## Trivia

* Emily's ERTL model has static large middle driving wheels, this is uniquely the only engine with a static pair of wheels.
* Emily is the first ERTL engine with a detailed cab interior.
* Emily's ERTL portrait depicts her with the handrails extending across her smokebox and connecting at both ends, whereas in the television series they did not reach her smokebox until series 23.
	+ She is also shown with a headlamp.
* Emily's ERTL collector card states that she is *the first female steam engine*. This is technically incorrect as Lady was the first female steam engine introduced, but Emily was the first to live on Sodor.
* The prototype Take Along Emily depicts her with black buffers. This also happened with Spencer.
* Emily's photo on her Take Along collector card is from the episode *Emily's New Coaches*.
* Emily is the only Steam Team member not released in the Diecast Metal range.
* Because it looks exactly like the Take Along model (and likely is), Emily's Take-n-Play prototype has six wheels on her tender, while the final model has four. This also applied with Molly and similarly happened with Big City Engine.
* The prototype Collectible Railway Emily depicts her with a Fowler tender.
* Emily's 2019-2021 Push Along models are the only versions of her in all die-cast ranges to have a small centre driving wheel rather then the iconic large centre driving wheels.
