SleepingFlashWood is a rarepair in the StEx fandom. Mostly due to the three not interacting in the show. Some fans like to ship the three together due to Belle being often shipped with both Lumber and Orange Flash. There are no popular rival ships, though some could argue that the ships involving the three's racing partners could be considered rivals. Though QuietFlash, Wood Lightning and Silver Sleep are less popular ships by comparison.
As well as some shipping them for purely aesthetic reasons. As Lumber and Belle's blue and purple are analgoue colors on the color wheel, while orange is complimentary to both. Making for an aesthetic between the three that pops. Fans also like to ship them due to them all being a different type of train. With Belle being a coach, Lumber being a freight and Flash being an engine. Shipping the three types of trains together being a popular thing among fans of the Wembley production. Often the three are considered by fans to be some of the more level headed members of their respective train types. With it often being portrayed in fics that Orange Flash is one of the only engine's to keep the other in check, Belle being more of a big sister figure to the coaches, as she took Ashley's place in the show who had that role, and Lumber often being considered the oldest for fans of the Fuel Siblings theory.
