Trivia

  • Going by production order, this is the thirteenth episode of the twenty-first series.
  • This is the first episode in the series to be fully animated by Jam Filled.
  • When Cranky makes a mess in front of Sir Topham Hatt and Salty, soundbytes from the nineteenth series episodes, Who's Geoffrey? and The Beast of Sodor were used.
  • The rail section Carly is situated on was previously seen in the episode, Stuck in Gear prior to her debut.
  • A shortened version of the episode, narrated by Joseph May as Thomas, can be found on the official YouTube channel and the Nick Jr website.
  • Cranky worrying that he'll be replace is similar to when Salty was worried if Porter is going to replace him.

Goofs

  • David Menkin is not credited in the UK credits for voicing Porter.
  • Steven Kynman is credited in the UK credits despite none of his characters speaking in that dub. This is likely because he was supposed to voice Porter in the UK version of the episode.
  • A section of Carly's rails run underneath Big Mickey.
