Vicarstown

Vicarstown is a small town, at the eastern side of Sodor. The Main Line operates the station. When the NWR formed, Vicarstown was the North Western Railway's headquarters and terminus from 1915 until 1925. An agreement with the LMS in 1925 allowed NWR trains to stop at Barrow-in-Furness, and the railway's headquarters relocated to Tidmouth; which later on relocated to Knapford. For Main Line passenger trains, this is as far as non-express trains reach; unless an engine has been ordered to take special goods trains to the The Other Railway by The Fat Controller. At Vicarstown is a yard.

Thomas was a station pilot here from 1915 until 1924, when he was awarded his own branch line after helping James when he suffered a nasty accident while pulling a goods train. Also, Edward used to often take goods trains from Vicarstown down to Wellsworth and Brendam Docks. When Tidmouth became the new railway headquarters, Edward picked up goods train from here instead; and later on from Knapford after Tidmouth itself was replaced by it as railway headquarters.

As Vicarstown was no longer the railway's headquarters; the big station was demolished in 1926 and a smaller station was built to replace it.
