Trivia

 * Going by production order, this is the thirteenth episode of the twenty-fourth series.
 * This marks the last of few things:
 * The final appearances of Sonny and Rocky.
 * The final appearance of Harold and Sir Topham Hatt's Car in the original series.
 * The finale episode where David Stoten writes the episode by himself.
 * Toby's final speaking role in the original series as well as his final starring role.
 * The final episode to feature the newly updated Engine Roll Call song at the end.
 * Dianna Basso's final episode as consulting director and the last episode to have her involved in production.
 * This marks two things for the Rickety Old Bridge:
 * Its only appearance following its first appearance in the sixth series episode, Toby Had a Little Lamb and thus its final appearance overall.
 * Its only appearance in full CGI.
 * This episode marks the first of two things:
 * The first time Toby's shed has been referred to by name since the fifteenth series.
 * The first episode where Lower Arlesburgh is referred to by name and the first time it is acknowledged in some way since the first series episode, Toby and the Stout Gentleman.
 * In Poland, this episode premiered before A New Arrival, so the audience would not know who Sonny or Ruth are.
 * When Harold warns Toby to stop when the bridge had broken, it is similar to how he saved Toby in the fifth series episode, Toby and the Flood.
 * This episode was never aired in Germany and South Korea.
 * In the Estonian, Latvian, Lithuanian and Baltic Russian dubs, the UK dub can be heard in the background as a dubbing track was not used.

Goofs

 * When Rocky is loading parts of the broken bridge into Emily's trucks, his piston rods are floating.
 * The support cables on Thomas' flatbeds are angled a short distance farther from the load.
