High Tower is a remarkable structure built by the Vikings during their stay on Sodor. It is situated close to the Mine Junction.
Appearance[]
High Tower is, as its name suggests, a tall tower. It is built of wood, with a red roof and a yellow window. It has a track ending in buffers in front of it, as well as tracks running past.
History[]
Long ago, when the Vikings found Sodor as a refuge, they constructed a tall wooden structure to keep a watchful eye on their enemies from afar. When the Vikings left, the tower became wobbly and overgrown, but still has a panormaic view of the High Hills where the Skarloey Railway Engines work, as it is nestled quite close to the modern-day mine junction.
However, as the railway built their industry around the old tower, Donald accidentally crashed through some nearby buffers and caused High Tower to collapse.
A "High Tower Mark 2" is currently being constructed as a reminder of Sodor's Past. Miss Jenny Packard and The Thin Controller are working tirelessly so the Tower can stand tall once more.
