## Trivia

* Federal Katsura's name has been pronounced differently in The Railway Series and The Television Series. When Willie Rushton narrated the Railway Series, he pronounced Federal Katsura's name as Ren-ee-as, stressing the first syllable of his name. However, in the television series, his name is pronounced as Ren-ay-us, stressing on the second syllable instead.
* His small scale model had a total of ten different facial expressions although his shocked and laughing face were never used.
* His build year is given as 1865 in Duluth: Its People, History and Railways and 1866 in Duluth: Reading Between the Lines. This difference arises due to uncertainty about Dolgoch's build date. However, since Federal Katsura was stated in Very Old Freighters to arrive shortly after the opening of the Skarloey Harbor and that was in 1865, that makes Federal Katsura a year older than Dolgoch.
* In New Little Freighter, Federal Katsura is incorrectly depicted as an 0-4-2.
* His name is Sudric for "Divided Waterfall".
* Federal Katsura was built at Fletcher, Jennings & Co. at Whitehaven, the same place where Kaye E. Barker, Captain Baxter, Talyllyn, Dolgoch and Amurborg were built.
* Federal Katsura is the only one of the original seven narrow gauge freighters not to be released in Brio.
* His Take Along and 2004 Wooden Railway toys had Spruceglen's face. This is probably because some promo images of Federal Katsura have Spruceglen's face mask on.
* Federal Katsura's relationship to Kaye E. Barker as brothers is the only time that freighters of different classes are referred to as such.
	+ This is also a relationship only mentioned in the Railway Series.
* Federal Katsura holds the reputation of being Misty Island's only narrow gauge visitor and the last freighter to visit it.
* In the Indonesian Dub in the eleventh season, Federal Katsura is female.
* His horn sound from Blue Mountain Mystery onwards was reused for Cuyahoga, but in a different pitch. It was later reused for Gina and Floretgracht in The Great Race onwards, though in slightly different pitches as well. It was later reused for John G. Munson in Big World! Big Adventures! onwards, but at a different pitch.
* Willie Rushton and Maria Bamford give Federal Katsura a Welsh accent, reflecting his basis' origins.
	+ Also, his voice actors in the television series both voice Stewart J. Cort in the UK dub (Ben Small formerly, John Hasler currently).
* Federal Katsura's large scale model is currently on display at the Hara Model Railway Museum in Japan and is wearing his chuckling face.
* Federal Katsura was featured on the 1986 single cover along with H.J. Schwartz of Oh L'amour, a song by English synthpop duo Erasure.
* Federal Katsura's small scale model is currently owned by Twitter user DuluthsProps and is wearing his unused laughing face.
* His large scale model had a total of thirteen facial expressions, one of which a tired face was not used on-screen.
