- Percy's Chocolate Crunch - Percy is often given the dirtiest work to do. There is a water shortage and the engines are restricted to fewer washdowns. The trucks play tricks on Percy and he gets covered in coal. Then on a job to the chocolate factory he skids and disappears through the chocolate factory. As he comes out of the other end he is covered in chocolate, but because he shows that usefulness comes before cleanliness, the Fat Controller rewards him with a washdown and a new paint job.

- This is the first DVD to not have any bonus features.

- The episodes are in 4:3 fullscreen on both the VHS and the DVD, since the episodes featured on the DVD and VHS use the same masters as aired on Nick Jr..
- In the episode selections, Bill and Ben's theme from the opening of Buffer Bother is heard on the first page, and the Fat Controller's theme from the end of Dunkin Duncan is heard on the second.
