History

Bluffs Cove is a small coastal station, consisting of a single platform and a shelter for passengers. It is primarily known for its beach, which is on the opposite side of the tracks from the station. Once, a whale was once stranded on the beach here, but was rescued after being spotted by Toad.

Bluffs Cove is also home to a school, which is situated nearby the station. On his first day on Sodor, Dennis was sent to deliver roofing slates to the school at Bluffs Cove, but manipulated Thomas into doing most of the work for him. Eventually, after crashing into a field while trying to avoid work, Dennis learned his lesson and completed the job with Thomas' help.
