Trivia

  • Going by production order, this is the eighteenth and final episode of the twenty-first series. Additionally, this episode features Carly, who is introduced in the thirteenth and fourteenth episodes production-wise and thus all three of these episodes, plus this episode's predecessor, take place after the seventh and eighth episodes, due to Carly being missing from her gantry rails, Big Mickey lacking his face and Edward still being at Tidmouth.
  • This is Edward's final episode with a leading role.
  • When the episode aired on Milkshake!, it initially did not have any narration in the scenes of James' brakes failing and Edward sleepchuffing through a red signal. However, this was later fixed in the US and Japanese dubs, as well as the UK dub that was aired in Japan and released on the On the Go with Thomas DVD.
    • Additionally, when Edward sleepchuffs through a red signal, the narrator gasps and says "Then, there was trouble!"
  • The premise of this episode and Edward leaving Tidmouth Sheds was done in response to criticism of the show "not being diverse enough," in relation to there being only one female engine at Tidmouth Sheds. In addition, the engines talking about whose going to take Edward's berth is foreshadowing the arrival of Nia in Big World! Big Adventures!
  • There are several references to other episodes:
    • References to the nineteenth series episodes, The Little Engine Who Raced Ahead and Philip to the Rescue are made.
    • Philip mentions Dowager Hatt having a new hat, which is a callback to the twenty-first series episode Dowager Hatt's Busy Day, which also had the same writer.
    • The opening events of this episode takes place during the ending scene of The Fastest Red Engine on Sodor. Edited footage from said episode is also used with Gordon being edited out of the scene. Also, James' US scream from said episode is used when the flashback is shown.
    • The events of the twenty-second series episode, An Engine of Many Colours take place during this episode.
  • On the Nick Jr. US airing, this episode was paired with The Fastest Red Engine on Sodor.
  • This is:
    • The first appearance of Wellsworth Sheds since the fifth series episode Busy Going Backwards.
    • Jack's only appearance in an episode of the twenty-first series.
  • A shortened version of the episode, narrated by Joseph May as Thomas, can be found on the official YouTube channel and formerly on the Nick Jr. US website.
