Derek the Steam Engine #2 - "Derek and Benjamin" Talkback

Derek the Steam Engine #2 - “Derek and Benjamin”

Original Release Date: November 23, 2018

Benjamin is named after Benjamin Holt, president and one of the founders of the Holt Manufacturing Company, which was the first company to create continuous track tractors. The Holt Manufacturing Company later merged with a competitor, C. L. Best, to form what would be known today as Caterpillar, Inc.
