Description
2004 VHS/DVD:
PEEP! PEEP! All the engines on the Island of Sodor work very hard to keep things running smoothly on Sir Topham Hatt's railway. But even with all this hard work, sometimes unexpected things can happen. Who would have guessed that Thomas would rocket past the proud and fast Gordon, thanks to a surprising push from a jet engine? And is Percy's imagination getting the best of him, or are naughty gnomes really playing tricks around the old mine? Can horses fly? Well, Harold certainly can make them - especially when one needs a lift to a big Island celebration. And who says that engines are only Really Useful on the tracks? See how Salty and Fergus save the day when the light goes out on the Island's lighthouse during a big storm.
Join all of your Island friends as they go full steam ahead with some great adventures. And remember to always expect the unexpected!

Trivia
- This is the only release to have original music along with Michael Brandon's narration. On top of that, this is also the only release to have Michael Brandon credited in the Classic Series intro. This is the only Thomas and Friends Michael Brandon release to feature the Classic Series intro and end credits, but this is one of two Thomas releases by Michael Brandon to feature the nameboards, the other being Hooray for Thomas.
- When the DVD is viewed on a computer, it uses the same icon from the PC games such as The Great Festival Adventure and Trouble on the Tracks.
- On the front cover, Thomas is mirrored. However his number has been edited to face forwards.
- Salty's Stormy Tale is the only seventh season episode on this DVD that did not have its title card read on the PBS broadcast with New Series music.
- This is the only US DVD not to have the first story stop station page on the DVD guide booklet, the second/last page is used instead for this one.
Goofs
- During the opening of the DVD menu, steam is blowing from the top of Salty's cab instead of his exhaust pipe.
- Writers Ross Hastings, Robyn Charteris, Robin Kingsland and Brian Trueman are not listed in the credits.
- The Netflix Cover Is The Hooray for Thomas and Other Adventures DVD Cover. Therefore it features images from Hooray for Thomas! and Best Dressed Engine.
