The Whispering Woods is a forest along the Main Line west of Kellsthorpe Road, near the junction for the Main Line Loop. It should not be confused with the Whistling Woods.
History
The schoolchildren's summer picnic is held here. Percy once took Lady Hatt here, where she admired some bluebells near the line.[1] On another occasion, Thomas took a composer to hear the sounds of Sodor here, but was interrupted by Mavis.[2]
Appearances
Trivia
- In the twelfth series, the set used for the Whispering Woods was redressed from Henry's Forest, with the Sodor Wishing Tree removed and bluebells added nearby.
