Trivia

  • The last seven episodes of the series: Buckled Tracks and Bumpy Trucks, Mucking About, Cautious Connor, All in Vain, Tit for Tat, Mike's Whistle, and Useful Railway, were incomplete at the time Arc Productions went bankrupt and were finished off by Jam Filled Toronto after Jam Filled Entertainment bought the aforementioned studio.
  • Tracy-Ann Oberman joins the voice cast.
  • Only two episodes of this series were produced in 2015, the same year as the nineteenth series, Henry in the Dark and Henry Gets the Express. The rest of the episodes produced for this series at the time were all produced in 2016.
  • Only seven episodes were licenced to PBS (Sidney Sings, Diesel and the Ducklings, Saving Time, Letters to Santa, Love Me Tender, The Railcar and the Coaches, and Mucking About). However, The Christmas Coffeepot aired on Nickelodeon along with Terence Breaks the Ice from the following series. Other episodes from the series were eventually aired there following its official move in March 2018.
  • The episodes The Christmas Coffeepot and Over the Hill were not included on The Complete Series 20.
  • This is the first series of multiple things:
    • The first series of the CGI Series not to have any returning characters in CGI.
    • The first series since the fourth series to have adaptations of the Railway Series stories.
    • The first series to have music composed by Chris Renshaw after Robert Hartshorne and Peter Hartshorne's contracts ended after production of the nineteenth series and Sodor's Legend of the Lost Treasure.
    • The first series to feature the Skarloey Railway, but not to have any episodes dedicated to them.
    • The first series to have episodes animated by Jam Filled Toronto.
    • The first series since the sixteenth series where Thomas appears in every episode, but does not speak in all of them.
    • The first series since the fourteenth series that some episodes would be released in a past year during production with the rest being produced a year later.
    • The first series since she joined the voice cast in King of the Railway not to have Rebecca O'Mara as part of the voice cast. It is also the first series not to have Jonathan Broadbent as a part of the voice cast since he joined in the seventeenth series.
    • The first and currently only series since her debut in the tenth series in which Rosie does not appear, possibly due to her model being reworked.
    • The first series where Timothy does not appear since his introduction in Tale of the Brave.
  • This is the second series of two things:
    • The second series not to have Thomas' name titled in any of the episodes, with the first being the fifteenth series.
    • The second series to have 28 episodes, the first being the tenth series.
  • This is the only series for a few things:
    • The only series to date in where Spencer, Skarloey and Mavis appear, but do not speak since their introductions.
    • The only series to have half of its episodes animated by Arc with the other half being animated by Arc/Jam Filled.
    • The only series to date since their returns in the seventeenth series in which Bill and Ben do not appear.
    • The only series to date in where Charlie, Dart and Reg do not appear since their introductions.
    • The only series to date where Wellsworth Scrap Yard does not appear since its return in Tale of the Brave.
