Goofs

 * The original VHS release stated that there were two all-new episodes. Rusty Helps Peter Sam, however, had already been released on Rusty to the Rescue and Other Thomas Stories. This might be due to the fact that it is given the UK title, Trucks!
 * When Gordon and The Gremlins begins, it just shows the words Storyteller Alec Baldwin instead of the episode title.
