* AdaptationSpeciesChange: Well, vehicle change to be more accurate in the case of Carly. In the original show, Carly was a stationary crane who worked at Brendam Docks alongside Cranky. In this show however, she is a diesel engine with a large crane attached to her.



* AnthropomorphicShift: While in the books, the engines very much had the same limitations as real-life ones, here they can bounce around at whim, contort their chassis as if it were organic, and even use their wheels as arms and legs.

*** However in the first half of the 5th episode, Thomas helps with Annie and Clarabel.



* ChildLikeVoice: In contrast to the original show, most of the engines outside of Gordon, James, Annie & Clarabel and (possibly) the Troublesome Trucks sound like young children in the show.

Unrelated In The Adaptation is when family members in the source become unrelated in an adaptations. Although Thomas, Annie and Clarabel share a close bond, they are certainly not related to each other.


* AdaptationRelationshipOverhaul:
** Annie and Clarabel are no longer Thomas's coaches since the two coaches are now controlled by the adult engines (Gordon, James, Emily etc…).
** As opposed to the antagonistic rivalry they had in the original show, Thomas and Diesel in this show are good friends.

In 2020, [[Creator/{{Mattel}} Mattel Television]] announced a new co-production partnership with [[Creator/CorusEntertainment Corus Entertainment’s]] [[Creator/{{Nelvana}} Nelvana Studio]]. 104 11-minute episodes and two 60-minute specials were greenlit for the "Thomas & Friends" television series over two seasons. The new format will feature "a new look and story structure", original songs and Thomas as the hero of every episode.

Unlike the previous series, this one is 2-D animated and is the first in the franchise to not feature a narrator. It focuses on Thomas and his best friends Percy, Nia, Diesel and Kana as they work, play and learn on the Island of Sodor under the supervision of TeamDad Gordon. Thomas and his friends are depicted as much younger, and are now able to move themselves, no longer needing drivers or firemen. The episodes feature two segments each in a 11-minute format.

'''''Thomas & Friends: All Engines Go''''' is a ContinuityReboot of the original ''WesternAnimation/ThomasAndFriends'' series. Like the original series, the show is based on ''Literature/TheRailwaySeries'' by the Rev. W. Awdry and created by Britt Allcroft (which is always credited as creator for this series (and the original series after 2002) even if she has no involvement in the Thomas & Friends brand after 2002) that premiered in 2021. Originally announced as the 25th series of that show, it was later confirmed to be a new show with its own continuity and premise due to the original show being cancelled due to toy sales.

* AdaptationalPersonalityChange: The tank engine and tender engine age representation is more exaggerated here. The tank engines are much more childlike and hyperactive, even more mature ones like Nia seem more rambunctious. By contrast the tender engines often take the role of {{Reasonable Authority Figure}}s in place of Sir Thopham Hatt (or the Fat Controller in the UK), Gordon in particular is far more wise and reasonable with only a smidgeon of his pompous GrumpyOldMan persona.

It makes the later seasons of ''WesternAnimation/ThomasAndFriends'' (which also took a less realistic and over the top direction compared to ''The Railway Series'' and the original seasons) look grounded by comparison.
