This was the first US DVD to open with the 2003 Anchor Bay Entertainment logo.
At the very end of Thomas and the Missing Christmas Tree, the last few seconds of footage is played backwards and the twinkling Christmas lights can be heard before the start of the end theme.
On Vudu and iTunes, the release is in widescreen.
In the 2014 re-release, Web Fun was removed for unknown reason.

GoofsEdit

George Carlin is not given screen credit as one of the narrators.
In the DVD menu, Percy incorrectly says "You can play all the adventures of Thomas' Christmas Wonderland".
In Sodor Special Deliveries, Terence's letter spells Mrs. Kyndley's name wrong.
The back cover of the DVD says "Thomas' Order Fun" but on the DVD, it is Percy's Order Fun.
Writers Christopher Awdry, Britt Allcroft, David Mitton, Jenny McDade, and Paul Larson are not listed in the credits.
Henry says on the selection screen that you can sing along to his favorite songs but there is only one song on this release.
