Trivia

  • In the trailer of the UK DVD, the spine of the DVD had the HiT Entertainment logo instead of the Mattel Creations logo meaning that HiT Entertainment was originally going to distribute the DVD.
  • This is the first DVD for a few things:
    • The first US DVD to use the Series 19-onward Engine Roll Call and credits, though the Series 13-18 opening titles are still used.
    • The first UK/AUS DVD to feature a Learn with Thomas and Mr. Perkins' Railway segments.
    • The first UK DVD to be distributed by Mattel Creations.
  • This is the last DVD for a few things:
    • The last US DVD to have the "Island of Sodor" opening sequence and the Series 13-18 intro.
    • The last AUS DVD to be released in a Carry-Case cover as Carry Me cases were losing popularity, thus future DVDs get released in normal standard covers starting from Team Up With Thomas.
    • The last US DVD to have HiT Entertainment logo on the spine.
    • The last US DVD to have the disc use artwork from the front cover.
  • The digital release is slowed down to 24 frames-per-second.
  • This DVD is used as Disc 2 of The Complete Series 20 as a bonus disc distributed by Mattel Creations.
  • On the UK DVD Episode Selection menu, each screenshot frame is in the shape of The Great Race logo.

Goofs

  • On the US DVD, the episode selection used a picture from The Little Engine Who Raced Ahead for The Missing Breakdown Train and Three Steam Engines Gruff used a picture from Reds vs Blues, but these two episodes are not on this release.
  • On the US DVD, there are several things wrong in the credits:
  • On the back cover and bonus features menu of the UK DVD, the Mr. Perkins' Railway segment is incorrectly listed as a Down at the Station segment.
