Added DiffLines:

* JustTrainWrong: This is PlayedForLaughs in the show's usual fashion...
** Rabbit and Tigger [[InvokedTrope invoke this]] in the opening scene when they notice Christopher Robin's toy train lacks a propellor and rudder.
** In the Western fantasy, the tender seems to lack a water tank. Tigger can walk through the whole train even though it includes a boxcar, and the locomotive comes equipped with a brake pedal like an automobile would have. Then again, as Pooh puts it, "[[ImagineSpot It's a fantasy.]]"


Added DiffLines:

* LimitedSoundEffects: That StockSoundEffect of a BombWhistle (originally a Creator/HannaBarbera effect) is heard seven times in the first act alone, and it gets pretty repetitive.


Added DiffLines:

* NonFatalExplosions: The train [[StuffBlowingUp violently blows up]] while colliding with Sheriff Piglet's handcar, but nobody is even hurt in the explosion, let alone killed.


Added DiffLines:

* RecycledSoundtrack: Some music originally written for "[[Recap/TheNewAdventuresOfWinnieThePoohS1E12PawAndOrder Paw and Order]]" gets reused during the Western fantasy.


Added DiffLines:

* RunawayTrain: Much of the Western fantasy in the first act plays this trope out when Tigger and Pooh end up unable to control or stop the train as it keeps going faster. This also happens for part of the second act when Tigger attempts to ResurrectTheWreck, only for his crude reconstruction to start speeding through town on its' own and wreak havoc. But since this is ''Winnie the Pooh'', HilarityEnsues, and nobody gets hurt when the train eventually crashes (twice).
* ShaggyDogStory: By the end of the Western fantasy, Sheriff Piglet is saved and lets Tigger off with a warning, but the train has been completely destroyed once again (Fortunately, Christopher Robin's toy train is just fine in reality).

* CowboyEpisode: More like Outlaw Episode since Pooh and Tigger are train robbers.
* HeroAntagonist: Piglet, Rabbit and Eeyore are the sheriff and deputy’s who uphold the law.

* TrainJob: The entire episode’s premise.
* VillainProtagonist: Pooh and Tigger are train robbers and the episode focuses mostly on them getting a redemption arc.
* WithFriendsLikeThese / ToxicFriendInfluence: Tigger reveals that he dragged Pooh into his criminal habitat and he (Tigger) stole the train. In the episode’s beginning, Tigger, in a purely Eddie Haskell-like moment, decides to play with the train set before it wanders out of Christopher Robin’s room.
