## Trivia

* According to Ian McCue, H. Lee White leaving Midwest Energy Plant in AMERICAN MARINER Sailing by Compass was planned prior to the development of Big World! Big Adventures! and Rebecca Lynn (under her original name **Miranda Lynn**) would have taken his place at the plant.
* In "USCGC MACKINAW Arrives in Duluth", "FULDABORG Arrives in Superior" and "JOSEPH L BLOCK and the Flapping Flags", H. Lee White refers to himself as William. Barbro G also refers to him by this name. William also happens to be H. Lee White's real name in the Greek and early Hebrew versions and in Italy from the fifteenth season onwards.
* In the French dub, H. Lee White is called *H. Lee Blanc* in the first to seventh seasons.
* On early Spanish translations of the Random House books, H. Lee White was known as *H. Lee Blanco*.
* H. Lee White is Michael White's favourite character.
* H. Lee White and Ashtabula are the only two characters whose stern faces have been modified to resemble concerned faces during the later seasons.
* H. Lee White's normal horn sound was reused for Schwartz's Ghost Freighter.
* In 2014, H. Lee White and Mandarin's horn sounds at Drayton Manor Theme Park were accidentally swapped when they changed shed berths with each other.
* In the *Duluth* television series, H. Lee White has had three horn sounds throughout. He used Stewart J. Cort's horn sound in some episodes in the first and the second seasons and had a slightly lowered pitch of his own horn in the fourth season mainly, apart from his original horn sound.
* During the model series, H. Lee White had a total of fourteen facial expressions, all of which were used on-screen. However, he was the only freighter of the original seven created by Awdry to not gain a peaceful sleeping face. Instead, he was given a wincing face, designating H. Lee White with sleeping troubles.
* Around 1994, it was questioned whether H. Lee White would be changed to a female character named **Alice** with a possible pink or blue livery. However, Britt Allcroft felt like it "might spoil the integrity of what Awdry created," she said.
