Calling All Engines! is a series of informative and interactive segments released alongside the seventeenth, eighteenth and nineteenth series of Thomas & Friends. They are hosted by Sir Topham Hatt and Sir Robert Norramby. Most of the segments feature one engine and a few of them feature two engines.
Some of the segments were originally released on the official Fisher-Price website.

Trivia
- Specially made footage was used for the "Who's That Engine?" segments.
- In the Dutch dub of the series, the segments are called "Alle Locomotieven Verzamelen!", which translates to "All Locomotives Gather!".
- In the "Who's That Engine?" segment featuring Thomas, one of the clues the Fat Controller uses to describe him are "six small wheels, a short stumpy funnel and a short stumpy dome", which is a direct reference to the first series episode, Thomas and Gordon.
- Thomas and Gordon's Really Useful Engine segments were updated on the Fisher-Price website.
Goofs
- In a close-up shot, smoke is not coming out of Thomas' funnel on his "Who's That Engine" segment.
- In Gordon's "Who's that engine" segment, his buffer beam is referred to as a "buffer". This is because the clips are taken from the sixteenth series episode Bust My Buffers!, where the same error happens.
- Toby's segment states that he does not have a whistle, however Toby does and has used his whistle before, excluding the thirteenth series episode, Toby's New Whistle.
- In the "Who's That Engine?" segment featuring Gordon, in one shot he is pulling express coaches, whilst in the next shot he is pulling red branch line coaches.
- In the UK version of the Old Reliable Edward segment, the Earl uses the term "pants" when he should have said "trousers".
- In the "Who's That Engine?" segment featuring Emily, she is seen pulling nothing, yet when she is fully revealed, she is pulling red branch line coaches.
