“Ol' Wheezy can be wild! And Hee-Haw..."
"...is just plain crazy!"
"That's right!”

― Dash, Bash, and Ferdinand, Jumping Jobi Wood!, fourteenth season

Hee-Haw is a steam donkey crane that is stationed on Misty Island.

Bio

When Thomas refused to work with Ol' Wheezy, he had Hee-Haw put to use to move the Jobi Wood. The Logging Locos tried to tell Thomas not to use Hee-Haw as he uses a lot of oil, which they need to run.

Later, Hee-Haw had ran out of oil and he bellowed thick black smoke all over Thomas, James and the Fat Controller. Dash's driver had to repair Hee-Haw and refuel him with oil. During winter time, Hee-Haw and Ol' Wheezy were decorated for the Misty Island Christmas party.

Persona

Despite not being sentient, Hee-Haw is referred to as a male and according to Bash, Dash and Ferdinand they describe him as "plain crazy".

Basis

Hee-Haw is based on Swansboro Land and Lumber Railroad's steam donkey, widely used in logging operations.
