## Trivia

* A book released to promote Track Stars included a prototype cover, which Percy was not on, and a different description hinting the focus would not just be on Thomas, Percy, Emily, and James, but Edward, Gordon and Henry as well, but Edward does not speak in two episodes and he makes a cameo in two episodes and Henry makes a cameo in four episodes.
* Track Stars was the last independent US release from HiT Entertainment. All future releases would be distributed by other companies (starting with 20th Century Fox on Tales from the Tracks).
* This is the first DVD in the US to feature the Latin American Spanish language track.
* A Latin American Spanish version of this DVD was later released in the US and Latin America, distributed by 20th Century Fox, but the DVD only included Spanish audio track and it had no menus. Despite being a Spanish-only release, the Thomas & Friends logo on the cover and all text remained in English.
* A double feature of the Spanish DVD and a Spanish DVD of Milkshake Muddle was later released by Lionsgate in 2011.
* In the Character Gallery, a snapshot of Percy at Tidmouth Sheds from *Thomas and the Magic Railroad* is used.
* In this DVD, Kipper does not appear in the Sneak Peeks, but in some of the other US HIT DVDs, trailers for that show appear.
* In the Read along section, Instrumental music from the episodes on the DVD can be heard.
* 2009 US DVD reprints include a bonus episode of Roary the Racing Car.
* On the 2014 re-release in the fun and games section, the DVD-ROM Depot and HiT Extras are removed.
* The picture of Thomas and Gordon on the Romanian release is mirrored.
* The VHS has no previews.
* This is the only US/Canadian VHS/DVD to include Percy's Big Mistake, Emily's New Route, Thomas Gets it Right and As Good as Gordon.

## Goofs

* In the fun and games menu, Percy's wheels are not moving and his buffer housings are black instead of red.
* In the James' Colors of Sodor game:
	+ In Level 1, James states that Wilbert is one of the purple engines alongside Lady. This is not true, as Wilbert is actually dark blue.
	+ In Level 2, James mispronounces Farmer McColl's name as Farmer *McCool*.
	+ In Level 3, Gordon and Emily are missing their tenders and one of Salty's stripes by his face are blue.
* In the Thomas' A-maze-ing Adventures game, the narrator says that Thomas fired up his boilers, but Thomas only has one boiler.
* Michael Angelis is credited as narrator in the opening of the Norwegian DVD, even though it was redubbed.
* In Universal Home Entertainment re-releases, after going to the DVD menu on HiT Entertainment Auto Play, it takes you to the Fun and Games menu for unknown reasons instead of the main menu just like the Universal re-release of Thomas and the Really Brave Engines and Other Adventures.
* On the Songs and More menu, Guess the Engine is titled *Name That Engine*.
* In the Universal Home Entertainment re-release, the program plays when you select Menu in the Character Gallery instead of Fun and Games menu.
* On Sodor Activity Depot:
	+ In Create Your Own Thomas and Friends Story:
		- Farmer McColl's name is misnamed Farmer *McCool*.
		- Brendam is called *Brendham*.
		- When an engine is pulling the mail with Percy, he is seen pulling coaches.
		- Mavis does not have Ffarquhar Quarry name on her side at the start.
	+ In Coloring Sheets:
		- Mavis does not have her name or Ffarquhar Quarry on her side.
* On the US and Latin American discs, it says 2005 instead of 2006, Suggesting that this DVD was being prepared for release in late 2005.
