Trivia

 * The engines are based on their My First Thomas counterparts, making this the only Thomas book in which the characters are modelled after toys or any type of merchandise at the time.
 * When the book was originally published, there was controversy due to recycled leftovers from a guide book aimed at adults when a parent named Lynn Gilbert found inappropriate words for children behind the sound effects board, which had come unglued. According to the Illinois publisher, the China based printer accidentally glued the recycled adult manual leftovers inside the book. When the mistake was discovered, the book was recalled immediately and the printer was warned to make sure such mistakes would not happen again.

Goofs

 * All the steam engines have incorrect whistle sounds.
 * Edward's buffers are red instead of black.
