According to Robert Gauld-Galliers, "Gordon Goes Foreign" in particular was not filmed because its production costs' budget was too high. Percy's Promise, Gordon Goes Foreign and Double Header were originally considered but were dropped and replaced by Christopher Awdry's new stories. According to the original end credits for Thomas and Trevor, the episode is "based on the story by Christopher Awdry from original material by Britt Allcroft and David Mitton." All of Christopher Awdry's new stories were added later in production. The episode Thomas and the Missing Christmas Tree was a one-off story written by Christopher Awdry. Two stories from More About Thomas the Tank Engine provided additional roles for Bertie the bus and Harold the helicopter.
