Locations

- Sodor Dieselworks
- Brendam Docks
Possible Goof
In theory, what the workmen wear would be considered unsafe by modern standards. For example no hardhats, safety vests, or eye protection. Since years are never said, there is no definite error, though there is a good chance of it. The possible reason for it being correct is that the TV series is set before the 1970s. However, some episodes show quarry workmen and miners wearing hardhats and, since the CGI switch-over hardhats and eye protection have been more present.
