Bio

Trevor used to work on farms doing odd jobs like threshing corn and sawing timber, but his owner thought him old-fashioned and sent him to the scrapyard. Edward luckily befriended him and convinced Rev. Charles Laxey to purchase him. Trevor now lives in the Wellsworth vicarage orchard, but is often borrowed by his old driver Jem Cole to do odds jobs.

Persona

Trevor is very friendly and gets on like wildfire with the engines. He is also helpful and ready to give anybody advice. Trevor loves children in particular, especially giving them rides in his cart.

Basis

Trevor is based on a William Foster and Co. eight-ton traction engine built in the 1920s for farm work and hauling heavy loads, and previously owned by the Reverend W. Awdry's friend the Reverend Teddy Boston.

Appearances

In the Railway Series, Trevor appeared in "Edward the Blue Engine" and "Thomas and the Twins".

In the television series, he first appeared in the second season and has appeared in every season since, except the fifth and eleventh. He also appeared in The Great Discovery with no lines.
