Template:Location Crosby, originally Croshbyr, is a small seaside town renowned for its fresh air.

History

Crosby is named after an impressive stone cross made for the town's churchyard in the eleventh century. C&B Barber, M.C. BUNN, and Crosby Coal Company are located here. According to some magazines, a castle is located near the station as well. Duck once crashed into the barber's shop, and Gordon collided with the last truck of the former's train here.

Until 1912, Crosby was the Wellsworth and Suddery Railway's terminus; then the line was extended to Knapford. During the same year, a tunnel about 1.6 kilometres (1 mile) in length was built.

In the television series, it appeared in the second and fifth seasons. It was later mentioned in the seventeenth season episode, Gordon Runs Dry.

Trivia

  • On some maps of Sodor, it is misspelt "Crusby".
  • The barber shop was removed from the siding in Season 5.
