Trivia

• Although the two are more commonly used as regular passenger coaches in All Engines Go (rather than being used virtually exclusively by Thomas as in previous iterations of the franchise), the Meet the Engines book states that Thomas still works with them.
• Unlike the original series, Annie and Clarabel have separate voice actors in the US dub instead of a shared one, more similar to the Japanese dub of the original series.
• Annie and Clarabel are currently the only female characters created by Wilbert Awdry to appear in All Engines Go.
• Prior to Wendy Patterson's casting in the second season, Catherine Disher and Linda Kash gave Annie and Clarabel British accents (though Clarabel's is more obvious than Annie's). After Patterson's casting, Disher and Kash gave the characters American accents, most likely to contrast Patterson's Yorkshire accent.
