Visible crew/equipment: In the shot where Diesel 10 races past Thomas and Gordon near the beginning, you can see a black pencil on the left of the screen.

Plot hole: Throughout the film, Sodor seems to be devoid of humans besides Bertie's driver and the live-action humans. Also, the engines with the exception of Lady do not have crews.

Continuity mistake: When Diesel 10 is hanging, he's vertical. But in the next shot, he falls horizontally.

Other mistake: During the chase scene as the engines go through the tunnel, there is a figurine sitting on the back of Diesel 10. This happens to be the film's original antagonist, P.T. Boomer who was cut from the movie. However, the crew forgot to remove the Boomer figurine from Diesel 10.

Revealing mistake: As Diesel 10 leaves after overhearing Thomas and Percy, a red wire can be seen in his cab.

Revealing mistake: In Thomas' first appearance, he has no cab doors. He continues to not have cab doors throughout the movie except for a few shots.
