  • ソドー島（ソドーとう、Island of Sodor）は、ウィルバート・オードリー牧師の絵本シリーズ『汽車のえほん』およびその映像化作品『きかんしゃトーマス』の舞台である架空の島。アイリッシュ海上のマン島とイギリス本土カンブリア州のバロー＝イン＝ファーネスの間に存在するとされ、実在するウォルニー島 (Walney Island) を含んでいる。 の通り、ソドーの名は英国国教会に実在する「ソドー・アンド・マン教区」 (Diocese of Sodor and Man) に由来する。ギリシャのロドス島（Ródos）を逆から読んだものという説は誤り。 一部のネット記事などでオーストラリアのパッフィンビリー鉄道がソドー島及びきかんしゃトーマスのモデルだと紹介されている事があるが、それは誤りである。 (ja)
