== Trivia ==
* This series marks the first of several things:
** The first series to have episodes written by Camille Ucan and Rose Johnson.
** The first series to have the voice cast in the episode credits listed with the character(s) they voiced.
** This is the first time that Thomas, Gordon, James, Percy and Emily are seen in their new CGI models. They all gain additional rivets and handrails, while Gordon gains a second permanent lamp and Thomas gains a step on the front of his tanks. Emily also gains an additional handrail above her smokebox. These changes were done in order to fit in with Nia and Rebecca’s more detailed renders.
** The first series in which Tom Stourton voices Alfie respectively, since Nathan Clarke's departure from the series.
** Axel, Raul, Carlos, Frieda, Gina, Ivan, The Mainland Diesels, Fernando, Ace, Emerson and Cassia's first appearances in an episode.
** Fernando's first speaking role in the franchise.
** Jenny Packard's first appearance in full CGI.
** The Lead Mines' first appearance in full CGI.
** The first season to have two head writers for an episode since the nineteenth series.
** The first (and only) series in the Television Series in which Henrietta does not appear.
*This is the only series for a few things:
** The only series to date in which Flying Scotsman, Gator, Marion, Rusty, Judy, Jerome, Ace, Reg and Willie appear, but do not speak since their introductions.
** The only series to date in which Merlin, Hannah, Dexter and the Fat Clergyman do not appear since their debuts.
** The only series to date in which Spencer, Trevor, Jem Cole and Cyril the Fogman do not appear since their returns in Hero of the Rails, the nineteenth series, and the previous series.
** The only series to date since her repaint to red in Journey Beyond Sodor in which Rosie appears, but does not speak.
** The only series to date where Harwick does not appear since it's introduction in the twentieth series.
** The only series to date since they joined the voice cast in the eighteenth series, twentieth series and the Great Race not to have Rufus Jones, Joe Mills, Maggie Ollerenshaw and Tracy-Ann Oberman as part of the cast. It is also the only series to date since he joined the voice cast in the twenty-first series and Journey Beyond Sodor not to have Nicola Stapleton and Hugh Bonneville as part of the cast.
*This is the final series of a couple of things:
** The last series to feature the former steam team members as well as Harvey, Spencer, Whiff, Charlie, Mavis, Rex, Bert and Mike without added details, which they gain in Series 24.
** The last series to have Andrew Brenner as head writer, and the second time he has not written any episodes for the series since becoming head writer, the first being Series 21.
