Soviet Jones

Ted (Soviet Jones) is an Australian engine who works on Chinese Communist Railway (CCR) and is also a founding member of The Soviet League. He's notorious for his previous life as Ted: The Mad Bomber and is currently wanted as a terrorist.

Early Life
Ted was built in 1912-1913 in Britain as a standard Mix traffic engine, he was later sent to work on an Australian Railway. He worked along side the other engines on the railway including the railway's Thomas The Tank Engine. However, this innocent life style would end soon.

The Mad Bomber incidents
During the 1960's a series of events of terrorism known as The Mad Bomber incidents caused destruction across the Australian Railway. The culprit behind the attacks was never found but Ted was caught working with him, reasoning behind the attacks are mostly disputed but a universally agreed one was that it was Communist terrorist attack as months before the attack. Ted later escaped to China and became a political refugee. From then on he could no longer go by the name of Ted and had it changed to Jones. He faked his death and was believed to be dead by Aussie authorities. To this day, Jones continues to lie about the truth about the bombings to this day.

Meeting Soviet Bob
During the late 1960's, he met Soviet Bob in China, at the time Bob was visiting China for a vacation. The two became good friends and after Bob left the country, the two continued talking to each other via letters.

The Foundation of the Soviet League and Early affairs
After the banishment of Bob from Russia, Bob moved to France in 1993 and later to Britain in 99. During his time away from Bob, Jones traveled around the world although mostly in secrecy. He later went to live in The U.K with Soviet Bob and two established the Soviet League on the Island of Sodor. Because of his assistance in the establishment of the League, he was given the Soviet title. The two later helped rescue Adeleine from Ronnie The Eevee. Together the League later went on to fight against terrorism from 2006 to 2011.

The China chronicles
Jones' involvement in the war against was quite limited. He got blasted by with PK Fire by Sans and because of this was flown all the way back to China. He worked on C.C.R for sometime until he was banned by Ganondorf for the death of LeoKimVideo. Jones was sent back to Britain by Yong Bao, this is when Jones found out that the Island of Sodor had been destroyed. He was present during the battle against Butch and later explained to the League how he returned. Him along with Soviet Bob continued to say on the island while Ado led a team to fight against the Eevee. Later on, Jones returned back to China after being "transported to another dimension or something like that", he found that his famous brother, James the Red Engine, was killed during the Brendam Bombings. Jones had later met up with D261 (Andy Diesel) and believed that he knew about the truth behind his past. Jones also became worried when Null began to work on the C.C.R as Null used to work on the same railway Jones worked on when he was Ted. Jones later got rid of an Evil Yong Bao clone along with the real Yong Bao. He was put on Goods work and then worked on a branchline. Jones then got into an accident with Null.

The Strasburg Thomas Affair
The Strasburg Thomas The Tank Engine met up with is old colleagues, Null and Andy and was introduced to Yong Bao. The Thomas noticed Jones next to Yong and was shocked that Ted the Mad Bomber was still alive. He then proclaimed he'd found the Mad Bomber. When Null and Andy caught wind of the situation, the asked about what Ted had previously done. Ted pretended to not know who Ted was.Ted claimed that he wasn't responsible for the attack and that someone stole the bombs he used. It eventually got to the point where Yong Bao told to leave to work on the Heritage Railway and that if he were to return to the C.C.R, he wouldn't defend him against Thomas or Mavis.
