He was due to be broken up before he was saved by Vicar of Wellsworth. Kevin is a bubbly and enthusiastic crane who works at the Sodor Steamworks, where he assists Victor in repairing engines. He is innocent, well-meaning, bursting to help and say hello and always eager and ready to lend a helping hook. Kevin is often seen dashing about and tends to be quite clumsy, having a habit of frequently dropping things from his hook and pranging objects as he buzzes about. He often exclaims that it was "a slip of the hook", something that he says so often enough to Victor - who he refers to as "boss" - that he is able to commonly finish the sentence for him.
