Place Within The TV Series
There are some aspects of the film that do not coincide with the TV series. While the new sheds at Tidmouth and the Sodor Airport appear in the following seasons, the conflict between steam and diesel engines is yet to be permanently resolved in the series. Additionally, Diesel 10 and Lady have never been seen within a story of the TV series, so there is some debate that they belong to a continuity exclusive to the films, rather than the TV series.

Famous quotes containing the words place and/or series:
“The dignity to be sought in death is the appreciation by others of what one has been in life,... that proceeds from a life well lived and from the acceptance of one’s own death as a necessary process of nature.... It is also the recognition that the real event taking place at the end of our life is our death, not the attempts to prevent it.”
—Sherwin B. Nuland (b. 1930)
“The woman’s world ... is shown as a series of limited spaces, with the woman struggling to get free of them. The struggle is what the film is about; what is struggled against is the limited space itself. Consequently, to make its point, the film has to deny itself and suggest it was the struggle that was wrong, not the space.”
—Jeanine Basinger (b. 1936)
