## Production

The episode was first hinted at the end of the remastered version of TRAINS-4MERS, where Vector explained to the viewers that his father's YouTube channel needs more subscribers (or "subs") to get Opthomas Prime back online. Over a year later, on January 5, James Farr has confirmed that Trains-Formers would be receiving a reboot to his YouTube channel reaching 500,000 subscribers. According to him, once he reaches the 500,000 subscriber goal, Trains-Formers will be making its big, long-awaited return.

## Trivia

* This is the first episode to have sprite accuracy.
* Some freight cars from Thomas' train in TRAINS-4MERS make an appearance.
* This is the first episode to be released in the 2020s decade.
* The old 2009 "OH, COME ON!" phrase comes back from TRAINS-FORMERS.
* The plot point where every engine on Sodor combines into a giant robot to defeat the villain was reused from the cancelled TRAINS-FORMERS 5.
* This is the first episode to have music composed by filmmaker James Farr.
* The episode contains a reference to Engine Roll Call.

## Errors

* All of the engines' buffer housings are black.
* Stepney's, Molly's and Emily's buffers are back instead of silver.
* Like in TRAINS-FORMERS 200T, Gordon is missing his whistle and safety valves.
* Rusty, Duncan and Victor are seen running on standard gauge tracks even though they are narrow gauge engines.
	+ Reg is also seen travelling on normal rails even though he is a scrapyard crane.
* Every time Thomas is seen in profile, his wheels and side rods clip through his running board and his rear footplate has a dip on it, much like his Hornby model.
* When Ryan is first seen on screen, he appears elongated.
* Emily's funnel appears to be layered behind her smokebox and not on top of the latter.
* Gina's wheels are black instead of red.
* Toby appears to be oversized.
* Bash and Dash have the same exact face.
* Rocky is seen moving on his own power.
	+ Additionally, he is missing his flatbeds used for stabilization of his crane arm.
* Like in TRAINS-FORMERS, the crossing signs and gates are on the wrong side of the road.
* A section of Bill and Ben's cab roofs are transparent.
* Stepney's side rods are not animated properly, because of this, they do not line up with his wheels and also clip through the rails below him.
* Percy's whistle and dome are black and dark gray respectively.
* Hiro's siderods are not attached to his rear driving wheels, making him a 2-6-4.
