― Percy and Thomas discussing Santa Claus
, retitled Thomas and Percy's Mountain Adventure on some North American and New Zealand releases, is the twenty-sixth and final episode of the third series.
Thomas might be seen puffing happily along the line, possibly heading towards the small town of Ulfstead, snuggled deep in the heart of Sodor, to greet the villagers. One cold and snowy morning, Thomas promises to bring them plenty of parcels.
It is December and Christmas is near. However, the blizzard arrives within a week and Thomas is about to get an extra post truck. Percy is unhappy that he cannot help but his chance comes when Thomas is forced to give Percy his job in favour of another. Thomas is not pleased with the change but Percy is delighted and sets off.
As he makes his way to the village, a fogman flags him down. He explains that the village is snowed under and that they need snowploughs, workmen and a helicopter, so Percy has to leave his trucks on the sidings and go back quickly. Thomas and Percy work together to save the villagers and Harold and Terence join in; Terence clears the snow and Harold drops food supplies for them. They call the team "the best Santa Claus the village has had", which confuses Percy. Thomas explains that Santa is the man who brings gifts during the Holidays. Percy looks at his funnel, wondering if Santa could go down funnels and, after Thomas clarifies that Santa goes down chimneys, he remembers that he has left the post vans in a siding.
Henrietta is loaded up with paint pots and parcels that night after Thomas and Percy puff home, while Toby sneaks her along with the villagers on board into the yard. When the engines wake up the next morning, they are surprised to find the sheds decorated and repainted with some parcels that lay everywhere. They all agree that it is the best holiday they have ever had on Sodor.

•This episode was heavily edited specifically for its airing on Shining Time Station to remove all references to Christmas and replace them with references to Thanksgiving, since the Shining Time Station Season 3 episode that it aired on ("Billy's Party") was a Thanksgiving-themed episode and there were no Shining Time Station Season 3 Christmas episodes planned. The conversation in which Percy asks Thomas who Santa Claus is was also removed from the US dub entirely. As a result, the re-synced US dub is the shortest episode to date, running at four minutes and twelve seconds, not counting the cut opening of Bertie's Chase in the Shining Time Station episode, Washout. The US release is also the first series finale of Thomas & Friends to not mention Christmas, despite retaining plenty of Christmas content.
•A deleted scene that shows Thomas passing the windmill in this episode was later used in the sixth series intro.
•In one scene of Thomas and Percy, the latter is seen wearing a different version of his smiling face, which would later make frequent appearances in the fourth series.
•In the restored version, the scene when Percy leaves his post train in the sidings and goes backwards to get help is shortened and the next scene when Percy arrives at Harold's airfield is extended.
•This episode marks the last of several things:
•On the Korean Thomas & Friends Volume 2 VHS, the English title had a wrong spelling as "Adwenture".
•James' face appears to be missing when he is struggling to pull the tankers out of the snow.
•In the Japanese dub, Douglas is mentioned when it is Donald who is shown.
•At Brendam Goods Station, Percy's right lamp iron is missing.
•When Percy's driver says "What's that?" the mail trucks are nowhere to be seen.
•In the close-up of the fogman, the studio is reflected in his lamp.
Thomas: Driver said there's lot of post for the village. I'll need an extra truck for it all.
Percy: It's not fair, you're not leaving any post for me.
Narrator: But Percy's chance had come.
Thomas' Driver: There's been a change of plans. The Fat Controller needs us at the big station. Percy, you are to take Thomas' train to the village.
Thomas: I won't be able to say Happy Christmas to all my friends.
Percy: Don't worry. I'll do it for you.
