Brendam
From Thomas the Tank Engine Wikia
Brendam is a town with a population of 5000, and is also the top station for Edward's branchline and an important harbour. Bill and Ben bring china clay from the nearby China Clay Workings, and it is shipped to the mainland.
The Sodor China Clay Company, established in 1948, occasionally hosts days when enthusiasts may look around. Bill and Ben particularly enjoy the attention these visitors give them.
In the television series, a coastal branchline runs from the port, and is mainly used for fish traffic. It also appears that the Express stops here on its way to Vicarstown, to collect passengers from the many ocean liners that come in here. The mail barge also docks here.
The Sodor Shipping Company has a number of large warehouses here.
Brendam was inspired by Par, Cornwall. It is often misspelt "Brendham", particularly in merchandising.
