Trivia

- The first Anchor Bay Entertainment DVD release to feature the Engine Roll Call in the menus.
- The first DVD to use images of DVDs on the back of the booklet.
- The prototype cover was in the same color as the 2002 release of Sing-Along and Stories and featured a scene from What's the Matter with Henry?
- On the Hulu release, the original UK opening titles are used and the episodes are in widescreen but remain the same. There Once Was an Engine Who Ran Away is also replaced by Engine Roll Call.
- On the Xfinity front cover, the image shot is used from Percy and the Carnival.
- This is the only US VHS/DVD release to include all the episodes and songs on the release.
Goofs
- The title card for What's the Matter with Henry? does not have a question mark.
- Some DVD copies have the spine off center, possibly due to factory errors.
- In What's the Matter with Henry? when Emily asks Henry if he is alright, on the DVD subtitles Henry says "I'm stumped" instead of "I'm stuck".
- The captions spell Toby's name as "Tobby."
