, name, and livery came from. Mackenzie bought Desmond from a trash and treasure market, (around 2016). Their face was designed by Raz42, before being drawn onto paper with different expressions and cut out, which were then applied to the model. Sometime before Desmond's Baker Dash entered filming, Desmond's motor was removed from their model due to it smoking. After being refitted into the model, their model cut out on points and could not have enough control to film with. Therefore, throughout episode 1, Desmond can be seen being pulled along via fishing wire. They are voiced by handfulmacaroni.
