Trivia
- The Back Cover shows a Deleted Scene of Gordon pulling the Goods Train in The Trouble with Mud.
- The 1st Line of the Description is a Parody of the Opening Titles for "Superman."
- Unlike Thomas, Percy and James' "Best of" videos, that/this release includes actual Nameboard Intermissions.
- The Last Few Seconds of Gordon Takes a Dip are cut out.
- Whistles and Sneezes and Tender Engines come from Daisy and Other Thomas Stories, as the Episode Titles and Following Nameboard Sequences are the Same as they were on the Latter Release. On the VHS Version, the Episodes echo as they did on the Daisy VHS, though these were replaced with cleaner sound masters on the DVD Release.
- An Audio Cassette Tape was included with some VHS releases for a Limited Time. It featured the Following Songs:
- On the Original Release, The "Britt Allcroft Presents" Logo Sequence is cut out, but is reinstated on the VUDU Digital Release.
- The VUDU Digital Release opens with the Current Thomas and Friends Logo.
- The VHS and DVD have different Anchor Bay Entertainment logos at the Beginning. The VHS opens with the Silent 1998 Anchor Bay Entertainment Logo, while the DVD opens with the 2003 Anchor Bay Entertainment Logo.
- The Credits from Percy's Chocolate Crunch and Other Thomas Adventures are used and because of that/this, David Maidment, Britt Allcroft and David Mitton are not credited for the Episodes written. Brian Trueman is incorrectly given credit for the Stories instead and the Nick Jr. Logo is seen after the Credits.
- That's/This is the Last US VHS to use the 1998 Anchor Bay Entertainment Logo.
Goofs
- On the Back Cover, A Better View for Gordon is just called "Better View for Gordon."
- At the End of the Intermission on VHS, just before "Tender Engines," it is said that a Music Video would follow. That/This was corrected on the DVD Release.
- "Gordon and the Famous Visitor" and "Wrong Road" both have overlapped and warped audio respectively on the VHS Version. That's/This is corrected on the DVD Release.
- Thomas and Gordon both have Edward's Whistle Sound.
