* SurprisinglyRealisticOutcome: Despite the numerous scientific liberties taken with the trains and how they function, several moments in the ''Race for the Sodor Cup'' movie were deconstructed.
** On two occasions, Percy tries to shout at Thomas and Kana to warn them of impending danger on the track, but they can't hear him. If you're several feet away from someone trying to shout at you, especially outside and trying to run a race, you won't be able to hear them clearly, if at all.
** Kana [[spoiler: and later Farona and Frederico]] derail by speeding on a track that spirals around a hill. [[spoiler: The only reason Kana doesn't do so the second time is because she was breaking, plus she had her delivery and Thomas to slow her down]]
** Farona and Frederico raise the drawbridge to try to prevent Thomas and Kana from crossing the river. They aren't disqualified. So rather than try to fix the drawbridge or try to invoke the HonorBeforeReason trope, they jump on a conveniently passing Bulstrode to pass. This would be considered cheating, but since their opponents did so and got away with it, it only makes sense for Thomas and Kana to do so as well.

* 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.

* DenserAndWackier: The show is much more wacky, unrealistic and over the top than anything Thomas related in the past. 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.
