Trivia

This was the first Thomas and Friends theme park in the world ever built.
At some point after the Japanese release of Hero of the Rails, the scene with Emily and Oliver in the Great Gatagogo Adventure ride was replaced with Hiro in his hiding spot. Oliver's model from this scene was moved to the end of the ride.
The Thomas and Percy Fun Ride had gone through several changes over the years:
- 2010
  - A James replica was built and replaced Lady as the third operating engine for the ride, with Lady's purple coaches repainted as Red Express Coaches, and Lady being shifted to the sidings by the Coal Hopper and Diesel 10.
- 2015
  - The double platform station before Henry's Tunnel was rebuilt into Dryaw, where Bertie was moved.
  - A Sodor Search and Rescue Centre replica with Flynn was built, where Harold was moved over to.
  - Henry's Tunnel went through a massive redesign: Henry (who was originally part of a reenactment of Henry and the Elephant) was flipped around and walled up (creating a reenactment of The Sad Story of Henry), Edward (originally in a shed near Knapford Station) was moved to the other end of the tunnel, with a replica of Kevin (shifting some Steamworks crates) added right next to him. The area where Henry was originally viewable is now covered up by a wall of "dirt" coated in dinosaur bones (referencing Tale of the Brave).
  - The shed where Edward originally resided was demolished and replaced with a replica of Sir Topham Hatt and Winston on a siding.
  - The crossing where Bertie was originally located was turned into a farm crossing, with Terrence being moved to the top of a hill just near it.
  - The Sodor Railways billboard towards the end of the ride were replaced by posters of Alicia Botti and Spencer offering "Mainland Direct" services).
  - Lady was removed and Diesel 10's shed was redecorated as the Dieselworks.
