Trivia

 * The Culdee Fell Railway was mentioned for the first and only time in the television series in a learning segment about the differences between the narrow gauge and standard gauge. According to the segment, Mr. Percival is in charge of the railway.
 * Culdee Fell was featured in Railway Adventures but was erroneously portrayed as a standard gauge station.
 * In a 2015 interview, railway consultant Sam Wilkinson stated that the Culdee Fell Railway had always been on the list to be created, but this would require a lot of time, resources, and money to create. Also, since there is no live-action reference, everything would have to be done from scratch.
 * Wilkinson's statement that there is no live-action reference is not true, as the railway is based on the Snowdon Mountain Railway in Gwynedd, north-east Wales.
 * Between 1995 to 2000, Godred, Culdee, Lord Harry and Catherine were featured as characters on The Official Website's Engine Depot page . Culdee would also be featured as a hidden character page on the 2010-2015 Official Website.
