Trivia

 * These books contain various retellings and adaptations of previous Railway Series stories.
 * The story of Down The Mine is also changed in these books, excluding the exchange with Thomas and Gordon at the beginning and beginning when Thomas is going to The Lead Mines. Instead of wanting to go past the danger sign, Thomas "does not see" the sign.
 * These books contain re-illustrated pictures from Branch Line Engines, Gordon the Big Engine, James the Red Engine, Main Line Engines, The Three Railway Engines, Troublesome Engines, The Eight Famous Engines, Stepney the "Bluebell" Engine, Small Railway Engines, Mountain Engines, Gallant Old Engine and Edward the Blue Engine.

Goofs

 * In one illustration, Duck is waiting for Bertie at a crossing. But by law, all engines have the right of way at level crossings.
 * In one of the illustrations, Alaric is said to be pushing "the Truck". However in the original story, it was actually Patrick.
