DID YOU KNOW? There is an alternate cover of the Thomas Saves the Day DVD with the Thomas logo on the back. This is so rare that I only saw this once in person when a store I went to had a remarkable stock of the carry case versions of Thomas DVDs. #TTTE

DID YOU KNOW? Edward the Great, Spic and Span, and Bold and Brave all got new titles when they were released on DVD in Hungary. The announcer reading the title card was not rerecorded, and Bold and Brave's DVD cover has both titles on it in different sections. #TTTE

[HungarianThomasFacts @HunTTTEFacts]

Edward the Great was initially called 'A verseny' (The race), and was changed to 'Nagy Edward', which is way closer to the English version. Something similar happened with Bold and Brave, which went from 'A sziklaszirt átka' (Curse of the cliffs) to 'Merészek és bátrak'-
