Bio
Belle suggested to the Fat Controller that Flynn be brought to Sodor to help her fight fires. Both he and Belle helped Percy save Thomas and Kevin from a fire.

Persona

Livery
Flynn is painted red with yellow lining.

Basis
Flynn is a hybrid design based on Tatra, Osh-Kosh, and Latil fire rescue vehicles. However, he most resembles a 1964 Osh-Kosh W800 4X4 aircraft rescue fire engine.
