Trivia

 * Several workmen are currently on display at Drayton Manor.
 * What the workmen wear would be considered unsafe by modern standards. For example they do not wear hardhats, safety vests, or eye protection. This is because the TV series is set before the 1970s. However, some episodes show quarry workmen and miners wearing hardhats and, since the CGI switch-over hardhats and eye protection have been more present.
 * A "Pack scale" workman (along with two heads) was preserved to the Top Props preservation group.

Merchandise

 * Wooden Railway (set of four workmen) (discontinued)
 * Brio (discontinued)
