  • One episode of this season was released on VHS, Sweet and Sour.
  • The Thomas the Tank Engine and Friends episodes, "Pop Goes the Diesel" and "Diesel's Devious Deed" were shown out of order in this season rather than the previous season. The third story in the Duck and Diesel trilogy ("A Close Shave for Duck") would not be seen until the following season.
  • Two of the episodes in this season feature a first in the series: both episodes feature only one story of Thomas the Tank Engine each. This would become more commonplace in the next season.
