Boulder Quarry

"We should have left this part of the island alone."

- Sir Topham Hatt, Rusty and the Boulder, fifth season

Boulder Quarry was one of the most short-lived industries on the Island of Sodor. It is located off the Ulfstead Branch Line.

Built up in the hills, the quarry was operated by the narrow gauge engines, who collected rock and transported it the exchange sidings of the North Western Railway. However, when Thumper was digging into a mountain with a boulder perched on top of it, the boulder fell down the mountain and landed on the track, causing chaos and runaways. After this, the Fat Controller decided to close down the quarry. George, Terence and Butch have also worked here.

It only appeared in the fifth season episodes, Bye George!, Duncan Gets Spooked, and Rusty and the Boulder.
