Trivia
- The filedates of the DVD show that it was finished on June 15, 2006.
- This release marks the first of several things:
- Other than the promotional DVDs, Fun with Thomas, Quarry Adventures on Sodor, The Story of Thomas and the Jet Engine, Thomas to the Rescue and the Take Along DVDs (excluding Thomas Tries His Best and the 2007 DVDs), this marks the first mainstream DVD release in the US not to have been released on VHS.
- This is the first time the opening of Thomas' crew getting him ready for another days work, and the ending of Thomas going back to the sheds was used in the US as it was paired in UK airings of Series 9 on Nick Jr. in 2005, despite the opening being on the Brazil DVD New Adventures of Thomas.
