Rusty was originally a trailer who runs through the Silverhatch and is Big Chris' current home on wheels who lives at Silver Hatch. He is often found to be sleeping, but rarely minds being woken up by the other characters, and he enjoys reminiscing about his time as a mobile caravan. He can give useful advice, but often entirely by accident.
