Suddery

Suddery is the capital city of Sodor, located on the northern tip of the Isle's peninsula, and the former southern terminus of the Wellsworth & Suddery Railway (W&S) until the extension to Brendam in 1885. The city's motto is "Luoc Sodoris Lux" (Latin: "Luoc, the Light of Sodor").

Suburb
The earliest known accounts of anything related to Suddery was in the 5th Century when Irish missionary St. Louc washed up in what is known today as "Suddery Bay" and was warmly welcomed by the original settlers. He preached to locals and a church was built, which would have Suddery Cathedral built on its site. In 1404, Suddery and the rest of Sodor fell to the control of King Henry IV of England, resulting in a heavy English control of the Sudrian stronghold.

Station
Suddery station was one of the five original stations of the W&S opened in February 1870.

Trivia
Suddery is one of the locations that give its name to the Wellsworth & Suddery Railway, the other being Wellsworth. Suddery's station layout is be based off Abbotsbury station in Dorset, but slightly larger with the addition of a second platform. Abbotsbury was opened by the Abbotsbury Railway on November 9th 1885 and was absorbed into the Great Western Railway (GWR) in 1896. It was passed into British Railways (BR) in 1948 but by then, the platform had been shortened from its original length and by December 1st 1962, the station and its line was closed to all traffic. Little remains of the station but the platform and goods shed survive.

Suddery is normally mentioned to be the headquarters of the Wellsworth & Suddery Railway before and even after the main locomotive she was moved to Brendam.

There used to be a small wharf at Suddery but was removed when Brendam Harbour was built to replace it.
