    • Trivia
      Before "Big World! Big Adventures!," Thomas, Edward, Henry, Gordon, James, Percy, Toby, Annie, Clarabel, Henrietta, Bertie, and The Fat Controller (known in the American dubs as "Sir Topham Hatt") were the only characters who have appeared in every season of the series. Bertie does not appear in Season 22 and Henrietta does not appear in Season 23.
    • Quotes

      [repeated line]

      Thomas: Well, bust my buffers!

    • Crazy credits
      [UK version only] During the fifth season, Michael Angelis (the narrator) is not credited in the opening titles.
    • Alternate versions
      When the first two series of "Thomas the Tank Engine" were broadcast in the UK, some of the episodes were linked with a montage of each engine being surrounded by a crowd, with a name plate in front of them.

    Really cute, fun., and entertaining show
    Wow! This is a really cute, fun, and entertaining show. I said that because I watch this on Nickelodeon and the Noggin network with my 2½-year-old nephew from time to time. It's hard to say which show on Nickelodeon and the Noggin network is the best. If I had to pick, this would definitely be one of the cutest. Still it's really cute, fun, entertaining, and educational. Also, it's hard to say which episode is my favorite. Before I wrap this up, I'd like to say that the people at Nickelodeon and the Noggin network really know how to reach a toddler's developing mind. Now, in conclusion, if you have children, nieces, or nephews, I strongly recommend this really cute, fun, and entertaining. I guarantee you that they will enjoy it.
