Trivia

 * The name of the episode is a reference to the Elvis Presley song, "Love Me Tender".
 * This episode makes the first of several things:
 * The first episode where Rob Rackstraw voices Donald.
 * The first CGI Series episode to feature no television series exclusive characters.
 * The first instance in the television series where Donald and Douglas are referred to as brothers rather than twins.
 * The first time in the television series in which Donald is addressed to as "Donnie", and the second instance in which Douglas is referred to as "Dougie" (the first being the second season episode, Break Van), though it is the first time that he is addressed to directly with that nickname.
 * The first episode to feature Donald and Douglas as the main characters since the seventh season episode, Bad Day at Castle Loch.
 * The first episode since the seventeenth season episode The Switch not to have Keith Wickham as part of the voice cast.
 * The first episode where the Sodor Search and Rescue Centre appears, but without anyone who is part of the Search and Rescue team.
 * The episode has some similarities or references to earlier episodes:
 * Donald and Douglas are described as being "Practical, peppery and proud", the same description as in the sixth season episode, Twin Trouble. Also, both episodes are centred around the twins falling out.
 * The opening premise, of snow coming early to Sodor, heavier than usual, is similar to the second season episode, The Deputation. The twins run back to back with a Works Unit Coach between them as they patrol the line in the same manner as that episode.
 * Donald has to find Douglas, who is stranded in the snow, similar to how Victor had to find Kevin in the nineteenth season episode, Snow Place Like Home.
