Ernest Marchain, Jan Apel, Ricky Mujica, Robert Jakeman, and John Williford as the Gang in the first picture, and Jeremy Suarez as a Trax in the second picture.
Okay, truthfully, I don't have any thoughts on either the Trax or the Gang, but I will say this!!! GB x Gang needs to be more popular as a ship!!!! OK that's it goodbye sdfgskgs
I rarely see things about me and my polycule!! Greaseball and his gang!!
So I asked for a quick sketch up of me and my boys. Look how handsome and beautiful we all are!!
I hope just seeing this sketch of my beloveds can inspire someone to draw or write more about the gang! They deserve attention too... not just the components!
Tonight, I learned from Greaseball that his Gear, Tank, and Lube were more like these hair metal/glam rock guys than the concept art of those engines. Yet still had the gang diesel look. I cannot wait to see the art of their designs!
What a rockin polycule. No wonder he wants more content of him and his lovers.
Saw an interview once where the interviewer called Electra the MAIN VILLAIN of the show and to this day I am still so baffled by it because. that's just so wrong. And the actor agreed!! What!!!!!!

I don’t think I actively ship anything, unfortunately but I’m not against shipping them with anyone. Just not put any thought into it.
Headcanons
Gang: I like to think that the gang members and Greaseball all met in high school!
Trax: They used to watch the championships when they were little and since then, they’ve always wanted to become a part of racing in some way!
Unpopular Opinions
Gang: I don’t think I have any?
Trax: I’ve seen people say that the show works just as well if they aren’t there. I’ve seen the show before where they had cut the Trax because none of them were available and I missed them so much!

I dont have a drawing of the marshals/trax... but they were part of my company's fleet. Maybe I can ask my host to draw them...
In the sketchy drawing from left to right: is Tank, Gear, and Lube.
I loved each and one of them so much.. and I do miss them all a lot! They were so fun to be around.
The trax were so nimble, the humans loved seeing how acrobatic giant robots could be.. they were built specifically for events but their other jobs included rail maintenance.
The marshalls were site supervisors from nearby yards, our company wanted to show case a lot of different engines from their fleet for that year's world championship...after all. We were hosting the event and that's why so many of our rolling stock were present compared to other companies.
When i comes to the gang... Lube was my favorite of these three. I loved his hair and playing with it. I really liked his green eyes and just.. I sometimes lay down in bed and think how devastating it must have been for him to see me wrecked...
I know how I feel about losing so many people I loved from my past life when I woke up in this one. It's a feeling no one can really understand...unless you've suffered a huge loss too. It's hard to move on from... sometimes it comes down on me and I feel...so bad... I want them all in my arms again...
Ships? THE FORGOTTEN AND BLATANTLY IGNORED POLYCULE??? ME AND MY GANG? WHY THE HELL WOULD I GO FOR ANY OTHER ENGINE IF MY BELOVED GANG IS HERE? This is the FIRST group you all get introduced to and then you close your eyes and go "I do not see it" ridiculous! They all love me and unlike Electra's components... my gang isn't afraid of being fired because they're all with me on by their own will and love.
Unpopular opinion: They are all forgotten and ignored so much? I really wish there was more content of them by the fandom. There is so little of them when it comes to fan fics! It doesn't even have to be gear, tank, or lube. The gang had many members. You can easily make an oc gang member and it would be fine... its the perfect way to yume ship with GB or to ship your oc with him because it is natural and fits!! You don't need to do any mental gymnastics or turn things around to make it work!!
Greaseball could be polyamorous btw. It's so easy. He can kiss so many engines (his gang) and still date Dinah. Did you know this. Top 10 tips and tricks from me. You are welcome.
