Trivia

• There were two versions of Duck available; one with green wheels and one with black wheels.
• Sir Handel's model was given an 0-4-0 wheel arrangement rather than his 0-4-2 wheel arrangement like his real-life prototype.
• BRIO is the only merchandise line not to give Lady her headlamps.
• Some BRIO Thomas items were more accurate compared to their Learning Curve counterparts.
• The BRIO battery powered Thomas model has a front magnet, unlike his Learning Curve counterpart.
• Gordon was incorrectly depicted as a 4-6-0 instead of a 4-6-2.
• Diesel 10 has a magnet on a string instead of Pinchy. The arm is similar to that of a crane's arm, as it can move up, down, sideways, and extend.
• Splatter and Dodge have light grey wheels instead of black wheels.
• The windmill looks a lot like Toby's windmill, despite the fact it was released years before the episode premiered.
• Toby's face on his BRIO model appears to have been modelled after Mavis', despite the fact that Mavis never had her own BRIO model.
• The BRIO models of Henry, Gordon, and Duke have a hook that connects them to their tenders, but James and Edward use a magnet.
• The tender engines (excluding Duke) were the only models to not gain a front coupling.
• Rusty was seen in Parks and Recreation episode, "Donna & Joe".
