Kirk Ronan (T&F)

Kirk Ronan (Sudric for Ronan's Church) is a port town on Sodor's southern coast and the terminus of the Kirk Ronan Branch Line.

History
The station only appeared in the fifth series as a terminus station, seemingly replacing Knapford. It has four platforms and four terminal tracks, with half the station covered by a glass roof. The station building is on the western platform, along with a stall selling flowers. A panoramic view is situated over tracks 1 and 2, overlooking the town.

When the station was built, Gordon took a trial express there; he was initially impressed by the station, but was disappointed to find it lacked a view. Later, at the grand opening, his brakes malfunctioned and he ran through the buffers, causing major damage to both himself and the station wall. The wall was soon repaired and as an extra adjustment, a custom-made hole shaped like Gordon’s smokebox and funnel was made in the wall where Gordon crashed, named "Gordon's View" and intended as a panoramic view for Gordon. Lady Hatt's birthday party was once held here.

The Pudding Factory, the Toy Factory, the Sodor Bakery, the Cement Works and The Big Dipper are all located near Kirk Ronan.
