Product Description

From the Manufacturer

Harvey is big-hearted and relentlessly cheerful. Mocked by James and Gordon for not looking "normal" when he arrived, Harvey proved himself to be very useful by clearing up after a crash. He is now a popular addition to the group. He's a mainline worker, but because of his shape, doesn't fit into the Tidmouth Sheds and has to park parallel. This means he can overhear the principal characters' conversations, but not quite join in. His voice booms, and he loves helping others. He's happy working in the yards, the Docks and building sites, but his true home is in the "Sodor Water Works."

5.0 out of 5 stars Harvey the crane engine, September 1, 2005

By 

Rowan "Rowan" (Meadville, Pa) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Thomas And Friends Wooden Railway - Harvey (Toy)

If your child likes playing with Thomas & Friends trains, Harvey was brought to the Island of Sodor because accidents happen. At first, the big engines teased Harvey because of his unique look, but Harvey soon showed his stuff by clearing the tracks when Percy's freight cars derailed in the way of Bertie's path. After that day, nobody ever teased him again.

I recommend Harvey a little bit more than Butch, another character with a tow arm, because Harvey is for the rails and his crane arm is more flexible and durable. I recommend Harvey if you want to have a ready-for-anything crane engine added to your collection.

Harvey is a crane engine who was introduced in Salty's Secret. He can pull the other engines along with coaches or trucks. His magnet works perfectly and Harvey is espically good for your money.

I thought for sure that some movable part on this engine would break, or that the engine would be perpetually tipping over. Neither has happened in the year+ we've owned Harvey. The magnet is strong enough to pick up another engine, or paper clips, coins, etc. The more moving parts, the more interesting the engine, and Harvey's got the goods!
