Trivia

 * Hector has an Spanish accent in the American narration.
 * This episode aired before The Great Discovery premiered in the UK, meaning that children wouldn't have known who Stanley was or what Great Waterton was.

Goofs

 * When James puffs to the top of Gordon's Hill his wheels don't move.
 * When James arrives at Great Waterton, Thomas and Stanley have no snow on them.
 * It would be dangerous for James to use Hector as a snowplough, as this would damage his buffers.
 * When the trucks hit the snow, some of them derail, so bashing them would only make them derail more.
 * Wasn't going down the hill fast James' original idea before they got stuck in the snow?
 * James should have had a brakevan at the front of his train.
 * Wouldn't it be dangerous for a train to be pushed in snowy weather?
