OK, I'll give you that MOST home viewers would not catch the technical flaws. However, how do you explain all the special effects "fire & sparks" at EVERY WHEEL, when the train supposedly "had no brakes"???? I'll bet even the "average arm-chair viewer" may have wondered about THAT.

 

What can you do?  As with most TV and movies, it's "artistic license."  Matt

 

 

I enjoyed it as entertainment.  Anyone notice the steamer in the "rail yard."  What line is this that still has a steamer on their operating tracks?    I did make a comment to my wife about the air line popping when he applied the breaks, and about the sparks from all the wheels when he put "reversed the polarity" of the motors.  But it was still a fun watch and exciting.
