The quarry tramroad (also known as the Anopha Tramway) runs a serpentine five and a half mile course from Ffarquhar to Anopha Quarry - even though a direct route between the two is only one and a half miles! Thomas ran the line until an encounter with a policeman put a stop to it. All because Thomas didn't have sideplates or a cowcatcher. In the end, the Fat Controller bought Toby to solve the problem. The sole traffic on the line is stone with a passenger train to carry workman to and from the quarry. Later, the quarry company bought Mavis to help with the stone traffic.

  • The sole traffic on the line is stone with a passenger train to carry workmen to and from the quarry. Later, the quarry company bought Mavis to help with the stone traffic. In the Railway Series, the line passes a level crossing near the stationmaster's house, then an ungated crossing that goes through Ulfstead Road and follows a lane. It later passes a runaway siding and turns to the left climbing 1 in 60, on a bridge over Arlesburgh Road and a stream. The line climbs the steep hill and follows to the east. It comes to the top where a board is placed: "all trains stop to pin down brakes". A bridge over a stream comes next, where Toby had an accident being suspended over a raging torrent. The line comes to the crossing where Thomas had the encounter with a policeman and the line turns right to the east, directly to the Quarry. Farms and cottages are placed along the line too, for request stops. In the television series, a narrow gorge is also located on this line, where Lorry 2 fell off one of the cliffs.
