Starring: Alec Baldwin, Michael Brandon, Ben Small, Martin Sherman, Michael Angelis
Deliberate mistake: Due to the production order, Arthur can be seen at the quarry, but his introduction is 6 episodes later, in "The Spotless Record."
Deliberate mistake: When Thomas goes by the level crossing, a close up of Thomas is shown but it's the same footage from season 1, only flipped. Because of this, Thomas' number is mirrored.
Plot hole: When Duck and Diesel leave the shed, Diesel follows Duck instantly, but the tracks they are on both lead to the turntable. As they are on different tracks to each other, it would be impossible for Diesel to follow Duck that quickly as the turntable could only be set to one track at a time.
Bill and Ben: We're not playing. We're rescuing our trucks.
Trivia: The events of this episode were remade in CGI for the 2015 special, The Adventure Begins.
Question: How did they get the broken down train at the scene of the crash without any calls?
