- Henry to the Rescue uses its UK title card.
Goofs
- Towards the end of Thomas Gets Tricked, a brief extract of Ringo Starr's narration can be heard when Gordon stops at Wellsworth and Thomas goes back to the turntable. Specifically, Ringo is heard saying the line "At last, they stopped at a station. Thomas was uncoupled and he felt very silly and exhausted" instead of George.
- Trouble for Thomas is out of sync.
