Ulfstead is a mountain village located north-west of Ffarquhar, near the centre of Sodor. It is famous for the nearby Ulfstead Castle.
History
Ulfstead is connected to the North Western Railway via a line from Arlesdale End, which connects the village to both Toby's Branch Line and the Ffarquhar Branch Line.
As the village itself is set deep within the mountains, it is susceptible to being snowed in. Once, Harold had to drop hot food and drinks for the villagers during Christmas. The line leading to the town was cleared by Thomas and Percy, who also brought Terence to clear the village itself.[1]
