  • The final six episodes of this series were sold to PBS, Milkshake, ABC, FOUR, Minimax and JimJam as part of the Series 19 block, despite being produced with the eighteenth series.
  • This series marks the first of many things:
  • This series marked the only series of a few things:
  • This series marked the last of several things:
    • The last series to have Ben Small and Martin Sherman as part of the voice cast:
    • The last series to have episodes written by Paul Larson and Laura Beaumont until the twenty-fourth series.
    • The last series to have Keith Wickham as the voice of Percy in the UK dub. Nigel Pilkington took over the role starting with the next series.
    • The last series to have Rokurō Naya as the Fat Controller in the Japanese dub.
    • The last series to have Duncan voiced by Chikara Osaka in the Japanese dub as well as the last series to have him as part of the Japanese voice cast, although he was supposed to reprise his role as Duncan in the twenty-fourth series episode The Great Little Railway Show, due to Tom Stourton declining the role (in which he would have to record one line of dialogue for Duncan) after Nobuaki Kanemitsu voiced Duncan in the twentieth series. It is the last series to have Hideyuki Kanaya as part of the Japanese voice cast.

  • According to Ryan Hagan of SiF, the episodes in Spills and Thrills were going to be part of this series.
  • In the Estonian, Latvian, Lithuanian, Baltic Russian and Vietnamese voice-overs, the UK dub can be heard in the background as a dubbing track was not used.
