Trivia

  • In the original script for the film, Patch would also have been portrayed as an adult, married to Lily. These framing sequences were filmed but cut, with Canadian actor Robert Tinkler playing an older Patch. Footage from this lost storyline is present in the final film via an overhead shot of a family riding their horses. Tinkler is still credited in the final film's credits.
  • In one of the original scripts of the movie, Patch rode his horse down the Magic Railroad to retrieve the truck of Sodor coal.
  • According to the character notes for the script of the movie, Patch was originally intended to be Irish. In some raw footage from filming on the Isle of Man, McMains can be heard attempting a minor Irish accent, including using the term "Mum" to refer to his mother, although in the finished film Patch's nationality appears to be American.[1]
