Biography[]
Carly makes her debut at the end of the Season 21 episode, "Cranky at the End of the Line". While Cranky is trying to impress Sir Topham Hatt, he comes face to face with Carly. At first, Cranky thinks that he's being replaced because of his old age. But then, he finds out that Carly is actually his new helper. And when Carly creaks, she tells Cranky that they can use oil to stop their creaking noises. And with that, the two cranes work together clean up the docks.
In "New Crane on the Dock", Carly starts to take over Cranky's jobs, and the engines are always asking her to help them unload their deliveries. And then, Carly and Cranky get their hooks tangled up when they start to move really fast. As they argue, Salty tells them a story that can help them learn how to work together. Afterward, Carly and Cranky untangle their hooks, and they start to work together again. They also hear Big Mickey's voice for the first time. After a brief conversation with Big Mickey, Carly welcomes him to the team.
In "Thomas' Animal Ark", Carly tells Emily that the new boiler delivery is being delayed because of the snowstorm. Overhearing their conversation, Thomas decides to tell Sir Topham Hatt about the delay.
In "Steam Team to the Rescue", Salty falls into the water, and Porter ends up getting flour in his funnel. Because of this, Percy tries to help Carly and Cranky at the docks. Unfortunately, he ends up getting buried under the crates. Even worse, Cranky can't pull Carly up. But luckily, the Steam Team arrives to save the day. They help Cranky pull Carly up, and they load the crates onto the ships.
In "Thomas' Animal Friends", Thomas manages to help Salty knock over the fruit, so that the monkeys can eat them. Afterward, Carly congratulates Thomas while the monkeys eat the fruit.
